I don’t know, I watched the Paris opening ceremony last night, and I doubt I’ll ever see another as bad as that with what remains of my life

I’ll take “weird and tacky” over “Literally Nazi” any day.

It was weird and all, but very entertaining and nice in that it did something new

Didn’t care for it personally, but I’m indifferent to most Olympics and halftime shows and such displays, so I also understand it wasn’t meant for me.

I see your comment and I raise you family members who would vote the opposite in an election.

This was a very clear Olympic war full of square structures and no useful triangles that could generate peaceful harmonic energy. Try learning GNU Octave coding for more.

You have to scroll down through their post history for less than 10 seconds to see this guy complaining about being called a nazi.
