My favorite part was how they kept mentioning the sign language interpreters and then never showing them again. Like, give them a picture-in-picture or something. Otherwise, what’s the point?
And just off camera we have sign interpreters. We wont show them but they are there
This is such a non-thing that it hurts to even consider how stupid it is.
But, let’s consider:
-
The Super Bowl is a private corporate event; any song may be performed ceremoniously. That’s protected speech.
-
Not standing up for the Black National Anthem is whatever. That’s protected speech.
-
The Black National Anthem is a colloquial title and has no legal status. That’s protected speech.
-
While there is a statute outlying etiquette for performances of the National Anthem, there are no penalties for not adhering. That’s protected speech.
-
“America the Beautiful” was also performed and there’s no legal basis for etiquette or participation. This song also has a long history of being performed alongside the Star-Spangled Banner to the point that it’s sometimes referred to as the National Hymn, even though that is a colloquial and non-legal designation. That’s protected speech.
-
This is apparently the fourth year that “Lift Every Voice and Sing” has been performed at the Super Bowl. That’s protected speech.
Republicans are anti free speech and always have been. ✅

What doesn’t send them into a meltdown? It’s almost like they’re the things that melt easily that they’re so fond of calling everyone else.
Just like their bigoted positions on LGBTQ+ rights. Like, nobody is forcing you to identify as one. It’s literally as respecting someone to be called John instead of Johnathan.
Then righties go, “bUT I dONt lIkE tHaT nAMe!”
So much for individual freedumb I guess.
They got upset by an energy savings change on Xbox, lmao
Old enough to remember when they went berserk over florescent light bulbs.
Old enough to remember when they lost their minds, because Obama suggested they check their tire pressure.
CFLs were kinda shit tho. I’m so happy LED became standard.
LEDs are definitely an improvement on an improvement. But I’ll never get why people got angry at bulbs that were cooler, brighter, and cheaper by life expectancy than their old filament bulb counterparts.
Reactance. They didn’t feel like they had a choice. CFLs were different and buzzy and the color was off.
Reactance. They didn’t feel like they had a choice.
Only because they weren’t a sizable market share.
CFLs were different and buzzy and the color was off.
Engineering problems that were solved within a few iterations. But by then LEDs that were better and cheaper were hitting the market and the argument became moot.
Now my biggest problem with modern light bulbs is the absurd market-ups relative to what they cost everywhere else on the planet.
“I’m STILL not standing for this divisive garbage. One nation. One anthem.”
But kneeling during the national anthem was such utter disrespect that players should be fired?
God. These people are insufferable.
Let’s not forget that Kap got that suggestion from a Soldier. These asshats don’t bother with context or nuance, it’s all just too woke
Bruh I got into such an intense argument with my parents because I defended the BLM protests. They came at me hardcore for “violence” and “destruction of property”. I asked them what the hell protestors were supposed to do to draw attention to their cause, and they told me that they would have respected a “peaceful protest”.
I then pointed out the fact that Colin Kaepernick’s career still hasn’t recovered, and that they themselves haven’t watched an NFL game since then…so no, they wouldn’t. My dad then of course whipped out his favorite “insult”: “Fucking Liberal”, and then proceeded to tell me that I have no respect for the flag.
The inability for them to think critically is absolutely astounding.
They came at me hardcore for “violence” and “destruction of property”.
Same as it ever was.
Nobody question how much of that damage was caused by squad cars plowing through pedestrian traffic and beanbag rounds crashing through store fronts. Nobody ask why there’s a cop’s night stick protruding from your windshield.
Its those damned violent extremist protesters, I tell you.

Hey, listen. Maybe if the price of toilet paper hadn’t risen so quickly, you’d be right. But I respect the shit out of some cheap disposable material when I’m in a tight spot.
But kneeling during the national anthem was such utter disrespect that players should be fired?
Yeah, cause that was the good Christian White People anthem, not the evil BLM Antifa Communist Hate-American anthem.
I would be upset if I gave a fuck about a sport that’s just a bunch of violent, wife beating fleons lecturing me on what a piece of shit they think I am.
This post has nothing to do with the police.
You think I give a fuck about the police? Lmao.
