Official video of Paris 2024 opening ceremony 'is deleted from Olympics account' as viewers' backlash grows - and fans flock to praise London 2012 showcase which remains online

The official video of the Paris 2024 opening ceremony appears to have been deleted from the Olympics account as viewers' backlash grows - with fans flocking to praise the London 2012 showcase, which remains online.

Social media users shared a screenshot of the organisation's footage, which showed a blank screen with the caption 'this video is not available'.

Meanwhile, the show also does not appear to be on their YouTube channel - despite there being coverage of the games both before and after the ceremony.

And full-length versions of the ceremonies for London 2012, Rio 2016, Beijing 2022 and even Nagano 1998 are all available.

Neither the Olympics nor the Paris games have given any reason for this apparent omission. Both have been contacted for comment.

It comes after the event was dubbed the 'worst ever' and sparked backlash as it was carried out amid appalling weather.

Among the various artistic tableaus, named after French values such as freedom, fraternity and equality, it was the last supper-style performance in 'festivité' - or party - scene which caused the most controversy.

The word is that the Olympics has sent out a memo to everyone who is replaying that video to stop.

So if you have a copy of it save it, the Olympics is trying to get it deleted from the net.

The message was clear enough by itself: “This is the official position of the French Olympic Committee: we are moral and inclusive and all are welcome. Oh, are you a Christian? Not you.” OK. Not me.

Here are the “highlights”

The woke 2024 Paris Olympics gets off to an interesting start at their opening ceremony which featured drag queens, a “decap*tated” head and a “smurf” with his bulge out

The KY French Fries Players.

Kentucky had nothing to do with it.

Oh, wait a minute -- (/s)

Example number infinity: the left destroys everything it gets its hands on. But then, we were told by our Lord that the devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy, in that order. The Olympics is just the latest. But who cares? I am too busy doing what I can to back the last best hope against leftist destruction in America, our Jehu, Donald Trump.

And we’re supposed to be in awe of their artistic genius?

That was 1:10 of my life I’ll never get back. And pure sexual perversion on display.

Hardly genius of any kind.

They don’t want Christians to watch their Satanic celebration.

Yeah, the Olympics is sending copyright takedown notices to many on X who have posted the video.

The pushback and criticism against the decadent opening ceremony has been swift and harsh. They are now trying to hide it.

That puts those such as Romney and others who praised it in quite a tough spot. They praised a ceremony that was sacrilegious and full of sexual deviancy, and now that the outrage has reached such a level that at least one sponsor has pulled support, where does that leave them?

It’s going to be interesting to see if Romney and others try to backpedal or if they will double-down in their comments that it was great creative and inspiring production.

It is possible that Romney is suffering from Bidenson’s disease. He may be scared to be tested.

The video clips of the Olympics are just about as open and shut case of the fair use doctrine as one can get. The take down notice sent to the “offenders” sounds scary but there is actually nothing they can do.

London was horrific with that Dancing Doctors for NHS thing. It looked straight out of North Korea.

I thought the singing decapitated head of Marie Antoinette was a bit much, too.

That Marie Antoinette holding her severed head and singing was utterly depraved.

Sounds like the Olympic Committee and YouTube are very HOMOPHOBIC.

Why do they fear gay people and why do they treat gay people as second class citizens? This ABJECT HATRED of gays needs to stop - the Olympic Committee and YouTube should be VERY PROUD of the contributions of gays to this event, rather than embarrassed to the point of CENSORING GAYS.

(the above is the proper Republican response - make them into the BIGOTS)

Well, well, well.

The libtard mentality bites them in the ass once again.

Leftists always over-reach. They never learn.
