Since this article ran in December, Several Super Bowl Advertisers Bowed Out over Fear of Offending Viewers.. But they were hell-bent on offending us but not them on December 4. What caused the change?

As I noted in this thread, the PRIMARY thing that could have caused this change was the events of Jan 6.

Forget that it's highly likely that our side did NOT stage the "insurrection" or cause the destruction of property and go rioting. While there were hundreds of thousands of Deplorables in DC to protest peacefully, we've been tagged as the violent ones.

But something funny happened with this slander...wokey advertisers are running away from their message, if not outright suppressing it during the SB. They're blaming the pandemic, economy, blah blah blah.

Yeah. Right. Those thing were problems on Dec 4.

In reality, it seems that they're a little...well...scared....

“In fact, many consumers want brands to stand up.”

I think the real kicker is that they are going into a political area that is supposed to support their product by 13.4% of the US population, the African American amount. By saying that they are committing financial suicide and they know it as any of them that go woke for racism are going to get boycotted. And right now, they need every cent than can garnish. They’d be better suited to drop their sponsorship of the event and don’t waste their money, time, and reputation.

It’s an outright lie, just like political polls, just like the MSM evening news, just like the NY Slimes - they lie to shape culture and opinion.

Was wondering the same thing.

My definition of White Privige.

"The ability to accept the trials and tribulations of life without blaming them on someone else, includng your own poor decisions."

But this February, sports marketing experts predict CBS Sports’ telecast of Super Bowl LV will feature more serious advertising messages that tackle topics like racial justice, white privilege, and the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.

Which is EXACTLY the reason they are losing viewership.

People want to be entertained, take a break from reality, not be preached at or have the latest party propaganda shoved down their throats.

“Where in the world did they get that number from?”

The Ministry of Propaganda. But since the joy of the game was destroyed by the Rats, costing them countless fans, the remaining ones probably DO want to see social justice brainwashing infomercials.

I think it is VERY telling, that their zeal to cram their anti-humanity, pro-groupthink agenda down our throats evaporated after Jan 6. It is even more telling that they're lying about the reason and saying they don't want to offend anyone...in reality, they don't want to offend US.

It's like when a rumor goes around school that the nerd beat up the bully. Kids come to fear the nerd and ignore the bully, even though it never happened.

If the left is so in fear of offending us, it should be an encouragement to us.

It reveals that they know we have more power than we even probably think we have ourselves.

They need to be fearing us.

You know where this is going, don’t you?
The BLM Channel,
The Donkey News Channel ( formerly CNN),
The ANTIFA Network,
The FED(eral) Broadcasting Station - latest live action broadcasts from the FBI, CIA, DEA, DHS, IRS, etc.,
The SPLC Justice Channel,
The Authorized Sports Network,
and of course the WOKE News Network - All Approved News, All the Time.

Do they mean talking about systematic racism in society and especially by government against caucasians?

KC, or according to Tom Brennaman the “fag capital of the world”. I always liked Brennaman but I’m sure he went full PC during the MLB/BLM BS. I assume the guy is now completely unemployable. What’s the deal with all the references to “KC faggots”?
