Does it matter?

A drag show at the Olympics. lol

As to the article, in advertising as well as show business, you are responsible for all reasonable messages conveyed by chosen content.

You think Muslims or Jews would give a shit if an anti-them message obviously brought to mind was allegedly unintended?

Come on, man!

I thought Gojira kicked ass. I don't know what the rest of that shit was. To be fair, I didn't watch it. I'm sure it was a meaningful and important message to someone....

Yeah, I watched the Gojira performance a couple times. Beyond that, I've only seen still images of Ru Paul's Drag Supper and a random tweet pointing out that Olympic gold medals aren't even made out of gold anymore. I've never been so disappointed by something I've never cared about.

As much as I'm a fairly smart person. And really haven't watched due to all the hype.

I'm fully aware that I may or may not "get" a certain piece of art. Or some kind of theatrical expression. Maybe that's just me.

But I think there is some kind of saying that essentially says that .

:shrug:

it would appear many conservatives are outraged at what they thought was the last supper but was actually Greek Mythology.
I didn’t look into it too deep.

Oh really? Is that why they apologized for mocking the last supper?

They apologized for anyone that was offended, because people were as you know. They did not apologize because it was the last supper. The person that created it said it wasn't the last supper but you can believe who you want to. Were you offended?
 
Thomas Jolly, the opening ceremony director, insisted in an interview with France's BFMTV that "The Last Supper" was not the inspiration behind the scene, explaining that "Dionysus arrives at the table because he is the Greek God of celebration," adding that the particular sequence was entitled "festivity."

"The idea was to create a big pagan party in link with the God of Mount Olympus — and you will never find in me, or in my work, any desire of mocking anyone," Jolly said.

Just proof that politics is about power. Those in charge want their messages conveyed; they don’t give a shit if it is offensive . . . unless there is repercussions for being offensive.
