Did something bad happen to a child during the Olympics opening ceremony? Or is this more projection to avoid talking about Trump ogling naked teenagers backstage at his pageants? |
This kind of whining is not Christian. Politely, you should get some help. - a Christian |
The right wing are reactionary. Always have been. Unfortunately, the rise of Christian nationalism is inevitable in my opinion and it’s all due to things like This Olympics scandal. It’s sadly the perfect bait for Christians to say their identity, and faith/beliefs are “under attack” and they will respond by persecuting the community they see responsible for it. Before it, it was the Muslims and sharia law they saw as enemy number 1. Now, they’ve decreased down the list I suppose and the LGBTQ community (mainly due to the T’s fault, a group even LGB’s resent and roll their eyes at) will potentially push all the gains that LGB’s fought so hard for to the wayside |
It’s typical of conservatives to get all verklempt over one racy scene out of 4 hour ceremony but say not a single word about the violent bloody scene of a guillotined queen. Weird. Your priorities are weird. |
Religious wackos. Republican bigots. |
The headless people were described as satanic as well. It just got lost in the shuffle. |
Nothing bad happened but “they want the children” is a huge baiting call that religious right have always used. Lately, a big meme on Facebook I saw in June with right wingers was the pride month combined as pridemonth with the meme saying you can’t spell demon without it. If the LGBT community wanted to come out with the absolute worst optics and right wing activating, stereotype-laden scene they could design, The Olympics was exactly that. Whether it was intentional or not, it was a risky move especially for what it bodes for us as a nation in an election year. If the right wing pendulum swings in government, we can blame things like this from overzealous stage designers. Mocking Jesus and a New Gay Testament Is only funny to some progressives but they aren’t the majority Of the US |
You go, girl bigot. Be proud and loud. |
Once again, this is an international event that is not centered around America. You and the rest of the people feigning outrage about this are insignificant and represent a sliver of a population and audience watching. If you want to talk about badly reading a room, conversatives and MAGA consistently fail because they can't see anything that goes beyond their limited view of the world. |
There were people upset about that too as children were watching and a bloody decapitated head makes no sense. France is the country where you can watch topless people kissing and practically watch soft porn on cable television during prime time daytime TV so obviously this cultural gap is also something people have to keep in mind |
So, your theory is that the FRENCH Olympic Opening Ceremonies were secretly designed by queers from the United States? |
And specifically just to trigger RWNJs. Such victims!

I think you’re the ones that’s Clueless and a navel gazing liberal. It has everything to do with election season. Most of the right wing Christians famously don’t even vote. Trump was just talking to them last week during his infamous “you won’t have to vote anymore, we’ll fix everything, the other side hates you” speech. If one wanted the best catnip they could find to motivate the religious right, a worldwide patriotic and family friendly event like the Olympics mocking Christianity and Jesus in front of the world was exactly it |

It doesn’t matter where they’re from. The point is Jesus was mocked and Christians will blame the far left’s agenda and LGBTQ in general for this |
