Conservatives losing their minds over Bad Bunny performing the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show.

[HomerJS]

Why?

Same group of people who went apoplectic over last year's Super Bowl's halftime show because it was "too black". Some of these people claim it's because his songs are in Spanish. Ever heard of Luciano Pavarotti? He sings in Italian. No complaints about him. There are instrumental musical acts, yet they can be enjoyed by all. Previous years these same people complained about the hip-hop show. Prior to that they complained about Rhianna. I didn't know who bad Bunny was until a year ago but that's not the point. Worldwide he is extremely popular and well liked.

They tried to claim it was because Bad Bunny wasn't American and they had to be reminded being born in Puerto Rico makes you an American citizen. They also had to be reminded of previous acts that were not American

The Rolling Stones
U2
Paul McCartney
Shania Twain
Coldplay
Sting

It's the same group of people who lost their minds back in 2013 when an SB Cheerios commercial featured the first interracial couple. People lost their minds over the black father.

It's the same group of people who applauded Tim Tebow taking a knee on the field but were up in arms when done by Colin Kapernick.

These people are just plain racist. If I'm wrong, why?

Looking back at the list of Superbowl headliners, it is nice to see some younger faces. It was god's waiting room for a few years.

The anger industrial complex demands red meat to keep the rubes scared and tuned in for this precious advertising dollars.

It’s funny they call liberals “snowflakes” but it’s just projection.

I propose a clandestine change of show, where they do Springtime For Hitler, with a Trump impersonator playing Adolf. It'll be a surprise til it airs.

If anything, it's pretty funny that Speaker Johnson was complaining about this, but somehow always misses the news about outrageous things the administration is doing because he claims he doesn't really follow those developments. He's such a bad liar.

I think they should change it to a Public Enemy reunion.

Conservative criticism aside, I still don’t understand why the NFL gave up total control of the halftime show programming to Pepsi and RocNation the way they did.
Country music has been enjoying a mainstream moment over the past 18 months and would resonate better with their audience. Northern California (hosting the Super Bowl) has always been a hotbed of modern rock, punk, alternative and other genres. IMHO, those would play better than Bad Bunny—someone I think who’d fit better with a Super Bowl in NYC or Miami.

The NFL should cancel their deal with Pepsi/RocNation.

I won't be watching the sportsball game or the halftime show, but if it pisses the fascists off, I'm 100% in support of it.

They're creating their own half-time show.

Turning Point USA is throwing its own Super Bowl halftime show, the “All-American Halftime Show,” celebrating “faith, family and freedom.” Songs are gonna be all in English.

I'm pretty sure I can give it a pass.

They totally need that woman who sang for the Bundys during the Malheur standoff.

I guess some folks are pissed that chances are slim for an old-time Country/Western ecumenically racist caucasian act to steal the half time show any time soon. Or hey, maybe if Trump bullies the right people like he's famous for, he could get Ted Nugent to spread his Stormtroopin' wings at next year's Super whoop-dee-doo.

I can't believe I only recently encountered this, but he is henceforth to be known as Ped Nugent.

There goes their dive deeper down the hole of alt-reality again. It's a real shame that the folks who're pushing this Christo-fascist White Nationalist agenda have a need to divide America that way, especially when their self-serving so-called president can only exist in his position of power if he keeps the American working class separated by their party's exploitation of racism, religion and abandonment of ethics and moral values.

Trump's efforts at keeping his flock of fools feeling threatened, victimized and mind-numbingly indifferent to his crimes and efforts to crown himself king is so amazing to observe looking at that spectacle from the outside inward. It's like watching a fully matured rabies infected hyena viciously eating itself to death.

I’m sure their performers will be wearing white pointy hoods.

Turning point will be irrelevant by the time the Super Bowl airs.

You cant use the mirror technique. They're too far gone, doesnt recognize their own reflection. Really. It is what it is.

Show's MAGA's ignorance about their own country. Exposing their stupidity makes me chuckle. She tried to move on when exposed she missed social studies in school.

Summary as to why their objection is all about MAGAts being racist.

I was at a quinceañera and heard a lot of Bad Bunny and everyone of all races and color were having a great time dancing to it, even those of us who couldn't understand what he was saying.

 

[BoomerD]

Yet another half time show I won’t watch. I don’t give a shit about his nationality…he’s American, FFS, nor do I care about him singing in Spanish…although that seems insulting to the majority of NFL fans, but rather, until this controversy, I really had no idea who the hell he was. I had heard the name, but that’s it. The little bit I’ve heard since this started…not my jam.

 

[skyking]

Completely aside from the topic, I absolutely love the origin of his stage name.
As a child he was forced to wear a bunny costume for a presentation at school, and he was not happy about it. He found the picture and that is it. He was Bad Bunny.

 

[uallas5]

Maybe they can get Roseanne to sing the national anthem?


For anyone who doesn't know, it was 35 years ago and still considered one of the worst renditions of all time.

Worse than Enrico Pallazzo?

I never liked anything after Journey to the Cener of your mind. Which was still a pretty throw away song anyway.
