General Discussion

And I am not talking about the swine in the White House with the dirty diapers. I am talking about the NFL. Maybe they are the 800 Pound Gorilla rather than the elephant metaphor.

Be that as it may, my point is that the NFL has been notoriously right-wing forever. Every team is owned by billionaires. They celebrate every game with a jingoistic display of militarism with grotesquely large flags, and aircraft flyovers when possible

And this is the organization that lost its shit when one player decided to kneel during the national anthem That is the NFL, fucking right-wingers, today's plantations owners from top to bottom. That's who they are, most of them anyway.

So, how could they have programmed Green Day, Bad Bunny, Lady Gaga, knowing they were going to bring a message 100X as pointed as Colin Kaeppernick?

Well, there is one and only one thing the NFL owners believe more strongly that the authoritarianism that gives them any privilege they could ever want. And that one thing is money.

They programmed the world's grandest protest because the NFL knows how to read the room. And that is a good thing. 2026 is an inflection point, and the NFL doesn't want to end up on the wrong side of that. Simple as that.
