    It doesn’t matter if I like Bad Bunny. Simply the idea that anyone of such stature in pop culture today can upset half a nation, doing something so harmless, brings me joy. This is not about you Red Hat Cult idiots.

      Queer dude here who wears skirts in the summer time. Fully agree. Not a big fan of his music, not my style. But he can rock a fucking gown my god.

      To be fair, a lot of his last album is way more interesting than what he’s known for in Spanish speaking countries.

      Like Turista or Lo que le pasó a Hawaii are actually pretty good and the lyrics aren’t just horny bait either. The man has grown into a voice for more than just sex, booze and party.

    Based on the Republicans I know, they will just hit “mute” and go in the kitchen for the halftime show. Their wives might watch parts of it and shake their heads before yelling “There’s a whole thing of ranch dip in the fridge, and I can microwave some Velveeta if you want nachos.”

    So football is woke now? I though it’s just a way for rich people to monetize giving poor people brain injuries while promoting nationalism. Amazing what good PR can do.

      I’d say more corporate woke than woke. A man in a dress is a cultural statement, sure, but it won’t cause a rift in the market the way Palestinian activists getting their message through might. I think Bad Bunny is a force for good though, and the more google searches on his name the better off we are. It’d be nice if the Democrats could muster the courage to support marginalized folks, so in their absence it’s at least nice that celebrities mostly do. At least the ones that haven’t failed out of Hollywood and decided they’re going to be grifters now.

      The halftime show has always been an opportunity for a major musical act to send whatever message they can fit in to a huge portion of America.

      But yes, the game itself is destroying the bodies and minds of players and hopeful players (of whom the most committed tend to be poor and racialized). It’s not nearly enough better than boxing. I don’t really care for any sports, but baseball and basketball seem to be the least horrible (basketball has the ncaa issues though, and really needs a minor league instead). Soccer/football is also good except for heading the ball too much can result in inventing Posadism.

        Strong disagree on football (soccer). Because of it’s popularity and influence it gets away with being the most disgustingly corrupt sport there is. FIFA is organizing championships in stadiums build with slave labor. They gave a peace prize to a fascist just to make sure nothing will stop them from gauging ticket prices. Overall: 🤮

        Then again, I also don’t really care about sports :) Definitely not professional ones. It all gets ugly once money is involved.

          Oh absolutely, but soccer isn’t killing the players is what I meant. Though I also was thinking of MLS not FIFA. Sorry, I can be a bit American sometimes

            You underestimate my ability to dodge current trends. I know who many Gen Z-A artists are because of crossword puzzles. Couldn’t tell you what genre Megan Thee Stallion is, and I can’t remember the name of that one who looks like a scary marionette wizard. I 43 :/

              Megan is shitty commercial rap. “Scary marionette” is pretty vague, but I’m gonna go with Billie Eilish. Also 43.

            Despacito is absolutely not Bad Bunny. That’s Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee
