The WORST opening ceremony EVER! It sucked and was over flowing with the politically correct hyperbolic socialist agenda.

I couldn’t take it anymore, after seeing the Broadway style “volunteers” acting out how the elites watched and ruled over all the oppressed people doing all the work and then with all the nationalized healthcare BS....

I wanted to barf...but instead just changed the channel. Typical British BS. Just proving WHY we left that country to begin with.

The UK owes me a headache pill and a sleeping pill.

I read somewhere a few months ago that these were going to be the “diversity” games (you know, the way every Olympics chooses a “theme”), so I already knew not to bother watching.

There have been some posts here at FR joking about how they could just give everybody a medal, in keeping with leftist ideas of “social justice”. Well, it seems that it’s almost not a joke. Some guy who has only been rowing for about 3 months (a “person of color” from a land-locked nation, of course) was allowed to have a place in one of the rowing events. He placed last, of course. I don’t know if they’re correct, but people were pizzed that he apparently was given a place over competitors who would have been realistic contenders, though low ranked. I wouldn’t be surprised if it were true just as related.
