Musk and Butker Join MAGA for Olympics Drag Queen Freak Out

Elon Musk and several right-wing pundits were quick to vent their fury at the Paris Olympic Games opening ceremony.

The ceremony featured a number of drag-style performances, but the final tableau, of a drag-themed runway performance that bore a striking resemblance to Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, really gave MAGA world a conniption. The painting portrays Christ and his apostles as Jesus reveals one of them will betray him.

The number of transgender and drag queens in the performance offended many online, with Musk posting on X that the performance “was extremely disrespectful to Christians.” Musk is a self-described “cultural Christian”, and a “free speech absolutist.”

In another post replying to a side-by-side image of the performance and the da Vinci, Musk added, “Christianity has become toothless.”

Kansas City Chiefs’ kicker Harrison Butker, who is a vocal conservative Christian activist, also posted a video from the ceremony with a passage from Galatians that warns against making mockeries of God. The three-time Super Bowl champion was criticized in May for a commencement address at Benedictine College, a conservative liberal arts school in Kansas, where he blasted gay rights and told female graduates they were headed for the kitchen.
