Dionysus wants you to know…
I’m out of the loop. What’s going on?
-
Drag queens reenacted a painting of a Greek scene at the Olympic opening ceremonies.
-
Christians naturally thought it was about them and started crying persecution, other bigots took advantage of the fray to attack the LGBT community.
-
The world rejoices at another opportunity to mock the latter into oblivion.
TLDR; The usual
There’s serious “this photo of a buff woman completely derailed a podcast about the state of the white man for three episodes” energy around this image
the problem we (although i can only speak for myself) have is that this is not appropriate for kids. i don’t have any problem with what people do in private, but this being broadcast to the whole world with no age restriction is the problem.
I assume you feel the same way about straight couples holding hands at the park because that being broadcast to the whole world with no age restriction is the problem.
i don’t have any problems with anyone holding hands at the park, my problem is that the guy in the back has his balls hanging out.
That’s a hole in his costume, not his balls hanging out. The closeup shot shows the hole. Watch the video and you’ll see it. No one was showing off their junk.
What exactly is a child seeing that is inappropriate? It’s a bunch of people dressed funny. They aren’t blowing each other on the runway.
there’s literally a guy with his balls out in the posted picture.
Hope you don’t watch any swimming events then. All those guys are wearing speedos.
There literally isn’t though
Boy are you new to the world of art. And greek gods.
i don’t know man, seems like quite the sisyphusean task to try to keep kids from seeing testicles on tv 🤷

You’re so vain you probly think this meme is about you
This was a horrible waste of money and time, and only really produced something that I can only describe as disgusting. Someone who recognises that doesn’t automatically become a bigot.
While I may agree with the waste of time and money, I see the whole thing of Olympics a waste of time and money but if people want to have some fun who am I to stop them. People find your use of the word disgusting well disgusting and that you recognize it as so even more intolerant. Maybe even bigoted? Also the whole thing from what I see falls under ART. While you may find it disgusting others my find it lovely, fun, and entertaining, I did. While you can have your opinions I hope you don’t stop people from having fun when you disagree with them. Have a wonderful day!
Well your problem here is you’re conflating opinion with fact.
You didn’t “recognise” shit.
I apologise if my opinion here (this ceremony being ‘disgusting’) came across as me finding it to be fact, because I didn’t. My opinion here is one I consider sensible, and as such would find anyone disagreeing insane.
Perhaps you took this:
This was a horrible waste of money and time
Out of the context of being an opinion formed by me?
Legitimately curious here, what did you find disgusting? The message of the song, the callback to classical art and religion, performers in costume, or something else?
Mostly the costumes.
Ok, and to clarify, do you mean disgusting as in the opposite of attractive, or that you feel an internal wrongness when looking? I’m guessing it’s something way beyond either, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense to find others “insane” for liking the performance.
You decided something informed by the insecurities and beliefs you were raised with. You’re a slave to the world around you and you think you had an original thought. Pathetic.
I mean seriously! I can’t really understand why people must have such polarized and toxic reaction over some art performance. I get that this may not be for everyone, but just like the movies series before had mixed reaction, this live action Smurf Musical will find his fan base in time…
btw. what aboth dionysus?
Dionysius is the smurf in the picture
Was Papa Smurf names’s Dionysus? I didn’t remembered that.
The Greek? I think. God.
Fun fact: Dionysus, Greek god of wine and festivity, and Zagreus, Greek god of blood and rebirth, are the same being!
Blood for the blood god?
Either get with it, or get out of the fucking way
Watch your mouth, buddy.
Have you not been fucking listening?
Who’s that fatty behind the Smurf? She looks like she could use a man snack
Not how I would try to pick up a date, but shoot your shot I guess.
Me neither, trying to hit and quit
Here you go.
