Wow, that’s… something. I read a bunch of articles about it, but it seems strange that nobody answers some really basic questions: Even if the scene was modeled on The Last Supper, so what? How is that mocking Christians? (I’ve seen more parodies of that painting than I can count.) The artistic director apparently denies it, so what motives are people alleging are his secret motives?
And, then, even if it was mockery, why does he (and presumably the performers) deserve death?
Oh, shit! I didn’t hear about this. How many people died?
Nobody, and that’s kind of the point. Imagine the games were hold in the UAE, I’m 100% sure a ton people would’ve died after that performance.
What performance? (I’m out of the loop.)
ETA: I tried a search. Is this about the boxer? The rapist volleyball player? The Taiwanese fan?
I posted the photo, but yeah you can read more about here and maybe view it on YouTube.
Catholics accuse trans people of being rude to them. What an impactful article, trans people really are doing catholics dirty.
Can you remind me how catholics treat LGBTQ people?
Yeah sure, let’s try to get this minority to do a live performance on a major event on some Islamic country and then we can discuss treatment.
