Olympics opening ceremony sparks outrage with drag queens parodying Last Supper: 'Gone completely woke'
Fox News' Greg Palkot provides details on the attacks which have been described as 'coordinated, malicious attacks' with the goal of 'destabilizing' the Olympic games.
The 2024 Olympics opening ceremony in Paris has sparked international outrage with drag-queen themed imagery of religious and historical figures.
In between listing all the countries participating in the Olympic Games, there have been several performances riffing on France's history and culture, such as a headless Marie Antoinette, the last queen prior to being executed amid French Revolution, singing with her severed head in her hands sporting drag-style makeup. This was part of numerous drag queens that appeared to be a recurring theme throughout the ceremonies. Three drag queens were among the 10,000 torchbearers who relayed the Olympic flame as it started in Greece, passed through French territories and made its way to Paris.
One new display on Friday showed what appear to be numerous performers, including drag queens and a large woman in an aureole halo crown, parodying "The Last Supper," a universally recognizable painting by renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci of Christ and his apostles.

Many internationally known political figures, particularly from American politics, condemned the display as a sign of the cultural rot in Western Civilization.
