I've seen a lot of press and controversy surrounding the imagery she used during her Super Bowl 50 halftime show. Frankly, I don't see what the big deal is all about. Stupidity if you ask me. So I ignore it and move on with life.
Then I come across a photo with her and her husband Jay-Z and he's wearing a 5% Nation of Gods and Earths medallion and I see a Facebook discussion and the white people are absolutely rabid over it. So I read it with amusement, but don't participate and move on with life.
Then I come across this 3min video that I think explains brilliantly what the fuss is all about. What do you think?

"brilliantly"?
you have a really low bar for meeting the requirement for "brilliant"
I couldn't get beyond the first BS out of that guy's mouth (it was setup as a black vs white from the very beginning)
What a load of crap.
-
I really don't have an opinion of it. It is irrelevant to me.

More stupid black vs white nonsense Jaybird. You're becoming a sad parody of yourself. Time to move on to something that actually matters.

Go ahead and bury your head in the sand but many people are talking about it. Apparently you didn't read my OP and just want to be Angry White Man.

I'm not listening to that video while at work. However, I couldn't understand the words in her song, and only learned about the anti-cop and pro Black Panther message after the fact. Good thing I was doing something else during the halftime show.
I'm sick and tired at how the NFL has feminized and politicized and pussified the
Super Bowl, and the NFL in general. Add to that the thuggery and self-aggrandizement by the players, and I'm really close to having The NHL as the only pro sport worthy of watching.
I love football, and played it from 5th grade through college, but the NFL is totally turning me off.

That's exactly how I feel. They just want to grow market share.

If only there was a word that could be used to describe someone who makes all their decisions and evaluations of others based on the color of their skin......
Hmmm, what would that person be......
:o
Mr Pot, meet Mr Kettle.
So very, very sad.

As for Beyonce's piece of the halftime show, I couldn't understand a fucking thing she said and am honestly just very tired of her big no talent ass being shaken on my TV at Super Bowl time.
Seriously, who mixes Coldplay, Bruno Mars and Beyonce? Come on NFL, you took it away from MTV presumably to make it better....try fucking harder.
Because I couldn't understand a fucking thing she said, I too did not realize it was such a blatant anti-cop/racist-lives-matter piece of excrement, had I been able to understand a fucking thing she said, I would have been even more upset about her big no talent ass being shaken on my TV at Super Bowl time.
She really is just a classless trashy wanna be stripper who can't sing or rhyme apparently, who used to be attractive enough to get herself a solo gig after the equally miserable Destiny's Child - but who is not in any shape to be dressing and grinding the way she does now - total turn-off.
If I never see her shaking her big no talent ass on my TV at Super Bowl time again, and am never forced to not understand a fucking thing she says again, it will be too soon.

PS, I really don't like her and I really do think she has zero talent.

"Martin Luther King"? Oh, no, wait. He said something about "content of character" or something like that. My mistake.
-
Can't say the half-time show did much for me at all.. Didn't really pay attention all that much. Totally missed any "social message" that might have been there.

I told my Fillipina coworker about you guys and she said, "No wonder...it's like going to a KKK rally and expecting them to roll out the red carpet." I tried to defend you guys but she shut me down cold. I had nothing else to say.
Maybe she is right.???...

The victim card is worn out, used up, and pretty much useless anymore, because so many people play it over nad over again, to avoid serious examination of their behavior, and the results of their work.

When I used to have Blackhawks season tickets, we would leave via a particular stairwell, and they had a GIANT picture of her and her fat ass performing at the United Center. I asked my wife "who the hell is that?"

Let me guess. You didn't tell her that we were a bunch of pilots, right? Please, tell us how you described us to her.

Your coworker compared us to the KKK?
I'm thinking that you grossly misrepresented who we are. (while this isn't POA, I'm not going to specifically tell you what I really think of your coworker)

So your 'Fillipina coworker' ;) equates comments on a performers inability to enunciate in an understandable way, her classless tribute to a non-fact-based racist cause and a former domestic terror organization, and the fact that she has a large ass and seems to always be shaking it with a 'fierce' look on her face, makes US like the KKK. Riiiiiiighht.
It would be laughable were it not so predictable and so baseless - these endless unsupportable and insulting cries of racism everywhere only serve to continue to erode the actual value and meaning of the word for the ever shrinking cases of actual racism while making a mockery of the actual suffering of actual victims of actual racism.
There is exactly one racist on this board, one person obsessed with race above all else, one person constantly stirring the pot and accusing people of terrible behavior while simultaneously actually engaging in the behavior he states he loathes.

Sadly birds of a feather flock together. Are all of your friends and acquaintances victims?

more likely he simply lied to his coworker.

The irony is she got a police escort to the stadium.

I thought it sucked.

I'm willing to bet we can make one of those word jumbles that show who uses a word more often; and I'm willing to bet that mine will be so tiny that I may not be on the map. You type a lot but you come out of left field; all just to say
YEAH THAT

I told her that we are a pilot web board that came from another that got shut down and we contend on race, religion and politics. I thought it was funny at the time and I wonder how she came to that conclusion. Perhaps she is highly perceptive???

I exactly wouldn't call two small business owners victims. But you keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better.
Ohhhh....I get it now. What you're saying is that we're Uppity. I gotta get working on that white-rage Universal Translator.

Perhaps you are highly biased, racist, and delusional?

Only a narcissist uses big words to say "you're wrong" for not agreeing with everything I say.

I walked the dog in the park during halftime. He pooped. Twice. Big piles.[1] It was entertaining. When I got back inside the game was starting again and I was told I had missed some kind of show. BFD.
[1] Yes, said piles of poop were double bagged, tied off, and dropped in an approved waste receptacle.

Now you're just being an idiot. Jaybird, I keep thinking you're better than this, but maybe I'm wrong. You insult me/us by suggesting your co-worker (who has only experienced this group through the eyes of her bigoted co-worker) is correct in her assessment of this group being the equivalent of a KKK rally, and then whine when you're called out on that stupidity and your never-ending need to play the victim card.
Your hate-filled bigotry is sad and is beyond getting old. It's remarkable that in 2016 in the United States we continue to have people clinging to tribal allegences formed by skin color. The irony is those "bitter clingers" are the same ones that demand a change in behavior of everyone except themselves. Carry on Mr Bitter Clinger!

Speaking of the Klan; it was in the mid-90's when an acquaintance of mine in Alabama extended me an offer to join. He spoke eloquently of their efforts to promote the virtues the white race and to look out for one another. After listening to his persuasive description I politely declined the offer. Oddly enough, you'd never know he was a Klan member by having a discussion and he and I conducted business together for years prior to the offer being extended.

No evidence of it.

Joe- Where you err is that you confuse love of self with hate for others. You also confuse proper social diagnosis of present time, with rose-colored I dream of Jeanie. You also confuse the idea of advocating for others as a desire to play or be a victim. Otherwise, I'd say you're about right. As you were.

Perceptive?
Perhaps "Prejudiced".

So, in effect, you did see the halftime show.
