Spot-on.
Why so much MAGA backlash against Bad Bunny? Because so much of MAGA’s project is to erase the many cultures within the U.S. that are not white, Christian, conservative, non-immigrant, and straight. And it’s particularly bothering them because football is seen as a conservative space

Random Twitter users: Look at all the brown people! This is an argument for closed borders and more deportations!

Call it the Benito Bowl. Grammy-winning mega-star Bad Bunny brought the island of Puerto Rico to the Super Bowl halftime stage, bringing palm trees, tropical foliage and dancing shrubs to the field, as well as a makeshift market.

Exactly.
Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

That was hands down the best halftime show ever. It was filled with so many references to Puerto Rican culture and history. The sugarcane fields, the casita, the streets of NYC, and the power lines. All of it resonated so much. Boricua por siempre.

The #SuperBowl #halftimeshow just reminded us that the "culture war" is a losing battle for the right. #BadBunny didn't just perform; he centered Puerto Rican pride and Caribbean excellence on the world’s biggest stage. This is what the future of America actually looks like.

You know Stephen Miller is losing his fucking mind right now. 🤣

how many MAGA knuckle-draggers have fainted because they can't handle Spanish-language lyrics?

The billboard behind Bad Bunny during this halftime performance reads: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love." #SuperBowl

Bad Bunny: God bless America, *all* the Americas.

Damn that is going to make MAGA maaaaaaaddddddd.

That entire Halftime special was a celebration of community, love, music, diversity and Puerto Rico and very deliberate middle finger to colonization and white supremacy.

Massie on Howard Lutnick: "He should just resign. Three people in Great Britain resigned for less than what we've seen Howard Lutnick lie about. He clearly went to the island, if we believe what's in these files. He was in business with Jeffrey Epstein."

Excellent piece. Read 👇🏼
Trump is badly losing the war over ICE, not just on the streets, but also in the culture. As Bad Bunny shows, this has become a culture war unto itself. Trump-MAGA's initial hubris has been utterly deflated.

I've got fresh data illustrating the point. 1/

Trump Rages at Bad Bunny—and Accidentally Exposes a Big MAGA Weakness
MAGA’s hatred of the Super Bowl halftime performer reflects a hubris about what parts of the culture are “theirs.” But those assumptions are proving more wrong every day.
