As if the Olympic opening ceremony wasn't embarrassing enough....the flag was upside down!
Just when you thought that it was the dumbest, most insulting ceremony ever….
Olympic Flag Accidentally Flown Upside Down at Opening Ceremony

Not sure how one notices a circle being upside down. Good eyes, I guess. I recall the Canadian flag was upside down - was it in a World Series?
Shameful, and an insult to all Christians.
Those Aussies and Kiwis cannot be trusted in the northern hemisphere! 😁
The flag was right side up this time as USA soccer hammers the Kiwi's 4-1 and could have had more. A good 100% effort played hard to the end. 😎
Why was it so insulting? I have the opening ceremony recorded but haven’t had time to watch it. What is so insulting or wrong? Just curious, I can’t watch the thing in its entirety, but I’d like to see what you’re talking about.
Edit: I still haven’t seen it, but I assume you’re referring to the last supper scene.
Well, if you enjoy drag shows, then this is for you. Thought it was inappropriate for prime-time TV. In general, it was total nonsense. Even without the drag-show it was still just a weird French mess. There was one part where three androgenous looking people went into a bedroom and started kissing, then one of them looks at the camera and closes the door. It was just gross. Then there was that drag queen Last Supper image….
Celine Deion was the best part and most normal thing in the whole show.
Knowing a little about Celine's health struggles, it was kind of a chilling (in the old sense of the word) experience. I was awestruck. Never saw the Last Supper thing or the kissing scenes.
Yet you seem to have watched the whole thing. Could you not have just turned it off?
what would he be outraged about then?
Exactly! If they had performed a drag queen interpretation of a Middle East religion there would be an outcry and probably retaliation.
Christianity started in the Middle East 🤔
This is a often overlooked point. Anyways, I just wish politics and sports could be separated. Sports is my escape from the problems of the real world. You take that away and life just sucks.
I was referring to another religion from the Middle East (not Christian or Jewish) but I think you knew that.
ba’hai faith?
I’m done.
