re: This halftime show was signed before the country went non-woke

Kendrick Lamar is woke. Dafuq are you talking about? Maybe not as woke as he could be, but with regard to race and race relations... and his perception of them? Definitely woke.

The NFL ain't changing

Neither am I!
I've watched NFL since the 60s. Haven't watched the last two Supebowels.
Bowel is the correct term.
If I live to be 100, I don't expect to watch another.

According to a comment I read it was an American Flag built off the back of blacks.

Women and black people aren't going to cease to exist. They hold a significant amount of buying power and brands are going to continue to target them whether you call it DEI or not.

Married women do as the main shoppers of couples, Black populations are just known to refuse to invest.

In 2022, the median wealth of an Asian household was $536,000.
In 2022, the median wealth of a White household was $285,000.
In 2022, the median wealth of a Hispanic household was $61,600.
In 2022, the median wealth of a Black household was $44,900.

Have you ever wondered why black wealth is so much lower than white wealth?

It's the same reason why they buy tons of Nike.
They spend what they make, and then often more.
They are preyed upon by shitty white liberals who make these commercials.

How are facts racist?

I'll never understand you people.

In other threads, there are leftists flat out saying if you didn't like the halftime show or the music, that makes you racist as well.

I grew up on Motown. That's music. The replays of what I saw last night....not music.

Yet if I say The Four Tops are better than Kendrick Lamar, groomers like the one you replied to will call me a racist.

It's racist because it isn't a fact. Black and white people have equal rates of non-retirement investment accounts

quote:

I'll ignore the obvious racism here, and just say that you agree that they have spending power.

Only racism is by you and the advertising firms that target based on statistics.

I have not, because I know that most people's wealth is in the value of their home, and black people have lower rates of homeownership. And no, buying a $300 pair off Nike shoes is not the reason they don't own homes.

---

Yes in every way it does relate, impulse buying prevents the acquisition of a down payment.

On a starter home, Down-payments were in the $5k range across much of the country pre-2020.

It doesn't take a lot of splurge purchasing (I know people with a few thousand plus in shoes, they think it's an investment, but they don't own a house) to lose the ability to get $5k in cash.

If you can't see that you are a fool.

quote:

The irony is those shitty liberals at Nike that preyed upon them have made a lot of black athletes very wealthy.

---

No they haven't
This is what's broken with your mindset. They money doesn't come from nowhere, it doesn't come from Nike, it comes from the buyers.

They take millions of Black people purchasing hundreds in sneakers each, and they then give a percentage of that to a few Black athletes.
That was the Jordan contract.
Look again at the advertising.

quote:

---

45% of Nike customers identify as Black or Hispanic, while 46% identify as white.

---

The Percent that goes to these Athletes is small compared to what goes to Nike shareholders.

Everything I said is true. Nike and other Liberal advertisers target your "black/brown" people because their wealth is more removable than your white/asian populations.

The fact that you don't like it means you should take offense with Nike, not on me calling it out.

Yeah the doublethink on this kind of stuff is always astounding. On one hand we're supposed to believe there's all these disadvantages and socioeconomic factors holding back minority populations but then if you point out anything that's less than flattering about these same communities, you're a racist and there's nothing actually wrong with them at all

Exactly, no wonder the culture is broke, these Progressives think black folks just cant do any better and we should accomodate.

They deserve what we deserve, opportunity. But its on them to make the right choices.
