Bad Bunny vs. Turning Point USA

We just experienced the 60th Super Bowl. It was a lot different from the first one, which I remember watching as a sports obsessed youngster. There were a whole lot more White players on the field 60 years ago. And no halftime show. Not even a White act popular at the time, like Andy Williams. No Kate Smith. No slightly chubby Elvis.

In America 2.0, our Super Bowls feature 80 percent Black players. At least. This year was a bit of a modern anomaly, as both starting quarterbacks were White. The jock sniffing “journalists” don’t like that one bit. The game this year was incredibly boring. No big plays. No “stars” on either team. And the halftime act has become so overhyped that it often draws more attention than the game itself. Starting with Michael Jackson’s appearance in 1993, the Super Bowl has paraded big names out at halftime each year. Never forget Janet Jackson’s infamous “nip slip” in 2004. Since the NFL hired Jay-Z to produce the halftime shows in 2020, the performers have been less “diverse” than the players on the field. No Whites need apply. It would be hard to top Kendrick Lamar’s 2025 act. I detailed that DEI monstrosity on Substack last year. See Crip Walking Into Super Idiocracy I don’t believe there was a single White backup dancer on the field. It was like watching an old Grambling-Alcorn State game.

But this year, the NFL and its esteemed producer Jay-Z vowed to come up with something even more offensive to White people. As the Black iconoclast Jason Whitlock says, Black people have been conditioned to like whatever makes White people upset. And especially what Donald Trump doesn’t like. So they found a Latino rapper named Bad Bunny. I’m no expert on gangsta culture, but Bad Bunny is a really nonthreatening, even wimpy name. It doesn’t seem to fit into an industry that promotes its “stars” as mad, bad, and dangerous to know,” as Lord Byron was described centuries ago. But then again, our own non-Latino rappers feature some pretty ridiculous names as well. Snoop Doggy Dogg? Lil’ Romeo? Lil’ Kim? Doesn’t the “Lil’” kind of indicate a physically unimposing figure? And why pick one of the most harmless creatures imaginable for a rugged rap persona? Bunnies? Just how “bad” can a bunny be? You might as well call yourself Bad Butterfly.

But Bad Bunny takes things a step further. He often performs in drag. Kind of a Bad Bunnyette, I guess. Is there anything more intimidating than the prospect of a transgender bunny? But the most controversial aspect of Mr./Ms./They/Them Bunny’s performance was the fact it was entirely in Spanish. The network didn’t even provide subtitles, so that interested ‘Murricans could follow along with the fascinating “art” on display. Well, to be fair, Bad Bunny did utter the words, “God bless America” in English, but then went on to recite the names of Central and South American countries. Get it? They’re American, too, you beer swilling bigots! Bad Bunny hails from Puerto Rico, which is part of America! Well, not exactly the voting part, since Puerto Rico is an American territory, not a state. Have they restored the power back in Puerto Rico yet, by the way? Most Americans don’t seek to celebrate Puerto Rican culture. Bad Bunny should ask why illegals can vote, but not Puerto Ricans.

I only watched a few highlights of Bad Bunny’s performance. Now, he wasn’t really any less talented than our own proud domestic rappers like last year’s Kendrick Lamar, or Mr. Snoop Dogg himself. But just like English- well Ebonics- speaking rappers, he has no musical talent, either. He can’t really sing. I don’t think he plays an instrument. From what little I saw, he doesn’t really dance well, either. He just shouted out words in Spanish, grabbed his crotch sporadically, but did thankfully refrain from donning a dress. I just didn’t see the attraction there. Every outlet in our “competitive” state controlled media sang Bad Bunny’s praises. They called it “joyful,” “historic,” and claimed that he “stole the show.” At one point, two men simulated sex with each other. Bad Bunny included an anti-ICE tirade in his act. Now, I have to take the word of those who claim this, since it was all in Spanish, and I don’t remember much of my four years of high school Spanish, only two of which I passed.

With Trump’s militarization of ICE, and their curious concentration on protesters in Minnesota, who seem to all be U.S. citizens, Bad Bunny might have had a point. But his criticism, like all “Woke” criticism on the subject, was focused on confronting those who are here illegally. The Left doesn’t want precious Brown people deported, even if they have committed violent crimes. Prior to his installation as Super Bowl halftime “star,” Bad Bunny warned Americans that they had “better learn Spanish.” Just don’t tell some humble and lovable Brown person that they better learn English. That would be a hate crime. So, conservatives claim that Bad Bunny drew an audience only of nonwhites, and self-hating White women who have no interest in the Super Bowl. Liberals claimed it was a smashing success, although the mainstream media reluctantly noted that it “fell just short” of setting a ratings record. You can make words mean what you want. My “I Protest” audience is “just short” of Joe Rogan’s.
