The 2024 Olympics opening ceremony in Paris has sparked international outrage with drag-queen themed imagery of religious and historical figures.
In between listing all the countries participating in the Olympic Games, there have been several performances riffing on France's history and culture, such as a headless Marie Antoinette, the last queen prior to being executed amid French Revolution, singing with her severed head in her hands sporting drag-style makeup. This was part of numerous drag queens that appeared to be a recurring theme throughout the ceremonies. Three drag queens were among the 10,000 torchbearers who relayed the Olympic flame as it started in Greece, passed through French territories and made its way to Paris.
One new display on Friday showed what appear to be numerous performers, including drag queens and a large woman in an aureole halo crown, parodying "The Last Supper," a universally recognizable painting by renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci of Christ and his apostles.
Many internationally known political figures, particularly from American politics, condemned the display as a sign of the cultural rot in Western Civilization.

Hard pass.
The drag-style makeup was common among French aristocratic women of the era. Watch the John Adams miniseries to see for yourself.

Weird how like Trump is welcoming with open arms the Prime Minister of Israel and thousands of miles away Paris is celebrating the filthy disgusting drag queen in their opening Olympics ceremony. Is God trying to tell us something?
muslims claim Jesus was prophet just like Mohammad, and yet they never defend him they way they do Mahammad.

Now imagine if they mocked ISlime and their false moon deity the same way. We’d never hear the end of it.

Anyone who has seen da Vinci’s painting would automatically see what was done here.
From the article - “One new display on Friday showed what appear to be numerous performers, including drag queens and a large woman in an aureole halo crown, parodying “The Last Supper,” a universally recognizable painting by renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci of Christ and his apostles. ”
