The stupidest controversy ever
-
The thing I thought of today, which makes it exponentially stupider, is Bunny is an American citizen from birth.

It is weird. It's almost like the Kid Rock brigade are bunch of racists. But that can't be right either. Donald Trump is the
healthiestleast racist president ever. He said so. -
I don’t know what language this is but it’s not English. Russian, presumably.
Education is extremely important.

Which show are you watching?

I’m glad for Sam Darnold. Nice to see a QB redemption arc.

And now the lamentations begin. I'm sorely tempted to work from home today.
The only thing more aggravating than Patriots fans when they win is Patriots fans when they lose.

Going back to the Bad Bunny thing, it is a stupid controversy, but it is a controversy.
There’s a social media influencer from Pittsburgh, former Miami Dolphin cheerleader, Steelers fanatic and she’s getting paid to promote gambling. She’s a real ditz, but a hot blonde…
She posted a video of her at the Super Bowl, watching the TPUSA Show during the Bad Bunny Halftime Show in front of her. She’s gotten over 10K angry replies with threats of people bashing her teeth in.
As a side note, my Facebook Feed popped up with some posts from the Kennedy Center showing the crowd at the Jeff Foxworthy show. The comments were as mean-spirited and angry as you could imagine. The radical parts on both sides need to be shutdown, or we really will devolve to 3rd World Nation status.

Apparently 127MM watched the half time show, a little under 5MM watched TPUSA. Most Americans didn’t need a safe space. Nature is healing.

That doesn’t really say anything. For an alternative broadcast, that’s actually really good numbers. Compare it with any other broadcast or steaming at the same time.
Remember that every bar in the US had multiple TVs on the halftime show. They aren’t changing channels. And a lot of people had the halftime show on at home not because of a conscious effort to watch, but because they just weren’t paying attention.

I read this morning that the TPUSA thing was on their YouTube channel, so a household couldn't just flip to it, you'd have to find it and cast it to your TV.
For a group that presents itself as loving, reasoned and peaceful they sure are belligerent and intolerant. It's things like this that make me reconsider being a registered Republican. Disappointing.

I was only joking
