Jesus Erased: Porsche Facing Backlash Over Ad’s Omission
Luxury car brand Porsche has found itself in hot water following the release of an advertisement celebrating 60 years of the Porsche 911.
The advertisement has drawn criticism for apparently editing out the Cristo Rei—a statue of Jesus Christ that stands as a prominent Christian symbol overlooking the city of Lisbon, Portugal.
The German company, renowned for its high-end sports cars, launched a campaign last week commemorating six decades of “very fast years” for the Porsche 911 and introducing a special edition model, the 2024 Porsche 911 S/T. The ad, spanning about two and a half minutes, showcases the evolution of the iconic 911.
Denouncing the Dangerous and Pseudo-Christian Antisemitism of Nick Fuentes
It’s the same old story repeated yet again, although this time the call for violence is open and overt. The evil, Christ-rejecting Jews control America, and they must be ousted from power.
After all, this is a Christian nation, and we don’t want those Christ haters ruling over us. To the contrary, we will crush them in a holy war, and it is they who will die, not us.
So says Nick Fuentes (born 1988), founder of the America First movement, which describes itself as “the synthesis of traditional values, Trumpian populism and American Nationalism.” It also cloaks itself in Christian rhetoric, making it all the more insidious.
Successful Film Takes Kingdom War to Cultural Tragedy
The “Sound of Freedom” has passed $163 million in box office ticket sales, outgrossing big-budget competitors and becoming the surprise hit of the summer. All this despite early criticism of the movie by detractors who mislabeled it “Q-anon adjacent” and called out the politics of star Jim Caviezel.
For anti-trafficking advocates who have sought for decades to shine a spotlight on the exploitation of sex trafficking victims, the movie has provided welcomed awareness.
“Our website numbers have just skyrocketed with people being interested,” said Linda Smith, founder of Shared Hope International. {eoa}
