There’s 300 million+ people in the US. While Football is extremely popular, and having a Super Bowl watching party is almost a holiday style event, not every one appreciates the sport.
As the day became more holiday like, they added a show at half-time which usually is a mega-music production in and of itself that many people want to watch.
Capitalism being capitalism, commercial spots during that time are expensive and in high demand, so companies started making hilarious commercials because of the extreme amount of viewers during that time. What this ends up being is kind of a day that has something for everyone, music, sports, comedy, companionship etc.
It’s weird if you just look at from top down view but in context and with a little history it’s actually a pretty nice not holiday
Yea whatever you need to tell yourself to boost your self esteem. I’m glad you have blind optimism at this point, I truly am. Reality and your world view don’t agree however, I honestly wish it did. Also, you called me Tim Fucking Pool, so yea still fuck you
Wow your entire post is bullshit. And Tim Pool? Fuck you.
You think our dollars now control the Govt? We have a group of billionaires that are able to use their vast wealth to destabilize democracy across the globe. And while doing it they are getting richer. they can spend more in a month than any dedicated group n the US and not even blink.
People like you have never picked up a damn history book. You don’t know anything about sociology or psychology. You point to some random website like we aren’t already at the point where people are getting fucking taken in the middle of the streets, where every fucking control and law is broken by the current administration and no one with power will do anything about it.
You think having a protest is gonna fix things. You think donating an extra 10 bucks to AOC is gonna be the thing stopping this train to hell. Read a fucking history book man. They’ve already said the next step is to have ICE at the voting booth, which is so fucking illegal and spelled as such in great detail that even saying that would trigger impeachment investigations. Instead all we hear are “OOOOH we’ll have a national walk out! That’ll teach them to overthrow democracy!”
Because everything is on fire all at once, people are scared/exhausted/lack any actual leadership (Fuck you Schumer) and when that happens people hunker down, until something so atrocious happens it breaks through the fog of fear.
Couple that with every major media company being owned by facist Trump Cronies and well… yea
And before some asshat starts going “Then why don’t you do something?” Look out your front door. You willing to go murder your neighbor right now? Because that’s what it’ll come to, a massive civil war. So yeah, nothing is happening yet but the rumbles are there and we are all fucked no matter the outcome.
And as someone who worked in a nursing home for a year when I was in my 20s, that “put put putput put” sound that happens twice is exactly the sound of someone shitting themselves in a diaper. You get used to listening for it
Try a harp instead
