Did we ruin the Olympics?

>>40455704 (OP)
yes, the rainbow flags are clearly more disruptive than *checks notes* Russian doping scandal

>>40455732
why are they like that

>>40455704 (OP)
White people ruined the olympics
It went from a panhellenic religious festival to a soulless commercial event for petty cold war patriotism

The LG have been watching the BT show their butthole at pride events for a while now, but I will say the Paris Olympics were catastrophic optics for queer people broadly. Like watching a child douse themselves in gasoline then jump in a campfire.

>>40455704 (OP)
mt only issue with the olympics is that we don't have access to footage of dad bod achileans wrestling while smothered in baby oil with hairy chest

>>40456415
>I-it's the yt people! They bad!
Did you watch the last Olympics? Have the opening was homoerotic and off-putting

I mean I'm with it on the homoerotic part just get some actual fucking talent instead of whatever that was

>>40455732
Can you imagine a world where being queer positive doesn't involve putting fat, nearly nude middle aged men on parade floats?

>>40455704 (OP)
"We" did not. The French ruined it by implementing queer representation in a clumsy and stupid way.

>>40455704 (OP)
Not to educated westerners, but many of my family in Indonesia were horrified

>>40456535
that's because homophobia is culturally backwards and regressive

>>40456571
I get that, but it didn't seem like the opening to the Olympics did much more than confirm the bigotry in their heads

>>40456571
Nta but if you're trying to spread a positive message it should matter if it's done well, in the case of the Olympics I'd say it was done shockingly poorly

>>40456571
>>40456642
That's the issue with pretty much all the progressive "media representation" and "activism" and "visibility": it genuinely just makes people hate LGBTQTACDHJCBDC'st've++ even more.

I miss the days of "don't ask, don't tell"

>>40456440
*everyone was watching LGBT
you coping about some faggots being "fake lesbians/gays" doesn't change the fact that they're lesbians/gays

>>40456481
>fat, nearly nude old hairy men
mmfgh....

Western culture had a 12 year period where all social standing came from a willingness to publicly voice support for progressively more fringe and niche “social minorities”. It was an arms race, where anyone who could find and identify an even more absurd and grotesque clique and shout “i not only accept these freaks, i see them as completely normal” won. I cant recall a more annoying social phenomenon in history.

>>40455704 (OP)
we need to go to good ol times of old hairy muscular bears wrestling naked for everyone to see

>you vill mock your cultural monuments and vorship ze dickz in ze buttz and you vill be happy

>>40455704 (OP)
Yes.

>>40456931
we need fat hairy greek men instead i want to see fat naked men on my tv

>>40456991
Yes it would be better

>>40456931
The fuck is that?

>>40457632
A societal abscess

>>40456776
Same story with all the LGBT stuff the State Department backs in other countries. All it does is make people in those countries start seeing homos and trannies as a fifth column.

>>40456931
Is that Gorlock the Destroyer in the middle there?

>>40456497
This. It was peak gay representation that is made by nothing but cishets that might have done a couple consultations with some yes man coffee shop gays who will agree to whatever over the top representation of queerness said cishet people think is right from watching 90's sitcoms and thinking its actually how gays/trannies act.

>>40455704 (OP)
>implying gayness isn't a part of ancient greek culture

we should be in the para Olympics because we're mentally disabled

>>40456415
what kind of 18th century horseshit are you believing in where greeks aren’t white?

>>40457791
Didn't you hear? The Spanish and the Italians aren't White either

>>40457732
they should've gone with bearded hairy musclebears in fig leaf loincloths and olive wreath crowns flexing on the table

>>40456481
Kweers were a mistake, and will be what kills LGBT people.

>>40457632
Olympic opening ceremony
Because the idea that the world didn’t resolve around trannies and drag queens once every 4 years was “genocide” and they had to make it about them, only to cry later that politicians were heckin obsessed with them when demanding this insanity stop

>>40457973
The only white people ever legally doubted as white were finns, and even this was never legally enshrined. A mine owner tried to challenge their path to citizenship after a strike, but the judge ruled if they were ever mongolians their residence in finland had made them white.
Italians and spanish were always legally white. Mexicans were not.

The reason the Olympics were made to be so over the top and so flagrantly pro-LGBT is due to vanguardism, they want to be the ones to push the boundaries of sexual permittivity by being out in front of everyone else in terms of sexual permissivity.

That might work in western countries but the reaction outside of them was revulsion and horror. I suspect it was a net negative for lgbt people broadly from the backlash to it.
