we need to convince them that voting is a left wing conspiracy
Weirdly enough republican leadership is well on their way to doing that.
Only for brown people though

A true superbowl has to have an equal right wing AND left wing! It just doesn't work right if both aren't both there and participating the same amount.
Wake up sheeple and learn the truth they dont want you to know!
!superbowl@lemmy.world will open your eyes!
What a hoot
Here to ruffle a few feathers, aren't you? :D
Just a bit of shameless promotion! 😇
After scrolling politics for enough time, you're going to need a pick me up of positivity, and that's where c/superbowl has you covered!
So that’s who’s responsible for popcorn shells stuck between my teeth
I'd probably complain a lot too, if I was getting zero traction with Gen Z voters.
Besides, Republicans have no qualms about using celebrity to attract voters. They have My Pillow guy, and Ted Nugent.
Don't forget Kid Diddler Rock
Ye, but not sure he matters anymore.
Well I didn’t think I cared about the NFL anymore but I guess I’m rooting for whichever team to win that makes the nutters most uncomfortable…
One team has Taylor Swift's boyfriend on it and the other is from San Francisco. It's a Republican's worst nightmare, apparently
It sounds like the chiefs losing would be considered a huge win for ... Trump? I hope he's got a good passing game because he sure as fuck isn't running the ball.
Why wait for them to lose? Odds on the nutters storming the field with violence to “Stop the Endorsement”?
Low, but not impossible? NFL security is pretty intense, including building digital threat profiles for ticket holders for the big games, and Swift's security team are some incredibly kind and competent absolute psychos. While any attempt to organize a big "storm the field" thing would probably just get caught in the planning stages and you'd simply be denied entry to the venue, if you did get it planned undetected it'd be pretty easy to pull off. So long as you're not an active threat, you're just out on the field waving flags and not firing guns, they'll just evacuate the VIPs, call the cops and keep you there till you get bored.
The biggest concern at these events is that someone will get in with the goal of intentionally causing crowd crush incidents. Because of that, the focus is heavily on preempting and prevention and not so much on response. Its a neat field to get into if you're okay with never being comfortable in a public space again!
All that said, going for the players, or god forbid going after Tay herself, would turn into a bloodbath pretty damn quick.

One step ahead of you my friend! Now, to start on my career transition...
See people are all ready transitioning!
Checkmate libs
No, silly, the NFL is rigged.
25 years ago in the documentary "The X-Files" we learned all about how shadowy government agents conspired to make sure the Buffalo Bills never won a Super Bowl. The Truth is out there!
Wide right is just dog whistling...booo
That episode was so different that it is etched into my memory.
Right, because Taylor Swift would have otherwise endorsed Trump. So grateful Travis turned her around
It wouldn’t shock me to find out the NFL is setting the cards up to fall how they want, especially now that gambling is a legal part of it, but there is absolutely zero chance that Jerry Jones and the other NFL owners are doing it to get Biden reelected or anything else besides a shit load of money. Which, Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl will certainly help them do even more than they already were going to. It’s always so weird that they never see the simplest explanation that’s always right in front of them, money and therefore power
I'm absolutely sick of all the gambling ads, and while it isn't NFL, fucking Manfred has ruined the beauty of classic uniforms like the Cardinals and Yankees by slapping ads in them. I am sick of all these ads and money ruining all my favorite sports.
I stopped eatching the NFL after Kroneke absolutely fucked St. Louis and I think i am about to be completely done with college football with the way things are going there as well. I hate watching capitalism take down everything i love with it

Wow this is a hilarious unhinged theory. I LOVE IT.
Is it wrong for me to want this to happen?
Like if the team wins, that they pan to Taylor as she dons on a Biden T-shirt?
Let them foam at the mouth screaming they were right so that they focus on something stupid instead of trying to plan yet another insurrection.
Unfortunately they can multitask
THE SUPERBOWL IS A FALSE FLAG!!!
It's full contact, not flag football.
Maybe that's why the flag is false.
THE PRO BOWL IS A FALSE FLAG!!!11!!11!!one!
It suddenly makes sense why she ended up in nude ai suddenly and virulently. Trolls love to stir the pot.

Sure and Democrats eat babies at the pizza parlor.
Fucking insanity. We do not need to put up with this again.
Actual brain rot
I had to deal with this crap in real time in my fantasy football friend group, I just pointed out their confirmation biases and shut it down, but man were these dudes quick to jump on the conspiracy, they just could not accept that Lamar just made a dumb play.
My own conservative father has been bitching about the NFL being rigged all season, can't wait for him to pick up on the Taylor Swift stuff to add that to his "anti-woke" talking points.🤦♂️
Hilarious
I really don't want to have another year of Mahomes commercials, but I might endure it to see the pin heads explode. Please Taylor do a song at halftime. Get em good.
