The HT show was full of symbolism. You need to have at least some level of awareness of Latino culture to understand it.


Over 90% of people that watched have no idea what the message was and we're just sitting there bored.


No…I can recognize that something is not very specifically directed at me and doesn’t reflect my cultural background and still enjoy it. I can still appreciate it and connect to it. How do you travel? Or go to a museum? Or watch movies?


And please tell us why the main show at the Super Bowl, the ultimate in American entertainment, should not reflect our cultural background?



Exactly this. I love learning about different cultures and respect all of them, but I’m not sure the Super Bowl, which is known for being American, should be about only other cultures. If they had made it “all American”, there would be so much backlash. Can you imagine if there were only white people in it? I thought it was a beautiful performance, just not appropriate for this situation.


One of the three singers in the show, the one who performed for the second longest was white. So people asking where the white people in this show missed the white lady front and center?

I mean A) PR is American and B) I'm from Florida and this heavily resembled home for me.




There was one white person in the show. And yes, I know that Puerto Rico is a part of America, but this show was not American. They spoke a language that most people in America don’t speak.


I just don't know how anyone could write a sentence like this and not get it.


Let me clarify then. Puerto Rico is technically an American territory, but not like the rest of the country try… they have no electoral college or voting rights. Puerto Rico, as a country is typically known to represent a Latin culture. The language that they speak, the food etc. I don’t think that most people who are from Puerto Rico claimed to be American, they claimed to be Latino. Puerto Rico is a fairly new addition to the United States, within the last 125 years, and it’s history is that of Spain.



So... Puerto Rico has been part of the US for more time than say... Hawaii?

Seriously just stop. You're not helping yourself here at all.


Exactly. In Hawaii has a beautiful history and culture, just like Puerto Rico, but it’s different than American culture.


So you've decided whole parts of the US aren't "American"? You're just doubling down on that?


It’s not that I’ve decided that they aren’t American, it’s that some parts of America have a long withstanding, culture and history, that should absolutely be celebrated and understood, maybe just not at the halftime show.

If you dislike the bad bunny performance you’re racist and MAGA.


You can dislike the performance and not be racist.

Claiming it wasn't American is 100% racist.


Honestly. This is the problem with left-wing people. If you don’t agree with everything, you are automatically a racist who loves Maga. You can disagree with the halftime to show and still be pro immigration and anti-ice.


The left wing people here aren't telling people they're racist if Bad Bunny isn't their thing. The people on this forum who are being called racist are saying Bad Bunny (and now Hawaii, apparently?) Aren't American.

I'd love to see how the "PR and Hawaii aren't American" poster would react to a halftime show of Native American dancing.

It was barely political to me except for the last part which was more of a hope and unity positivity thing more than being against something. Last years show was political.

What a stupid analogy. If they only broadcast it in languages I can't understand, then yes I will be annoyed

Not Brazil. Just the Spanish speaking countries.


Canada is a Spanish speaking country?


Well, not Brazil.


Yes. He listed Brazil and the flag was there.

I fully expect the World Cup to feature country music. It needs to appeal to a wider audience, no?


I'm not expecting any half time show at the world cup

Why not at the superbowl? Yes it’s an American tradition but it’s also one of our newer ones. Why can’t it evolve as America evolves?

Oh boy, wait until you learn about the Jones Act and how a shipping law from the 1920s hamstringed Puerto Rico's ability to recover from Hurricane Maria.

Oh the World Cup is silent with no music? Fascinating. Tell us more about this event with zero music.

Actually, most people in America do speak Spanish. Get with the times!


100!

And non whites are now the global majority. This is what all this “freak-out represents.” Not the majority in the world. Still the biggest terrorists and bullies on the planet earth.

Typically you'd be right, but they're actually doing one at the final this time. No word yet on who is performing except that Chris Martin is involved in picking the acts.

You could have gone over to the "wholesome" TPUSA halftime show to watch Klanchella and a old white guy grabbing his crotch sing about how its mandatory to bang 12 year olds.
