But we are NOT cynical of white Norwegian superheroes like Jakob who came oh so close to matching Lagat's and El G's unprecedented 1500- 5K doubles at a global championship, and who ran a 5K faster than both of them without even focusing on the event! AND ... who has a faster Olympic 1500 m time then either of them that is nearly as fast as El G's World Championship record. All at a very young age!
He beats all the present "African dopers" [ which is pretty much all African Runners according to you] and virtually all of the past African dopers but.... he is clean!! It's a miracle!
Oh my bad it's just hard training and the magic secret of " double threshold". ✨️. Lol.
[ and let's not forget his countrymen Warholm defeating all the black American sprinting dopers too. Does he train double threshold also? 😆]
In ways it was the worst possible thing was for some of these white Runners to come along and beat all the africans/black runners cuz now you have to make a choice of believing these white runners are clean OR taking back your accusations that nearly all past and present super African Runners were doped. But I know you choose option C: you want your cake and to eat it too and therefore you say nearly all the Africans/black runners are doped but the white Norwegians beat them anyway even while clean!
And of course a clean Sebastian Coe is still faster than almost every single African 800m whoever lived, who according to you were probably all doped. Amazing]
If Africans were still able to full throttle EPO dope, then Jakob nor anybody else would get close. El G and Lagat would be running 3:23 today.
Why are white Europeans winning these days? It has nothing to do with improved testing?
Your argument leads to the conclusion that Rudisha and Kipketer were both doped, otherwise how could they be faster than the best doped up non-African (Coe, according to you)?
The Nigerian national record is 3:45 or something. If it was found the Nigerian who set it was doped, does it follow that everybody faster than 3:45 is doped?
Your argument only makes sense if you assume that British athletes could not produce faster 800m runners than Kenyans, all things being equal. How do you know this? Why are Kenyans so much faster than Nigerians over middle and long distance? Doping?

There is no comparison between what El G, Lagat and Ngeny were doing 25 years ago and what Jakob is doing now, so your whole argument falls apart.
Lagat et all were running 3:26 low/3:43 low on EPO with 'old' spikes and 'old' tracks.
Jakob is running 3:28 low/ 3:46 low in super spikes (which are what, 2-4% better energy return) on the latest Mondo tracks (Tokyo was hailed by Mondo engineer as the fastest ever track) and with light pacing! So he has better pacing, faster tracks and better shoes, yet still can't get within 2 secs of what the other 3 were running in the late 90's!
So No, there is no hypocrisy or double standards in questioning what Lagat, EL G, Ngeny, Komen, etc were doing then, while being far less skeptical about the authenticity of what Ingebrigtsen (a child prodigy from a young age) is running at the moment. Not to mention the dozens upon dozens of elite Kenyan athletes (of whom Canova assured us never even had the disposition or entertained the idea) who have been caught as dopers in the years since they have forced to undego as much out of season testing as the rest of the world's elite athletes have done for decades. I can't recall a long list of Norwegian dopers at this point.
