The landscape of the emotional right in 1993 was nothing like it is today


Due to what? Why do you think peak pop era Michael Jackson didn’t piss them off but some guy they’ve never heard of singing in Spanish does? It’s just cause they’ve changed?

Do you not think the 1993 NFL could have found an entertainer to equally trigger them? Do you, even for a minute, wonder why that wouldn’t even be remotely considered as something they’d want to do then, but something you (or at least many others) seem giddy about now?

Solely due to some vast sea change amongst the “emotional right” huh?

Godell is just pandering to his corporate masters who keep the $$ flowing, but this will definitely get him fired if the FCC comes after them with huge fines.

Yeah right. Nothing is going to happen to him, unfortunately. He's doing what the majority of the NFL want.

Let me ask you this question. If you claim no one on the right OR left has ever heard of him prior to this SB….how does he have so many streams? Is your argument bots? That’s the best you got?


Good grief, this is why DEI needs to be eliminated from them medical field.

You do realize that Bad Bunny is an international star who’s not only popular in segments of America but also…… wait for it…. Worldwide!

My point is that people like you who are defending him from the left are no different than people on the right bashing him even though you think you have the moral high ground.

2 things can be true: it was a good show that could have used some English so that it was more inclusive AND the TPUSA show was enjoyable too

I'm guessing the internet/social media, which is why it exploded under Obama.

Just look at this thread and how they can't even make sensical arguments and then retreat into irrational ad homs when asked to support those nonsensical arguments

This is about team identification and emotional priming. Lots of people are just acting like NPCs on behalf of their perceived in group.

quote:

I don't think tigering anyone had any part in choosing Bad Bunny. He's one of the biggest acts in the world and they're focusing on expanding into world markets, especially Spanish-speaking ones where they've made lots of progress with football the past decade. Having football become entrenched in Mexico alone is a 130M market, basically a 33% increase from the US market.

Are people giddy about Bad Bunny or just laughing at the insane trailer park reaction to him?

It is, but that's a different group engaging in their own outward behaviors.


quote:

Nobody made this argument. Don't double down on dishonesty.


I don't have to make the argument. If the premise of the show itself is virtue signaling the only way to not virtue signal is to not create it. You have to market the show to get the public attention. You cannot dump hundreds of thousands of dollars into a show, not make an announcement and then just start live streaming and hope people notice. The promotion of an alternative show is being labeled as snowflake behavior. If you agree with that last sentence than the only alternative is to not have an alternative.

quote:

People making fun of the TPUSA event or those who watched are not saying it shouldn't have even been an option.


See above. If you are making fun of someone for watching the TPUSA alternative you are saying their only two options should have been to turn off the tv and do nothing, or endure the main halftime show.

quote:

It was done by people trying to make money manipulating snowflakes, is a better description.


By that definition every single product ever created is done to manipulate people. They saw an opening in the market and took it. Bad Bunny's music promotes a lifestyle that is completely incompatible with the morals I want instilled in my family. I am not alone. So rather than not watching a halftime show, we had the opportunity for an alternative show. I wasn't manipulated. But this goes back to you thinking anyone who stands against modern culture is either a bad actor or a neanderthal.

quote:

No, it is, and you've even had to pivot from it and ignore it in this whole post.

You ignore what the "signaling" part of virtue signaling even means


You are limiting the entire argument to virtue signaling and that isn't the point. Snowflake behavior and virtue signaling are not the same thing, both terms are being used. Lets have a conversation about the entire concept of an alternative halftime show.

Wait a minute, but everyone here keeps telling me he was “unknown” prior to the SB!

How have I defended him? I am simply laughing at people who are trying to argue he was “unknown.” Seems like you agree with me. Took you a while, but you got there

Not really. You avoid taking a position on most threads so you don't have to defend any 1 position. You are the "well achtually" meme in real life. FWIW, i don't know why the other poster is surprised by this.

Marketing. Wanting Hispanics to start watching NFL.

The TPUSA show was horrific.

No, it should not have included English. Ole boy doesn't sing in English. Now an English translation on the screen? Yeah, I would have liked that. I jam the frick out of Rammstein, and they don't speak a lick of English.

Again, I ask....

What did he say that has this group pissed off? I'm not reading that article nor am I going to take the time to have a translator run while watching it again. I liked it, but once was enough.

Marketing is not what's being discussed.

It's more a grift of snowflake behavior

Well grift may be too harsh. A marketing opportunity targeting snowflakes is more fair.

If Charlie Kirk was alive I don't think this show happens.

Not at all. This is bad logic.

Everyone is saying that you're free to make choices. But people also get to make fun of you for those choices if its applicable.

THIS is snowflake logic, which also ignores that those same snowflakes have no problem criticizing/mocking the perceived out group. This is the irony they don't get when making this silly "argument". We're not talking about saints here who hold their opinion of the out group quiet.

Bad Bunny's music promotes a lifestyle that is completely incompatible with the morals I want instilled in my family.

And Kid Rock's music is compatible with that?

Brother, I was responding to YOUR example

quote:

They decided to turn Bad Bunny off and flipped to the Turning Point alternative show, because he feels the content that will be shown is more appropriate for his audience. By your wide sweeping definition, he is an overly emotional virtue signaler that isn't using logic.

It depends on the thread

If I'm pointing out dishonesty, bad rhetoric, etc. then that's the focus

I post about policy all the time, though. It's just that we don't have those threads as often as the ones built on dishonesty, bad rhetoric, etc.

And I’m laughing at leftist like you who feel the need to run into every Bad Bunny thread to defend him, I mean “laugh”.

You can check my post history since the Super Bowl too. This is the first BB thread I’ve participated in with the exemption of me posting I have Bad Bunny fatigue.

I have Bad Bunny fatigue from both sides

I’m guessing it’s a chicken or the egg thing that sort of coincides with this seeming rabid desire of historically normal institutions to poke “normies” in the eye.

You already admitted the emotional reaction of such folks was not surprising to you. You can’t believe it wasn’t to those who made the choice. It seems silly to argue it wasn’t at least a partial driving force in making the choice, then. Hell, it’s hard to really argue there was any point but “triggering.”
