Toilet Paper USA

It must be so sad to belong to the drab old culture MAGA idolizes, and watch the entire world just move the fuck on constantly, not giving a single shit, when you think that football-and-Jesus culture is some kind of temple eternal.

Watching 300 lb men huddle in spandex for 4 hours not gay, but 2 halftime music acts are way too far beyond the rainbow...

[–] Joeffect@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

They even touch each other on the butts...

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 40 points 18 hours ago (8 children)

How gay is that?! They need to have their own party, because they aren't welcome at the regular one. Such cry babies with their safe spaces and delicate feelings.

I’ll make my own halftime show, with pedos, and mar-a-Lago face!

[–] theblurstoftimes@leminal.space 7 points 15 hours ago

They would know all about what gay is I guess.

Nazis sure are some fragile people.

Usually if a group of people spend several years calling everything a snowflake... Yeah it do be like that

[–] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 4 points 18 hours ago

There's a very high probability that TP's half time show is going to be way gayer than the real one, just unintentionally.

[–] switcheroo@lemmy.world 39 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

When a bunch of conservatives get together, they crash grindr, so... Yeah.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 15 points 20 hours ago

Every accusation of theirs is a confession. Every single one. No exceptions.

Conservatives don't assimilate into American society.

[–] IronBird@lemmy.world 13 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

They're whole ethos is antisocial. They are obstinent toddlers who stomp their feet and fold their arms and think it's funny to make other people mad.

I mean superpower has sucked (to me) forever, so imm skip the game, the halftime show and the alternate halftime show.

While im dissenting, I also think every publicly financed football stadium should share 5% of profits with its host city. And some of that should be set aside to bulldoze the stadium when it reaches its end of life.

FYI the Superbowl is a great time to go to the grocery store. I mark it on my calendar so I don't forget

[–] Nomorereddit@lemmy.today 2 points 13 hours ago

Genius....Maybe i hit up home depot while im out. Ty btsax!

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

That is such a good idea

[–] limelight79@lemmy.world 139 points 1 day ago (9 children)

Do they know that football involves a bunch of men grabbing each other?

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If I told someone I had a video of muscular dudes in spandex pants wrestling around with each other in the mud, they'd think I never miss pride events, but tell them its the most recent superbowl and suddenly...

They'll be exchanging Nazi salutes while reading the bible. Fuck them.

Conservative Fragility

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 100 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (13 children)

I would say the superbowl isn't gay enough. The half-time show should be all 24 players having an orgy on the field. That'd certainly get me to watch the dumb foosball game.

Well, this shows once again that the right-wing extremists need their own artificially staged reality in order to somehow justify all the outrageous lies of the MAGA leadership: they simply cannot allow people to peacefully celebrate sporting events.

It's really absurd how blind these idiots are. They just can't see that the imaginary enemy images that are being mindlessly propagated here simply serve to distract from how thoroughly degenerate the leaders of this "movement" are, from the fact that they are actually the enemies of all halfway decent people.

The stupidity is really only surpassed by the ruthlessness of the criminals responsible for this moronic deception.

I thought they don't like politics in football. If they don't like it, then leave.

[–] Inucune@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago

So wait, you're going to try and run a second concert in competition with the super bowl halftime show, and still associate it with the super bowl/NFL?

The lawyers are going to eat them alive for the fees.
