The NFL’s decision to feature Latin artist Bad Bunny at halftime has already sparked controversy in some conservative circles, with critics arguing that his predominantly Spanish-language music and stances on issues such as immigration make him an unconventional pick for the game’s massive audience.
His 2025 song “Nuevayol” features an imitated Trump voice saying, “I want to apologize to the immigrants in America. . . . This country is nothing without the immigrants. This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, Cubans.”
Green Day, which formed in the East Bay Area in the 1980s, is set to perform during the game’s opening ceremony. Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has long denounced the administration and has altered the lyrics of the band’s 2004 Grammy-nominated song “American Idiot” during live performances, changing the line “I’m not a part of a redneck agenda” to “I’m not a part of a MAGA agenda.”
In July, Armstrong led a Download Festival crowd in a chant calling Trump a “fat bastard.”
He doesn’t even listen to music. He just doesn’t like to be booed.
Sure hope there isnt a false flag attack.
Good Riddance
Good news out of the USA. Keep it up guys!
And you’ll get booed in live TV?
Maybe worse?
This is the real reason.
Yup. He’s likely not to get lots of adulation from conservatives that clap like seals whenever he mumbles out stupid shit like happens at his stupid road shows.
There’s a reason he doesn’t do them anymore. Either he’s too sick, or there’s just not enough interest, even from his most bigly followers.
He would get booed but I’m pretttttty sure the network would find a way not to air it
🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅
Def worse lol
I’m not part of your maga agenda!
Now everybody, do the propaganda!
Billie joe Armstrong should run for President during this year’s Halftime Show
Good, we don’t want him in the Bay anyway
Good
We already know he’s anti-America. I can’t wait to take a shit on his grave. That will be a great day.
Hope his ghoulish family shoves him under a golf course and forgets about him, like he did with Ivana.
They’ll make his a tourist attraction
$2 per piss. $10 for a dookie
I’ll prepay $100
It might even be worth that big glass of milk, followed up by some ice cream for that kind of occasion.
I’m still holding out for the gas station option
We really need to dig her up and give her a proper grave eventually.
Trump throwing a tantrum about the Super Bowl is the least of my concerns right now.
He doesn’t want to be present when Green Day has the crowd chanting Fuck Donald Trump, Fuck ICE, and Fuck Government?
It’s also in Green Day’s home town (a few small cities away) the Bay Area. He will get no love here.
Green Day has been protesting presidents since their band formed
This sounds like a win.
Even with how mad MAGA supposedly is, I betcha $10 this will be the most popular Super Bowl of the decade. I think the internet and news media vastly overestimate MAGA’s influence on the daily lives of every American. I live in a big red county in a rural area and lemme tell ya, basically nobody gives a shit about 70% of what the internet and the news says they do. I’m not saying they are saints, I’m just saying that when you see “MAGA angry at [blank]” most of the time it’s literally just, like, a Reddit post, a few tweets, or some right wing podcaster.

I’m not saying it’s right but it seems to be the only logical explanation for everything.
How else do you look at what’s going on and explain that 49% of Americans voted for this?
That’s a genuine question. I’m not being facetious.
49% of Americans didn’t vote for this. 49% of those that voted in 2024 technically voted for this whether they were aware or not. Only about 62% of the population voted in 2024 so including those that voted third party, realistically only about 20% - 30% voted for this. And that doesn’t include those that voted based on things like affordability without realizing the choice they were actually making. Add those that regret their vote and you have a very small percentage of people that actually voted for this specific outcome. Sure you can look at polls but those only account for people that were interested in participating in polls, which MAGA loves to be vocal about their opinion.
In my opinion, they are trying to make us feel isolated and alone when in fact we are literally surrounded by people that are on your side. They’ll say “you voted for this” in the same way an abuser says “you did this to yourself.”
Edit: Spelling
I see. I had that figure incorrect then. I apologise.
I hope you are right in the fact that most people see what ICE are doing as truly awful. I struggle to see how you could look at it and not think that.
If 30 odd percent support what is going on then by all accounts Trump should lose drastically in the mid-terms.
Whether he does or he doesn’t will be very interesting, to say the least.
