There were Satanic images at the Olympics opening ceremony in Paris? - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 12:57 PM
- I didn't see this but I saw it online...apparently a dozen drag queens - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 2:24 PM
  - Here is what I found online. It was NOT the Last Supper...see inside - ladyday - 27-Jul-2024 9:13 PM
    - Knowing the resemblance was unintentional only makes me feel - Wahoo - 28-Jul-2024 11:13 AM
      - I honestly don't get how people got The Last Supper out of 17 drag queens and - Dreamylyfe - 28-Jul-2024 6:43 PM

        I’m so offended by NBC’s kneejerk decision to censor the drag queen segment - Kitchop - 29-Jul-2024 6:02 PM
        
        UGH I agree 100%. I hate censorship. EOM - ladyday - 29-Jul-2024 8:35 PM
        
        A few links.... - StarryDreamer - 29-Jul-2024 4:32 PM
        
        I was mistaken about the halo--I'd seen other images online that - Wahoo - 29-Jul-2024 6:52 PM
        
        We all experience art through our own lenses but our individual interpretations - Kitchop - 29-Jul-2024 8:04 PM
        
        This is key -- and I'll add - Dreamylyfe - 30-Jul-2024 6:02 AM
        
        Yes. So many people having a strong opinion about something before even seeing - Kitchop - 30-Jul-2024 6:17 AM
        
        It reminds me a bit of the protests against The Last Temptation of Christ... - Dreamylyfe - 30-Jul-2024 6:57 AM
        
        It reminds me of the time Rudy Giuliani tried to close the Brooklyn Museum - Kitchop - 30-Jul-2024 9:59 AM

        Well said. - Dreamylyfe - 30-Jul-2024 6:04 AM
        
        Thank you for this! EOM - Kitchop - 29-Jul-2024 5:47 PM
        
        Yes, I am actually familiar with one of the most famous paintings in the world - Dreamylyfe - 29-Jul-2024 3:32 PM
        
        It was supposed to be a nod to Greece, where the Olympics started and - Kitchop - 28-Jul-2024 11:00 PM
        
        Yep - I'm a huge appreciator of Greek mythology going back to childhood. - Dreamylyfe - 29-Jul-2024 5:54 AM
        
        Here's a link to the painting that the segment was based on, Le Festin des Dieux - Kris - 30-Jul-2024 3:49 PM
  - Are Christians aware that DaVinci was probably a big ole queer? - K_StillNotOver2016 - 27-Jul-2024 4:51 PM
    - Does it matter? Christians revere Jesus, no DaVinci... - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 5:04 PM
      - Does every non-Christian depiction of the last summer cause this much offense? - K_StillNotOver2016 - 27-Jul-2024 5:39 PM
        
        Obviously I can't speak for every Christian... - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 6:01 PM
      - There has been a denial. The organizers said it was supposed to be Dionysus. - Kris - 27-Jul-2024 5:15 PM
  - Wasn’t the drag Last Supper part of a fashion show? Fashion and Paris - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 3:01 PM
    - As I said, I missed that specific part. My attention was divided between - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 3:23 PM
      - Maybe it was a statement about some Christians’ exclusion of drag - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 3:43 PM
        
        Maybe. But if that was the point they were trying to make, they - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 4:21 PM
      - I didn't see the ceremony but I did hear about this. Apparently - CanaryFan98 - 27-Jul-2024 3:31 PM
        
        Twitter should never be believed. And who restricted it? - K_StillNotOver2016 - 27-Jul-2024 4:26 PM
        
        I take most things with a grain of salt but I saw this - CanaryFan98 - 27-Jul-2024 6:37 PM
        I think it likely is Musk who restricted clips of it on X/Twitter. I’ve seen - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 4:53 PM
        
        An excellent question! EOM - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 4:16 PM
- I guess the Marie Antoinette stuff? 🤷🏻‍♀️ AKA their history? I mean, it was - Cassie - 27-Jul-2024 1:43 PM
  - Yes. Essentially people didn't get the references. EOM - Dreamylyfe - 28-Jul-2024 6:10 PM
    - What? Are you saying that people didn’t get the Marie Antoinette references? - Kitchop - 28-Jul-2024 10:39 PM
      - I'm saying that yes, the people using that image to say it's "satanic" - Dreamylyfe - 29-Jul-2024 6:23 AM
  - Those crazy, Satanic French 😂 EOM - Andrea - 28-Jul-2024 11:10 AM
  - The show’s director said he was doing a lighthearted deconstruction of French - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 11:05 PM
  - 🤷🏻‍♀️ AKA their history? - ladyday - 27-Jul-2024 9:00 PM
- There were absolutely none. The opening ceremony was literally the best I've - Kris - 27-Jul-2024 1:17 PM
  - It sounds great. Who doesn’t love Paris? I hope NBC makes the opening - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 2:08 PM
    - It should be on there. Or on Peacock. - Kris - 27-Jul-2024 2:35 PM
      - UPDATE: NBC via Spectrum cable has the entire opening ceremony OnDemand. - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 7:02 PM
        
        It definitely made me want to go back to Paris too! - Kris - 27-Jul-2024 8:25 PM
        
        London, Paris, NYC. You know how to pick your cities. It’s been a while - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 11:18 PM
        
        I am definitely a city girl at heart! - Kris - 28-Jul-2024 1:22 PM
        
        Thanks for the update! I might go back and watch a few parts I missed - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 7:39 PM
        
        You should definitely watch the part you are so upset about. I’m going to watch - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 11:42 PM
      - Thanks. I didn’t know that there are free Peacock accounts. EOM - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 3:58 PM
        
        There are in certain Xfinity subscriptions. This is the only reason I have - CanaryFan98 - 27-Jul-2024 4:25 PM
        
        I just checked and Peacock stopped offering free subscriptions in 2023 - Kitchop - 27-Jul-2024 5:04 PM
        
        Aw, that sucks. I guess I must be grandfathered in. - Kris - 27-Jul-2024 5:11 PM
        
        Peacock has TV shows I didn't get to watch the first time but can now from - CanaryFan98 - 28-Jul-2024 8:12 AM
        
        When you do get around to watching Psych, let us know what you think! - Wahoo - 28-Jul-2024 11:06 AM
        
        Aw, I didn't know that. I'd heard there was a Peacock service that was - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 5:07 PM
      - Highlights would be good. As much as I loved the ceremony, it was - Wahoo - 27-Jul-2024 2:54 PM
        
        I was very glad I had to go to work and recorded it - I was able to ff through - Kris - 30-Jul-2024 3:58 PM
        
        That horse part was when my daughter messaged me, "Good Lord is this thing going - ladyday - 30-Jul-2024 8:31 PM
        
        So I watched the rest last night, and yes it was 15 minutes. - Kris - 31-Jul-2024 9:11 AM
        
        Lordy it was Loooong! EOM - ladyday - 27-Jul-2024 9:03 PM
  - Best part was Celine but I also LOVED the tribute to the craftspersons - Cassie - 27-Jul-2024 1:45 PM
