However, within the movie itself, it is strongly implied that Travolta and his partner are actually the LEAST impressive dancers in the competition, and the only reason they win over their black and Puerto Rican opponents is because the judges are racist.

This fandom sees the Wolverines as Iraqis, Afghans, Vietnamese, Palestinians, or guerilla fighters from any other nation occupied by America or an ally of America. The Russians in the film are seen as Americans.
