I will not be watching the Not-so-super Super Bowl this year. It will be the first time I haven't partaken of the spectacle. I believe that with my whole heart ❤️ if the NFL players put up some sort of protest, like taking a knee and refusing to play, it could really change things. They won't. - ThreadSky

I mean…the NFL kept DEI, that’s worth something.

I’m watching fully hoping Trump gets booed, people bring in signs, whatever. And then we’ve got the potential for Kendrick Lamar to do some shit. One can dream.

Removing the End Racism at the end zones is a test. The NFL didn't drop DEI because 53% of the league identifies as Black or African-American. If we don't push back, they will keep pushing harder until they flatten the whole lot of us.

I’m confident the DEI efforts are geared towards the office, where it’s needed, not athletes. The ‘End Racism’ thing sucks, and I understand if that’s a line for you.

I wanna see the Eagles win. I wanna see DJT get booed. And I think if viewership is down, they’ll just blame on the Chief’s reign.

I can catch up on anything good later. I absolutely refuse to up the viewing numbers. Racism should be a line for everyone, in my honest opinion. We MUST stop this, and money is all they care about. So, no SB for me.

I get that. Just disagree that removing ‘End Racism’ is tantamount to racism, even though I dislike them removing it.

Uh no, the faggot thing was my line. Ahem.

battlestarfanatica.bsky.social•14 days ago

I missed this. What happened?

gchellie.bsky.social•14 days ago

They erased the "End Racism" on the end zones when that asshat fake president Trump decided to inflict himself on the Not-so-super Super Bowl

marcomr11.bsky.social•14 days ago

Got to watch Kendrick. Also I am normally a Chiefs fan but will be rooting for the Eagles

Why? Missing this one performance could make a HUGE point for Democracy!

I think it would be a difficult decision for anyone, but these guys are multimillionaires. It's not like they'll starve.

blessyaheart.bsky.social•15 days ago

No one expects them to starve, but we won’t be complicit and enrich them with our time, attention and money.

Of course not, they're terrified of being shunned and blacklisted like Kaepernick...

gchellie.bsky.social•14 days ago

So what? I gave my all in the Army. Why should they do less??? Cowardice is rarely rewarded. Kaepernick has not faced starvation. I have. Courage, my friend. Courage!!! 💙🩵💙

rddharrowsmith.bsky.social•14 days ago

Cowardice seems to be of epidemic proportion these days, I can't believe the people who have just rolled over and showed their belly for Trump and the Afrikanazi...

gchellie.bsky.social•14 days ago

Agreed

pbparfait.bsky.social•14 days ago

I feel ya. I’ve watched for over 2 decades. Will not be watching this year with Trump attending.
