Jeffrey Tucker may be overoptimistic here. He’s asking a football game to carry a lot of freight. From Tucker at The Epoch Times via zerohedge.com:
Public media culture has been mostly something to dread for several years at least. So we watched the Super Bowl only with trepidation. What woke nonsense was going to be dumped on our heads? How will the ads manipulate us? How will the official program preach values to us that are contrary to how we want to raise our kids?
To my great relief and surprise, I did not detect any of this. It seemed like men and women gathering to enjoy a nice competitive game and having fun, like the old days. That’s it. Nothing more. I asked several others if they had seen anything weird going on and everyone said no.
Well, there were two exceptions.
- First, the idea of two national anthems is highly dangerous and divisive, even evil. That must end immediately.
- Second, some creepy pro-devil stuff seemed to be going on in the Taylor Swift box, about which we could have seen much less.
Other than that, it was largely a woke-free event.
What’s happening here? How did we go from several years ago when the halftime show featured China-style hazmat suits and other creepy “Great Reset” outfits to what seemed now like a normal and old-fashioned show? How come the entire event seemed to lack the preachy and leftist quality we’ve come to associate with public culture?
Soap opera for men and I called the Swifty Bowl months ago at Bro’s extra big azz teevee wall cave.
People watch sportsball to escape from a dreary reality for a few hours on the weekend, not to be beat over the head with political messages.
Ruining everything intentionally is part of demoralization.
