"You don’t know about art or history": Jodie Sweetin on Olympics remarks like Candace Cameron Bure's
The Tanner sisters from "Full House" are bickering, and this time it's not about cereal or the TV remote.
Jodie Sweetin has responded after her TV sister and co-star Candace Cameron Bure said that a particular part of the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony served to "blaspheme and mock the Christian faith."
Conservatives like Bure, Rob Schneider, Elon Musk and House Speaker Mike Johnson all took issue with a tableau that featured drag performers, dancers and actors lined up against a long table. Later, French actor and singer Philippe Katerine descended onto the table from a giant silver food platter as the Greek god Dionysus. Right-wing critics said the performance mocked Leonardo da Vinci's most popular work, "The Last Supper."
In two Instagram stories, Sweetin seemingly made a dig at Bure. In one post, Sweetin wrote, "Tell me you don’t know about art or history without TELLING me you don’t know about art or history" with a video attached mocking people who misinterpreted the opening ceremony.
Also, to clear up the confusion with the performance, Sweetin explained in her Instagram story the history of the feast of Dionysus.

Whatever you think of the opening ceremonies, can we ALL just admit that we had no fucking idea that there was some fucking painting about some fucking Feast of the Gods that we all just knew about before last week. Okay, some DLers probably are real art historians, but in general, I do not believe that Jodie Sweetin or any of the people pretending that, doy, it's not about the Last Supper, had any fucking clue about any of it more than a week ago. Sorry, cunts, don't believe you.

no, but tell me honestly r13. If somebody had mentioned Dionysus or some Feast of Dionysus to you 2 weeks ago, would you have any clue what they were talking about?
Be honest.

It’s not that Christian snowflakes are so easily triggered these days, but that they’ve been on a good run lately proclaiming and protesting that they are being persecuted. They see slights, disrespect and blasphemy everywhere as a means to “own the libs.” They look quite ridiculous.

R15 Maybe Jodie read The Secret History by Donna Tartt.

The thing that's really funny about the brouhaha is that so much of Christianity is based on pagan beliefs. So that Christians whining about this are drawing attention to this fact is priceless.

The Last Supper is a 15th century PAINTING. It was made by man, not God himself, so why all the brouhaha?

I didn’t get how this was religious. I didn’t know about the painting it was referencing I just thought it was a freak party. Olympics always do crazy shit

Yes I would, at least about Dionysus. In fact I’m a little shocked that you had not. I thought everyone knew about him. And if not him directly then at least about his Roman equivalent Bacchus. That’s where we get the word bacchanalia. Dionysus/Bacchus is the god of wine and revelry. Every gay should know this.

Isn't mythology required reading in Junior High?

Does anyone have a clip of the segment from the opening ceremony? I think it's been scrubbed.
