Thomas Jolly, l’homme de l’ombre, directeur artistique de la cérémonie des JO

Jolly est à l'origine de l'idée de recréer la Cène de Jésus avec des drag-queens, qui mettait en scène un Schtroumpf bleu presque nu et une drag-queen exposant son testicule à côté d'un jeune enfant « tout le monde dout se sentir représenté »

A storm of outrage about the Paris Olympics' opening ceremony has taken a legal turn, with a DJ who performed at the show saying her lawyer is filing complaints over a torrent of threats and other abuse that the LGBTQ+ icon has suffered online in the ceremony's wake. Barbara Butch's lawyer said in a letter posted to the DJ's Instagram on Tuesday that Butch “has been threatened with death, torture and rape, and has also been the target of numerous anti-Semitic, homophobic, sexist and grossophobic insults". Although the ceremony's artistic director Thomas Jolly has repeatedly said that he wasn't inspired by “The Last Supper,” critics interpreted part of the show that featured Butch as a mockery of Leonardo Da Vinci's painting showing Jesus Christ and his apostles. Butch, who calls herself a “love activist", wore a silver headdress that looked like a halo as she got a party going during her segment of the show. Drag artists, dancers and others flanked Butch on both sides. French Catholic bishops and others were among those who said Christians had been hurt and offended.

It hurts me in a horrible way what they did to Barbara Gordon. Because it is not only an insult to the character, but to a symbol that can mean too much to people with mobility difficulties: A healthy representation. But she wasn't just that: she was the expression of love of a writer who knew she had a limited time on this earth, but decided to face it with radical joy, writing a character to reflect her own journey towards self-acceptance and joy before she died.

⎯⎯ paraphrased from a post by wassilastalia on twt.

The Oracle mantle was a way of resignifying Barbara's very sexist character assassination, something that devastated her and reduced her to the “woman in the refrigerator” trope - and yet, from a misogynistic act by which they reduced women's pain, they managed to rebirth her from the ashes to give her a new mantle, a legacy that granted her greater freedom to help people in a global way. There she ceased to be a helper, or someone else composing the writings of someone else's book. That's when Barbara Gordon went on to write her own book, the book of her life.
