Olympic Games Organizers Send Loud & Clear Message To Anyone Who Was Offended By Their Opening Ceremony

The 2024 Olympic Games got off to a controversial start on Friday night, with the opening ceremony angering many people, especially those of the Christian faith.

At one point, a segment featuring drag queens seemed to parody “The Last Supper.”

A spokesperson for the organizers has responded to the backlash with claims that this was an attempt at showing tolerance, which they reckon was achieved.

“Clearly there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. (The opening ceremony) tried to celebrate community tolerance,” Anne Descamps told reporters, via Reuters.

“We believe this ambition was achieved. If people have taken any offense, we are really sorry.”

 

James Leperlier, a French LGBTQ leader, has also claimed that the ceremony did not go far enough.
