The announcement comes the same day a White House official told NBC News that President Donald Trump would be attending the game.

Because they want to continue racism? I mean, how did it get there in the first place. “Oh wait… Nevermind. We weren’t serious.”
Imagine a world where every single POC quit on the spot. Goddamn, that would be beautiful.
Sadly it only happens on The Boondocks when the players went on strike to protest racial injustice and it forced political change. In reality the athletes liked money too much to support Kapernick or individually support BLM.
NBA too
Because they’re gonna replace it with “End Fascism”, right?

I feel like this is a great time to point out just how many of both teams playing in the Super Bowl are black (I didn’t count them, but just take a look at their roster).
Interested to see how things play out. I’m hoping for protests on both teams when the game starts, but I’m worried what I’ll get is a perfect example of why money is the root of all evil.
Call me a pessimist, call me a realist, idgaf. There’s no way they aren’t playing. Even though they all make more money than we would ever need in our lives in one year, they’ll still bend the knee and lick boots for one more million.
Are they taking it off the helmets too, did we solve racism already?
Now racism won’t end at the end zones!
My consolation is that these motherfuckers are not ready for how hard the pendulum will swing back.
It will be a proper wrecking ball.
Republicans won control of all 3 branches of government in 2004. In 2008, Obama swept into office with a filibuster-proof majority in senate and democratic house majority. It only lasted a few months but it was so wonderful to see Republicans tear into Bush and pretend they always hated him.
I would be amazed if there is anything left to demolish once they’re finished.
I agree, what’s that timeline look like for you though? 4 years? 8 years? The “wait” is gonna fuckin’ suck.
Crossing my fingers for the first trans president, though.
2 years. Think positively, act positively, make it happen.
2/3 control of the House and a clear majority in the Senate. Not enough to make an impeachment stick, but more than enough to stop the madness.
2026 could be a great year for the Dems in the Senate. The Republicans currently hold 22 of the 33 seats up for election. Depending on how much Trump fucks the economy, it’s mathematically possible for the Dems to hold 67 Senate seats in 2027.
That’s enough to simultaneously impeach and remove Trump and Vance and elevate a Democratic Speaker of the House to the Presidency.
The odds of it happening are almost zero. They won’t win all 33 elections - but they could conceivably get to 60 seats - enough to block GOP fillibusters. They managed it in 2008, and that’s the same Senate cycle up for election in 2026.
Assuming fair elections even happen. I’m guessing the FEC is on the list to get DOGEd, at which point all bets are off.
Frankly I couldn’t tell you, but whatever the timeline is, I expect it will be much faster than before, as everything is.
There are a few very young politicians and new media commentators that know what’s up, and I think we should rally around them.
In the meantime, boycott as best as possible, build, develop and protect your community and funk up the authoritarian machinery at every turn possible.
The revolution will be federated.
“The revolution will be federated” fuck yeah
Which young politicians and new media commentators would you point to? I need new people to follow.
“Funk up the authoritarian machinery at every turn possible.”
I’ll bring the drums 😎
Jokes aside, that sentence is something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. “How can I cause the most disruption with the least harm?” lmfao No good answers yet, but I’ll keep pondering 🤔🫡
“How can I cause the most disruption with the least harm?”
If you haven’t voted in the past, start immediately.
First participate in the existing process fully.
You seriously think that I’m to the point of asking those questions, but I haven’t considered voting? lmfao
Jesus fucking Christ, I have voted in every single election I’ve had the opportunity to. Miss me with that dEmOcRaCy bullshit.
Not just you, everyone reading.
Damn Autocorrect 😆
Should say “gunk”
There are very few young politicians, we need more.
No it wont. Normal people are tired of being preached to when they are at a football game of all places. Ironically sports were at the vanguard of improving race relations in the United States. There’s something to be said for showing rather than telling.
They’ll replace it with “End DEI”.
Most MAGA people I have been forced to listen to, say there is only racism against whites. “Racism can only be a supremacist view” (not simply I just hate/suspect members of a race because…) and so accusing America of being racist “can only be an anti-white racist view”.
That NFL removes this, may, just may in the DEI advocate view, encourage whites to adopt supremacism instead of being angry that this “racism against whites” is the new NFL approved policy.
Kiss the ring, lick the boot. These giant, greedy corporations are fucking pathetic…
EDIT: “Bend the knee” has different connotations, as pointed out by some MFs…
Lick the boot.
Ooo, I like this one, edited.

Bend the knee
are you sure?
Good call.
MF at least put it as a

They can’t make up their minds, on most things.
Grabbing as much

Fair…
Can’t be offending the Racist of the United States of America.
Imagine that you managed to scrounge up the several thousand dollars needed to attend the super bowl. You and your fat wife pile into your lifted f250 and manage to park, get your BudLight™® and squeeze into your double wide seats. But, hark, you spy as Mahomes throws another uncontested touchdown: the NFL’s anti racist messaging has been removed from the end zone! How will you be able to dissuade your own white guilt as the black receiver shucks and jives in the end zone after making the catch for over one million dollars a year. A tear runs down your cheek, knowing that you should never have voted for Trump…
Just stick an S in front, will give the same message and will be much cheaper!
Or a T
