(3,833 posts)also made sham trials to accuse people of wrongdoing which they obviously did not do, to prosecute them in many different forms, the guillotine was the preferred choice at the time in France. To understand the "French Revolution" one must read extensively what that revolution was about, but that is not the case.
The Olympic show had very little to do with the games, the choreographer obviously wanted to make a point about LGBTQ which does not have a place in the Olympics. I am all for freedom of speech, for art, and for people being happy doing the things that make them happy, but respecting others is part of allowing people to be happy.
The skit where this young people meet at the library and then decide to have a threesome is nothing about love, they just met, all they wanted to do was to have sex. How does that equate with the Olympics?
I am sure many here, and I know it because I have read some of the posts, will disagree with me, which is fine, but the themes that were chosen for the opening were wrong, lacked decency and many had nothing to do with athletics. The Olympics is about celebrating Athleticism, not sex.
If Christians (I am not one by the way) were offended, or if anyone was offended (plenty did) then you have not done your job, even if the reference was about something else which by the way, the original painting does not have transsexual people in it.
