Nope, google images.

I found only four places with that photo.
I mean, it's a fashion show. No one really wears that crap in real life. lol.
The tweets at the bottom didn't even register with me. I was looking for an appropriately sized pic that would show the clothing but wouldn't take up a whole page. You google "met gala christianity fashion show" and you'll get loads of images.
Quote:People do make fun of other religions...and sometimes all religions. But the powerful one in this country will give the most blowback to criticism.
Oh, I think that would be incorrect. There was almost no "blowback" to this show. Now, if you were drawing Mohammed or mocking Islam, I think you'd get considerably more "blowback"
Quote:If I "mock" the Flat Earth Society vs "mocking" Democrats one has a larger base that will loudly yell about how unfair it is.
I think you'll find both groups are routinely mocked without much, if any, "blowback".
Quote:And again I limited it to the US. What happens in the ME wasn't part of that. Nor Africa or Europe. Here.
Ok, I reiterate my question, how much cultural power does a group have to possess before it's acceptable to make fun of them or mock their tenants?
