Sabalenka's statement

The news of Koltsov's death has been full of twists and turns in the process of spreading.

Everyone first speculated on the cause of death, and then many people expressed their deep sympathy for Sabalenka. They speculated that she should withdraw from the Miami game and that it would take a long time to get over the blow.

After the rumors of blood clots falling off were disproven, some netizens were curious about the cause of the fall, so they revealed that Kortsov and Sabalenka had recently separated and reunited, and that her boyfriend was in financial distress and could not afford to have three children. medical expenses, and also participated in loan sharking and so on.

It seems that the current relationship between Sabalenka and her boyfriend and the reason why her boyfriend fell from the building may be different from what netizens guessed. There are a lot of privacy behind it that are inconvenient to disclose to the outside world.

The more secretive the parties concerned are, the more likely it is to arouse curiosity and speculation.

pavvy g, a user of x (the predecessor of Twitter) with 202,000 followers, published several tweets, which caused a lot of controversy. Pavvy not only characterized the incident as a conspiracy theory, but even pointed it to Djokovic.

The content of pavvy g’s tweets exposed online

“In the past few years, many young, healthy people have suddenly died, collapsed, had heart attacks, or developed cancer. Especially in countries with high vaccination rates, There are so many accidental deaths, why has there never been an independent investigation?" Pavvy wrote in one of the since-deleted tweets.

Then he launched a poll that made the situation even more complicated and worse.

"Why was the COVID-19 vaccine rolled out quickly and on a large scale without analysis of long-term health? Is this part of a plan to reduce the population?" pavvy asked a new question.

Logically speaking, this kind of wild conspiracy theory will not attract widespread attention, because most people will think that pavvy is really "too ridiculous."

But things are not that simple.

When Djokovic was deported from Australia for refusing vaccines, pavvy attracted widespread attention for making a series of fierce remarks, which gained him a large number of fans, including Djokovic and his wife Jelena They all followed him on x.

A user named flaviobert899 posted: "While x users across the tennis world are expressing their condolences and rallying around Sabalenka, this filthy man shamelessly and insensitively exploits this tragedy to spread anti-vaccination disinformation ."

Of course, this user also @Djokovic and his wife on x, and commented that Djokovic and his wife "actually followed this 'person'. Wow, well done. "

According to foreign media reports, pavvy tried to use the death of Sabalenka's boyfriend to promote that Djokovic was right to oppose vaccination, and elevated it to a conspiracy theory. Netizens also called on Djokovic Take off pavvy on x.

This conspiracy theory also attracted Djokovic and his wife to personally respond, “It’s hard to imagine how far this person (referring to pavvy) will go.”

Looking at the development of this tragic incident During the process, the speed of online reports was shocking, and the subsequent twists and turns were also quite surprising.

After the police ruled out the suspicion of murder, they still could not stop the curious desire of netizens for gossip. In the end, Djokovic unexpectedly took the blame and got involved in an anti-vaccination conspiracy theory that had nothing to do with it. I believe that even the most talented screenwriter cannot write a script with such a unique brain circuit.

A foreign website commented on this that the life of any celebrity is often closely watched because of the most trivial things. In fact, they are sometimes criticized, even if they are not necessarily at fault, and tennis stars like Djokovic are not immune.

For us netizens, in this world of information explosion and diverse opinions, we must always keep our eyes open, distinguish truth from rumors, develop the habit of independent thinking and calm judgment, and cannot be easily influenced by others. With rhythm.

Kolzov, his ex-wife and three children were pictured together

Finally, back to the incident itself.

In this morning’s interview, Kortsov’s ex-wife Mikhailova also mentioned Sabalenka, whom she accused of destroying their marriage four years ago, but she had already cleared up the past in her words: “She is a good girl. , the post back then was just an emotional product. I was in pain at that time, and I loved Koltsov very much. Sabalenka is very good to my children, so my relationship with her is normal now."

Since the person involved The knot has been resolved. Now that Sabalenka has returned to the competition, it is not advisable to speculate on herself, let alone add salt to other people's wounds. It is better to have some moral integrity. (Source: Tennis Home Author: Yunjuan Yunshu)
