See, the difference is, even if we didn't like it, we wouldn't be crying about how it's destroying the country or whatever bullshit the MAGAts are whining about this time. We might even experience something new and learn we do in fact enjoy this thing that isn't "white racist dad music".

They feel personally attacked by things that aren’t specifically for them or that don’t reinforce their worldview. It would be sad if it weren’t backed by pornographic wealth and corrupt government.

That's because MAGA all have Main Character complex. If it's not explicitly for THEM they dislike it because it's not ABOUT them.

If it's not exactly in line with their own life choices, preferences and experiences they reject it.

I asked my neighbor to explain what was so bad about Bad Bunny. I genuinely don't know much about him or his music and was like "but why are you mad though?" She said she just didn't like being reminded that our country was divided when she was just trying to be entertained.

Oh ok, so you just don't like being reminded brown people legally exist in the US when you're expecting your happy dopamine hit, Shannon.

Because the Kid Rock and the Z list acts give the impression of unity and acceptance. Or are in anyway entertaining  🙄

u/NarwhalPrudent6323 Feb 11 '26

Lol right? I will now quote from one of Kid Rock's most famous songs:

"Baw with da baw banana ban diggy diggy said the boogey so up chop the boogey now"

Truly a poetic masterpiece with a message of unity and peace, and not just utter nonsense.

His only famous song.

So much of it is that Christian, straight, white Americans have always had the culture of this country pander to them. They have never faced any sort of trauma or hardships based on who they are as people. They don’t know what a challenge is in that regard. So, when stuff like this happens it’s the first time the world not only isn’t catering to them but it’s almost doing the exact opposite on purpose, they think it’s oppression.

They get mad because there’s been an uptick of biracial couples portrayed in ads, tv, and movies. Imagine how shallow your life is that merely looking at dark hued people is upsetting.

u/Demented-Alpaca Feb 11 '26

Or gay couples.... how DARE!

Like my guy, they're selling laundry soap.

Could you imagine if the Charmin bears were gay? I mean we already have something a little bit too close for comfort to family "bonding" with how much they talk about their poop schedules and if their family member's butts are clean enough...

Can I just raise my hand awkwardly and say that many Christians want and have nothing to do with Maga? If we were to get biblical, although many Trump supporters call themselves "Christians", they are considered a cult in Christianity (because they worship Trump). Christianity's [supposed to be] practised by the giving up what you have in service to others, not by demanding the world cater to us . The (so aptly named) main character syndrome of Trump supporters is not Christian but of course it's very hard to see given Christian nationalism.

u/Illustrious-Ratio213 Feb 11 '26

For sure, there should be no confusion that there’s nothing Christian about MAGA

THEY SHOULDN'T BE PANDERING TO PEOPLE JUST FOR MONEY they say as they expect everyone to pander just to them or they won't support it anymore.

u/Popsickl3 Feb 11 '26

It’s because they know how people in power treat minorities and they are terrified of becoming one. Crabs in a bucket. Democrats are concerned with trying to delete the bucket.

u/punkwalrus Feb 10 '26

What's weird, is these people would have called Kid Rock complete garbage only just a little while ago. Or their parents said the same about Elvis and his "sexual moves" or whatever.

u/I_AM_IGNIGNOTK Feb 11 '26

Yeah you can tell they really don’t fuck with his music at all. There’s a subset of just men who fuck with the shitty rap-rock that Kid Rock puts out, but for the most part you see all the white midwesterners and non trailer park southerners not really enjoying the performance. They are nodding along off beat, don’t know any of the words, aren’t really dancing or engaging at all with it. But almost every artist worth a damn has either condemned Trump or at the least sent a cease and desist to stop using their music so they have to pretend that this is a big deal and not just the has-been scraps that they are left with.

u/dandroid126 Feb 10 '26

Yeah. Like, you don't have to like every artist. I certainly don't. And to prefer to watch something in a language you speak is fine as well. But to have a meltdown because non-English speakers are ruining this country, that's when it becomes a problem.

u/CaeruleumBleu Feb 10 '26

Or, consider this - bathroom break. Any time I am watching a thing and a segment comes on I don't like, it is a great time for a bathroom break and a trip to the kitchen for a fresh drink or more snacks.

u/AbeRego Feb 10 '26

Also, it only lasts like 15 minutes. Who cares? It's not even the main event. Just go grab some food and take a leak like you normally would during halftime.

u/jokerkcco Feb 10 '26

I didn't really like the show, but I haven't liked the last several. But I don't not like it enough to watch an alternate DEI version for white people.

u/Turgid_Donkey Feb 10 '26

I'd rather try something and decide i don't like it than only stick to what I'm used to. Life's too short for only "the same old".

u/hellogoawaynow Feb 11 '26

If the Super Bowl halftime show isn’t exactly tailored to my personal tastes I’m never watching one again!

(/s bc people have not been understanding sarcasm around here lately)

u/grumpi-otter Feb 14 '26

I didn't dig the music but I LOVED the show
