The world rejoices at another opportunity to mock the latter into oblivion.

TLDR; The usual

There's serious "this photo of a buff woman completely derailed a podcast about the state of the white man for three episodes" energy around this image

I mean seriously! I can't really understand why people must have such polarized and toxic reaction over some art performance. I get that this may not be for everyone, but just like the movies series before had mixed reaction, this live action Smurf Musical will find his fan base in time...

btw. what aboth dionysus?

Fun fact: Dionysus, Greek god of wine and festivity, and Zagreus, Greek god of blood and rebirth, are the same being!

Having polarized toxic reactions to things, and being outspoken about it, is the conservative way of life!

To be fair, it was about the bigots too. I had to look up the song after a certain group blew up about it. It's a lovely song about inclusivity and what it might take for us to stop fighting eachother.
