You don't need to be religious to find religious hate offensive, just as you don't need to be Jewish to denounce anti Semitism.

I also dont need to be an art critic to find it patently ridiculous.

Well the Archbishop has weighed in on the Olympics.  Personally I used to like watching them, especially the track and field events.

Olympics ‘Last Supper’ Star Threatens to Sue Her Right-Wing Haters

The drag artist at the center of a Paris Olympics opening ceremony performance that drew right-wing outrage for apparently mocking Christ’s Last Supper is firing back.

Barbara Butch said through her attorney that she had been targeted with death threats, antisemitism and fat phobia and said she was planning to sue the people who had targeted her.

This is really ironic:

Butch added on her Instagram: “All my life, I have refused to be a victim: I will not remain silent. I am not afraid of those who hide behind a screen, or a pseudonym, to vomit their hatred and their frustrations.”

They had a ironman style competition where I am from over 20 years ago. It took place in part in the dirty polluted man made lake the city dug for the power plant. 98 people ended up ill with leptospirosis.

I rememeber the Gathering of the Juggalos was in Hole in the Rock.  Concertgoers would swim in a pond they called "Lake Hepatitis."

The competition from Paris’ Olympic Games continues to be the side dish to the entree of larger wellness issues.

Following reports that this summer’s Olympic Village has had insufficient amounts of grilled meat and eggs, competitors themselves have doubled down on qualms with catering — specifically the emphasis on vegan-conscious choices.

Ariarne Titmus, who won gold in the women’s 400-meter freestyle on Saturday, seemingly attributed posting a slower time than she anticipated in part due to the less authentic cuisine.

“The lack of world records boils down to this whole eco-friendly, carbon footprint, vegan-first mentality rather than high performance,” said James Magnussen, who last won a swimming bronze medal for Australia in 2016.

 

There's also an odd story bandied about concerning athletes from poorer countries having to rent air conditioners.

Wudda you know, bad food at the Paris Olympics? A thousand French chefs plan to end it all by jumping in the Seine (which with the active lifeforms present, should surely take mere seconds).

 

[Mr King]

They really want us to eat the bugs and the lab grown smeat.

Muscles need testosterone. To make it, you need cholesterol. Ya ain't getting that from kale and soy.

Don't the French normally scoff at American diet foods like half and half cream and such?  What a tweest. Let's go smuggle in some bacon and eggs.

[NickM]

No this time around,  I'm too bored to care.

Why, even this year's shark week was chock full of utterly uninteresting content

[rmgill]

Why do you expect anything new out of Warner Brothers Discovery? Seriously? They've managed to make even the DC universe boring and milquetoast.

Given the ever-increasing idiocy of the Olympic Committee, I'm not going to blame this on the general-issue French, per se. The OC surely chose to inflict a woke diet on the athletes, and found some local vendors happy to charge $30/kg for tofu that was never going to sell to real Frenchies.

I'm expecting the 2028 Summer Olympics to feature a ban on Israel's team, and by 2032 a ban on Jews in general. Female athletes will need to prove their Gentility via an intact foreskin.

We are not in the 1930s anymore.

I'm surprised  nobody has mentioned this yet.

It is just another example which will add to the death of woke. You know woke is dead, when left leaning intellectuals publish books about the end of the woke movement. They just did.

History doesn't repeat. But it certainly rhymes. We're about to that part in the song for the "kill the jews" stanza.

None of the offended by that horrible inauguration ceremony are calling for the extermination of the Jewish people.

I've been trying to find a video of that match, but I guess the lawyers are only allowing still shots.
