Keeping up the proud tradition of hating Puerto Rico.
These MAGA snowflakes are making themselves a safe space and awarding themselves a participation trophy even though they lost this one 🤣🤣🤣
Pessimistic take: Given how much weird involvement presidents have always historically had with the Superbowl, I honestly just kind of assumed the Bad Bunny as “such a controversial pick” was intentionally meant to stir shit up for marketing purposes.
It provides the left with a feeling of control by knowing that people that buy into the outrage (see the recent cracker barrel controversy, that was mainly bot driven marketing) are triggered. Tons of people who don’t give a shit about football (or even Bad Bunny) will now make a point to at least watch the half time show for the chance to see the right wing outrage machine being owned on a national stage.
Everybody who buys into the “this is a disgrace and I am personally offended and outraged” machine, can tune into the TPUSA half time show, and feel their own little slice of control. There’s even a chance many of the sponsors of the TPUSA half time show will be part of a parent conglomerate that also owns the sponsors of the Superbowl halftime show.
Create a controversy and market to both sides of the controversy. Americans spend money to support “their side,” but it turns out that both sides are owned by the same people. Example, Dove might sponsor the Superbowl while Axe Body Spray will sponsor the TPUSA show. Unilever still makes money regardless.
Maybe I missed something along the way but what in the ever loving fuck is up with this obsession over Lee Greenwood from the right? He is not a generational talent and has absolutely 0 appeal to a majority of people.
The RW is not exactly known for their great taste in…well, anything.
I’ve never heard of them.
what in the ever loving fuck is up with this obsession over Lee Greenwood from the right?
They have almost nobody else to choose from. The vast majority of artists lean left (or at minimum lean away from the rightwingnuts).
This is why they’re so good at what they do and are winning. They never take a loss. They constantly flip these things to their advantage. The left just yell “Fuck off nazi scum” for the millionth time and then wait for tomorrows news to forget about the thing that pissed them off yesterday. Like fucking goldfish. When was the last time the left did something like this?
The left can’t even manage to sway the charts in any meaningful way. It’s not like people are sharing his music and giving him a bump. Cause why would we ever do that. Rally around someone. Just passively watch and comment hoping for some victory to just materialize on it’s own.
hahaha I just scrolled down after posting this and the second comment is “Just blatant, bald faced racism. Just non stop racism from these nazi loving racists.” never fucking change guys, never change.
“They never take a loss”
I’m gonna stop you right there.
you need to find another job, Israeli trolls on r/world_news do a better job than you can ever do.
Culturally, the left doesn’t press these issues. They happen. Everybody writes a lame comment that’s usually about 15 years old. They move on.
Charlie Kirk getting shot was at least a small moment where a few started creating content and others shared it. That energy is needed for those two articles you linked. Cause without it, nobody cares.
So where the fuck is that energy?
Instead you call me a shill. Like get real. How about looking at what I’m saying. The left are involved in a game they’re not even playing.
Protect your neck.
Perfect example. Someone else responded with some story that nobody knows about. Their response was like “yea they take losses” but then shows me two storeys that barely anyone can remember. We don’t remember because we’re not keeping these things alive and fresh. Charlie Kirk was the last time we could muster a half ass attempt at what they do every single fucking day. Where the hell is that energy on the left.
Protec*
Who’s Charlie Kirk
Be happy you don’t know the name, be happy you haven’t seen the shameful behavior of people world wide when he got shot, and I’m not even talking about people being happy about his untimely passing
A gumball machine all outta gumballs and the toddlers are tantruming in the store because mommy can’t fit them all back in the clown wagon again.
Some racist guy that got shot, idk they’re butt hurt about it
And an advocate for what killed him.
He’s an American citizen. Like … There’s not even a way to plausibly deny that this is solely because he is brownish and speaks Spanish.
Laugh in the face of anyone who praises it
Just blatant, bald faced racism. Just non stop racism from these nazi loving racists.
House Speaker Mike Johnson said booking Bad Bunny was “a terrible decision,” suggesting that Lee Greenwood would attract a “broader audience,” despite the 1980s country icon boasting fewer than 500,000 Spotify listeners compared with Bad Bunny’s 80 million.
I kinda wish this would happen. It’d go down as the most disappointing Superb Owl half time show in history.
Lol I am a Raiders season ticket holder, and since they moved to Vegas, the halftime shows have been superb. I’ve seen Lil Jon twice, Sublime with Rome, Ice Cube, and I feel like I’m missing a couple, but they have been for the most part, great. Lee Greenwood did one once, and first of all, I had to Google just to see who tf he was, then he was God awful. Out of pitch and just sounded like he was too old to still be performing. He played the proud to be uh 'murican song and finally fucked off. I hope Chudpoint USA hires this moron for their unwoke halftime show. It’ll be a disaster.
Who the fuck is Lee Greenwood?
Music for people who hate music.
He sang the “Proud to be an American” song, which is played at pretty much every 4th of July or other vaguely patriotic event in the south at least. But I can’t name one other song he sang, and I don’t see any reason at all to be proud of the USA right now.
And like 0.00000001% of the audience will watch that instead of the bad bunny show lol
All American like Qatari air bases?
In Idaho.
Why did Idaho matter here? Not from America so I can’t understand why that particular state matters?
I looked it up and it seems like Qatar might be able to help Idaho with it’s issues with medical care for women. Apparently even with the absurd discrimination they suffer, health wise they appear to be better off than women in Idaho.
The Seven Mountain Mandate people sure are delicate little flowers, aren’t they?
Dominionists, is another way to refer to them.
I find it’s helpful to point out their supporting structures. They always go on about shadowy leftist groups like “antifa” that don’t even have a freaking website, never mind any founders, any funding, any meetings, anyone in the group with any kind of platform or power or organization, etc…meanwhile, these assholes have things like Project 2025, ALEC, and the Seven Mountains Mandate stuff…

What’s the complaint? That it’s not an American performing?
The Who performed at the Superbowl before. They’re not American…
The complaint is that he’s brown and speaks another language.
I wish they would just admit it. If you have to lie about what’s upsetting you, you should realize your reasoning for being upset is probably BS.
He is American. I still laugh at who the Squeaker of the House threw out there as a better alternative…Lee Greenwood, which I had to look up, because I never heard of him. Unlike Bad Bunny - I don’t pay that much attention to pop music, but even I know who he is…
From another reply:
Yeah, I know. I should’ve made it more clear that I was attempting to get into their misinformed heads.
They don’t know that he’s American, but they’re not even consistent. There have been non-American performances at the Superbowl before, so I don’t even know what the complaint is supposed to be.
He’s Puerto Rican…
Yeah, I know. I should’ve made it more clear that I was attempting to get into their misinformed heads.
They don’t know that he’s American, but they’re not even consistent. There have been non-American performances at the Superbowl before, so I don’t even know what the complaint is supposed to be.
Just not part of the white America.
I miss the days of the kitten superbowl halftime show
They still have it. Puppy bowl.
The only halftime show that matters
Charlie Kirk would be proud. He was a racist piece of shit.
He’d be proud his staff is taking a shot at this.
