The Spin

Right narrative

The drag parody of Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" was a direct attack on Christian values that form the bedrock of Western civilization. This development serves as a reminder that woke nonsense is indeed a threat to the West as, if Western civilization fails to protect its own culture and institutions, its decline is inevitable.

Left narrative

Though some have misinterpreted the tableau featuring drag artists, dancers, and others flanking LGBTQ+ icon Barbara Butch as a mockery of Da Vinci's "The Last Supper," that was never the case. The sketch was intended to celebrate diversity, inclusion, love, and French gastronomy — it was never an attack on Christianity.
