I’m not disputing that. But is that not populism in its purest form? A kunt hair short of anarchy?

Is there significance to that?
Genuinely curious.
I’m no more interested in his religious beliefs than I am who he has sex with.

I'm not miserable but I do live on a ranch in the middle of nowhere. It's blissful.

Tell the truth, did you even watch it or just took what you saw on conservative social media and ran with it? The production value of this opening was incredible. The ending with the light show using the Eiffel Tower alone was just insane.
Imagine just being this absolutely clueless lol

Yes
And I'm certainly not the only one to make this observation, but these displays almost always come from Jewish people. Think of Larry David pissing on a crucifix on his television show. It's reflects an underlying cultural attitude towards Christians and Christianity, and probably goes back to the time of Christ. Because of the historical imbalance power, it usually manifested as mockery, like this.

The upper middle class seizing power from the aristocracy, and then murdering them?

especially the Beatles song on the boat with fire. Hearing that song with that lady's voice and seeing the athletes sing along gave me chills.
Singing
“Imagine there’s no countries…”
To people from around the globe proud to about to compete on behalf of… their beloved countries.
Made me chuckle.
Stupid commies.

I saw some of it, without knowing it had become an outrage-mill thing. It was fricking bizarre. It was also not much about the actual athletes and mostly about weird perversions or inversions of French culture. I'd previously thought all the "France has fallen" stuff to be sort of overblown, but whatever the hell that was suggests that France as a concept is falling apart.

Why are you all letting some third rate sports bother you? No one cares about these sports until they roll around every few years. Olympics is nothing more than feel good BS. I had no idea what was going on because I don't watch them.

Know who do watch the Olympics?
Children.
Many of them.

I always liked to watch the Olympics because I like sports and competition. I like being exposed to some of these off the wall sports that really do not get a lot of coverage here. I really got into the swimming more the past few Olympics just because of Michael Phelps. I do not wanna watch a political show though. Keep it to the sports and competition and I will watch. If they start shoving politics down my throat and I will tune out really fast.

Why are they pushing lgbtq for the Olympics? This is mental illness.
