Also, companies/corporations wouldn't even have to worry about this if they just made commercials for their products, instead of making commercials telling us how to think and feel.
For example, if you sell razors/shavers, make your commercial about shaving. Don't make it about men pretending to be women...
I realized I don’t want to be a fan. I stopped watching years ago and haven’t had cable in over 20 years.
Further the college sports have become farm teams for the pros. Entertainers are taking the spots of students. They should just get rid of college football and pay them a fair wage for being in the minors. They get hurt they are done for life.
You can still have fun without sitting in the stands. Hiking, marksmanship, home improvement, board games. I host board games and RPGs often now.
Their scholarship is their “payment.” If they get hurt and can’t continue playing ever again, I believe the remainder of the time in college should be taken care of, but that is it. Fuck them. They get a basically free ride through life, being housed, fed, transported, educated (if they choose to take advantage of it), and fucking pampered. That is their payment. That is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of their time in college.

As far as college, they get plenty of benefits. Enough to make it worth their while, even with the risk. I believe the strategy should be to promote and keep college sports separated from professional sports.
Also, companies/corporations wouldn't even have to worry about this if they just made commercials for their products, instead of making commercials telling us how to think and feel.
Woah! Actually make commercials that are about the product or service? You may have really hit on something revolutionary. A real eureka moment!
It's bigger than just politics.I am in the business of selling stuff.In the 20 years I've been in the game the corporations I've worked for have concentrated on everything but getting a great product into stores at a great price.Until they are on the brink of bankruptcy - then they strip it down to basics.
Audiobooks seems like one of the easiest fields to break into. How many of these “good boys, turning their lives around” were “rappers” or “aspiring rappers.” They buy equipment, build a plywood box, soundproof it and boom, they are a rapper. Why couldn’t you do them same? Find an unemployed sound engineer, find a few people that can read and speak well, build your studio and record. Start your own “audible.” Share profits.
If the authors were getting paid, it wouldn’t be unfair to them. It would be unfair to the rest of the audiobook people though. The readers, the techs that make sure all the equipment is working properly, etc...they wouldn’t be getting paid.
Have you looked at your local library? Most now partner with bigger organizations to distribute all sorts of electronic books (both audio and e-books).
It is the best time of the year to buy a new TV since sales always go up before the Superbowl and the big box companies still have to compete with each other for the time being. Though that may change if fewer and fewer people actually watch the game. Also it will change if we are reduced to one or two big box stores like Wal-Mart and Target.
Got rid of it 4 years ago. Don’t miss it at all. Walked by a house with a big screen the other day. Seen TV show playing. I shit you not: the character’s in the show all had masks on their faces.
Thanks. No joke, I remember visiting this website before I joined and cracking up after seeing your username. It's like the perfect username for a Trump related website.
I use my TV as a computer monitor. Don't need a new one. Most new TVs are surveillance equipment now, anyway. If it's a "smart" tv, or has Alexa on it, fuck that noise.
I jumped off the "bigger, better" train a while ago. There's no movies or shows worth spending the money for 4K or whatever the new "tv hotness" is. Or spending money to buy streaming apps from companies that hate me because of who I voted for.
There are still some big names buying their traditional time, granted. M&M’s, TurboTax, Anheuser-Busch, Toyota, Pringles, and Mountain Dew have already ponied up $5.5 million per spot.
Still some need to learn... please teach them, somehow.
I have never “watched” a Super Bowl. I have been present when a group of friends watched it, but I didn’t pay attention to it. And I always actively cheered for both teams to lose, regardless of what teams were playing. I was there for the comradery. I was there for the food.
I used to watch boxing, traditional martial arts and mma. I watched strongman competitions and stihl timber sports. Mainstream sports have long been disdained in my house.
I love football and I'm a long suffering Browns fan but I haven't watched pro football since they sold us out to the Marxists and Gender Deniers two years ago. Having said that, this is a yuge win for normal people.
There's still a whole world behind the Super Bowl ad thing - it's now the traditional time advertisers and their ad agencies try to win awards, it's more of an Oscars for advertising while a football game is played. They pay 5 million for the ad space and millions more for the ad itself so they can have a shiny trophy on the CEO's shelf, and the ad agencies can boost their fees when they win.
Even with lowered viewership, it's still one of the biggest captive audiences for Big Ad all year.
I can't understand why people like sportsball. I never could, but now it's even MORE obnoxious than ever. How is it fun to watch a bunch of retarded ball-chuckers prance around the field in matching outfits, grabbing each other's heavily padded bodies, then celebrating that they moved an oblong air sac into a rectangular shape on the field like they're the fucking second coming of Christ? You couldn't PAY ME to enjoy that shit.
I stand by what I said. They don't want to offend the blm and antifa crowds, but you are right in that they are being very considerate in not wanting to offend us either. But I STILL think they don't give a hoot about offending us.
This is so wrong. They are doing it now because political division isn’t good when dems are in power onlyy try when trump was. Don’t buy their bullshit. I turned off sports forever. My kids won’t watch and their kids won’t watch. We won’t spend a dime. Problem is tomorrow manybretards willing to watch still.
Conservatives have Fox News destroying levels of power. Companies see that even if they won't speak of it. Coca Cola, Ford, etc see that and don't want the headache.
We need to continue being that headache. We actually need to ramp up to full-on migraine. Cancel Hollywood next. Anything involving discretionary income can and should be the target of coordinated boycotts. C.R.E.A.M.
We are the majority and if we all joined together and stopped giving money to all these corporations that are trying to ruin our lives it would make a difference.
This is more then a headache. This is company altering, laying off 25 years worth of company growth. We are a force in the economic realm. BLM and Antifa are the headaches. People with little market power but they squawk the loudest. Ask Goya beans how one of their (the lefts) boycotts worked.
Now as Nike, Twitter, Facebook, Gillette, DC comics, Star Wars, etc how one of our boycotts hit their bottom line.
In the span of a few months, Fox News went from being the king of cable news to falling behind CNN and MSNBC. Advertisers have definitely noticed that, and have realized that maybe it's not a good idea to antagonize the 75 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump.
Wrong. They shit on America just to make people think we're all behind BLM terrorists to push people to the left. Now that Biden is in office they want "unity". Fuck them.
I think it is more a 'why advertise' attitude. Advertising should grow your business, and in this climate that is impossible. If you are Coke do you need to advertise (any more than a sale price).
They aren't pulling ads because they fear they'll offend us. They know it's gonna be the least watched super bowl in the last 20 years, so don't waste the money.
That, and they already stole the government. So they don't need to keep the pandering and brainwashing up.
OP is a fool for thinking that it's because they don't want to lose viewership. The boomers and sportsball fans are too weak to give up their fun.
A land slide? You mean a razor thin margin after admitting to cheating and then cheating. What that makes you is a loser and shit human being for celebrating that and thinking it's a win. It's so sickening how proud some of you are over your new third world puppet dictator. And the think is you all know it or you wouldn't have had to cheat and then be so proud of that cheating.
Edit: OK I misunderstood the comment but this is why we need to use the /s tag. Thought the guy was lefty saying he'd won.
Well when I turn on the TV, every advertiser seems to think their audience is female and brown skinned so I hope they have fun with that. I'm told I don't understand black people so I guess don't expect me to understand or buy the products you market to them exclusively now.
Oh Rocket Mortgage. Oh, I guess that's for black women and since black people commit most of the crime in this country then I guess it's not for me. Their marketing is focused on criminals and people I am told have no money because racism. lol that's how that all works with me and I find better companies to spend money with.
They don’t care about that. They know people will continue to buy their products blindly anyway. They just know that the cost is not worth it because we will not be watching. The Super Bowl ads have become the most expensive 30 seconds on air. It’s just not worth it with viewership down so far.
Antifas and BLM are useful idiots, just like black people are used by the DNC and media to bow for their masters and stay in the democrat plantation. They are no longer needed so they will be put in their places now.
But we are the ones who spend money unlike those other crowds so it will do them well to fear us instead. We may not burn your shit down but there will be nothing to burn down in the first place without us. If they haven't already figured that out they will soon and this article implies that some have. Still traitors until it suits them I figure.
Ya because those actually fight for our causes unlike us. Flame them if you want but they actually stand for their ideals no matter how fucked up they are with actions.
They're not getting their covid relief checks. Antifa & BLM do work. It's full of teachers. They even have people at CDC. Stop blaming the poor. It's people with power in institutions leading these riots. They even have Democrat politicians' kids joining: DeBlasio', Omar's, Ellison's, Tim Kaine's etc
How are all these companies so impotent that they can't just make a commercial where they just show the product being great without any political shit at all.
Have a white couple hanging out with a black couple drinking a coke saying "Man, coke sure is good!"
Or even in the 90s when Coke and Pepsi just had stars doing a song and dance about how great their soft drink was. These marketing people just no imagination anymore.
Well back then it was conservatives who were complaining about everything. Music and pop culture were constantly under attack by them. Now its the left who are burning books, banning free speech, demanding compliance, etc.
Some of the criticisms were pedantic, but they were witnessing the beginning of complete societal moral degradation. Unfortunately they spent too much time bitching about TV shows and not enough thwarting Marxist infiltration of academia.
This is incorrect. They have ALWAYS complained about "moral degradation" (who's morals?) and when it finally came no one was listening because they cried wolf to many times. Guess what, citing "Jesus" as the reason why you can't do something will never work because most people can tell it's just a bullshit excuse. On the other hand, if they had been like "Hey, you shouldn't do X even though it feels good because it can negatively affect you emotionally and psychologically" then more people would listen.
Remember that dove chocolate magazine ad that was two altar boys kissing, a black one and a white one. That was the trifecta of purposefully inciting ad work
The problem is that the current crop of ad makers all went to Marxist film schools. They don’t know how to make anything without pushing Globohomo race-mixing and transsexuals.
I wonder why that generation doesn't at some point wake up and say, hey, ya know life has only gotten worse for me year after year since the year 2000. I wonder if it's us? Nothing they have tried has had any positive impact on people or the planet. Smart people would figure that out and change tactics.
Don't you know that when things go wrong, it's society screwing them with its internalized oppression?
We're watching the crowd pick Barabbus over Jesus in real time. Jesus says "fix yourself" and he's murdered like a criminal. Barabbus says "fix the system with violence", and he's saved from execution. The powers that be, Pilate, just don't want to be murdered by the crowd.
They're religious zealots. They believe all injustices in the world are caused by people not following their political ideology. The worse their lives are, the more proof it is that they need to bring all others into submission so they can institute their enlightened policies and bring the world to a utopian state.
Self reflection is a trait learn through discipline provided, usually while young. An orderly, disciplined life as a child provides the means of self discipline as a teen/young adult. The self reflection usually starts around that time, if it starts at all. That’s why the left went after the education system. They start teaching them at a younger and younger age that instant gratification is good, reflecting on your choices is bad. If it makes you feel good in the moment, it is good. If it makes you feel bad in the moment, it is bad. Don’t think, FEEL!!!!
I agree and one bit of proof is the saying I've heard, "No regrets." Yes, you need to have regrets. Negative emotions are all part of us and have evolved like the good ones. They serve a purpose and without them we make no changes and our behaviors are blown by the wind. So I agree, it's all about doing bad but not feeling bad about it.
The left also pushing that you shouldn’t be ashamed of how you feel. The end result of that is people publicly admitting to be “minor attracted persons” without shame. They want to openly be degenerates and not feel the shame they know they should.
And in part we can thank the internet for this. It used to be that evil freaks used to feel isolated and embarrassed and now they can find so many people just like them instantly. It gives them the impression that there is nothing wrong with them when really they should be hiding in fear.
The problem is the current crop has been selected/placed by Marxists. There are plenty of conservatives that went to those schools/work in ads. They are weeded out.
Worse than that - it literally violates the fiduciary responsibility to shareholders by deliberately self sabotaging themselves. A consumer company once positioned in the marketplace isn't meant to take sides (if it hasn't previously done so before) because it literally changes the investment vehicle mid-stream.
If you're looking to exclude half of your customers on a whim - you're essentially in FTC / SEC violation.
You seen the flappy wristed soy eating limp dick (if they haven't had a front hole put in) people that work at these ad agencies? Unless they do it in house it isn't likely they would be able to get a credible ad.
See? You can have your bread-and-circuses if you just submit. We may even allow you to breathe oxygen sans face diaper when you riot after your sports faggots win or lose.
FUCK YOU MF'ERS.... YOU ALLOWED YOUR PLAYERS TO TAKE A KNEE DURING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AND INSULTED OUR ARMED FORCES, YOU SUPPORTED THE BLM RIOTS AND DONATED TO THEIR CAUSE THAT RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF INNOCENT PEOPLE AND LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS! YOU SUPPORTED ANTIFA AND BLM TO BURN BUSINESSES AND PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR HOMES! YOU CHEERED WHEN KYLE RITTENHOUSE AND THE McCLUSKYS WERE ARRESTED, AND THE NFL, NBA, MLB, AND EVERY OTHER SPORTING FRANCHISE CALLED EVERY WHITE PERSON IN THE STANDS A NAZI FACIST AND ENTERTAINED THE IDEA OF PUTTING THEM IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS LIKE IT WAS A FUCKING JOKE! FUCK YOU! ENJOY CRUSHING POVERTY AND BANKRUPTCY LIKE THE REST OF THE CLASS.
Call me skeptical, but I don't think we are winning the culture war. This shit is all coming back even stronger the next time it is politically useful again.
We ain't winning shit right now. Morale and hope are vitally important, but snake oil, false hope, false prophets, and denial of reality are far more detrimental than "dooming".
Acknowledge the enemy/problem
Be honest about it
Formulate a plan
Work to defeat it without remorse or compromise
Win
This false hope and plan bullshit can't go away soon enough. It's a mind-virus just like communism and people swallow up the enemy's propaganda because it will just "magically" work out without them having to do anything.
I agree with you, the left has been good at mobilizing for years because they thought they were the resistance. Well guess what, now they’re the ones in power, we are the resistance now. We need men from this sub out there running for office and their state legislatures to really make a difference.
You know what. I fucking hate Jeremy Boering. The others are good though. Ben is rough sometimes, but at least he didn't go full Lin Wood conspiracy crazy like many did on this site. You should support them because they are producing movies literally for the purpose of persuading the young generation into conservatism (they've openly said this many times). That's more than either of us will ever do.
We all knew that if Biden got installed, Democrats would abandon black people asap. (vote for me or you ain't black). Well that is what I see right now.
Actually, they probably bowed out because half the viewers already checked out and wouldn't watch anyway. Football ratings are waaaaay down... I am in marketing and our local networks that run games have lots of prime ad spots for ridiculously low rates - they have almost been giving them away.
I honestly don’t buy it. The reason they aren’t advertising woke bullshit anymore is because they won. They don’t need to push this bullshit anymore because they successfully put the Establishment back in charge of the presidency.
They were purposefully pushing woke crap despite the fact that it was losing them money because it offends half the country. The temporary loss of money was to win in the long run by having the establishment take back over.
Now all these giant corporations will reap the benefits of a bought out congress and president. Watch now as they cut out all the political crap and go back to trying to make as much money as possible.
The establishment will just continue writing laws that benefit the elites and gut the middle class.
It’s all part of their sick game to milk us for all we are worth.
Fuck em. We now know who we can trust and who we can’t trust. Trump was a gift to us. He made them all pull their masks off.
I don't think woke stuff did anything to win them back government. The only thing that won them back government was cheating and then even when they got caught, they had all of the institutions in their pocket to wave it away until the clock ran out. If anything, the woke crap pushed more people towards sanity (i.e., Trump)
The cheating is what put them over the top, but it was still necessary to instill the programming on half the country so that they’d have a visceral hatred toward anything Trump-related.
It was a tactic to maximize turnout in 2018 and 2020 from the freaks and weirdos.
Yes, we still won and got more votes and they cheated to win. But without constant orange man bad being shoved down the lefties throats, some of them may have even started to like Trump, or at least tolerated him as a political figure.
All this woke garbage was needed during Trump’s presidency as it created an atmosphere where they could orchestrate the BLM/Antifa riots and it stuck with their narrative.
Now that Joe is in office, none of that is needed. Everything will now be back to “normal” for them.
I bet any money they go back to just trying to sell to everyone. They don’t want to pay any taxes, all while reaping the benefits paid for by the taxes YOU pay.
Once player salaries start dropping like a rock then progress is being made. Until we stop paying a thug millions of dollars just to carry a ball, then the sport can just keep dying.
Putting athletes and celebrities on a pedestal has been part of what has ruined this country.
They do when you actually have the money to buy the product in the first place. I know that the blue haired lefties in Seattle can't spend $300 on a Seahawks ticket. And yet the NFL kisses that ass? That's why this boycott does work. I wish they had competition and they would be gone now. I started up with the XFL last year and loved it but covid canceled the competition for the NFL.
Never understood groups of people that openly and proudly resent the very country/culture/society that made them prosperous. Pathetic that only a pay cut gets their attention. Hard to take someone seriously, when they say they are being held down by society... and then immediately hop into their Bugatti and speed off to one of several mansions. 🤡🌎
I lead a sports free life but watch Super Bowl commercials and I don’t have cable. Last year we deplorables were all knuckle dragging gun loving homophobic racists and they could work with that. This year we are all knuckle dragging gun loving homophobic racist DOMESTIC TERRORISTS who are not bowing to our ruling class. That’s tough to put in a 60 second ad which costs a fortune and few of us are going to watch and fewer are going to buy the product. Good on us for now but I’d like to see them grovel with deplorables were right all along we’re sorry ads. Maybe next year...just my opinion.
If sports would just play sports and advertisers just advertised their products and services instead of trying to brainwash the country with social and political ideology they wouldn't have any problems at all. But they have forgotten why they are in business and the brainwashing has backfired.
Never forget the NFL is a two face faggot. Accepts money from the military to run "Support our Troops" themes then lets commies knee during the National Anthem. Fuck the NFL.
They are afraid of cutting a commercial that may offend one side or another? Has it ever occured to these fucking morons that they could just make a neutral, non political advertisement? Or is just the Joe Biden effect, they want the world to be as boring as possible whilst he's president?
Given the last 20 years do you think the Millennial generation in general is capable of separating life from PC politics? I'm of the opinion that they see these things as inseparable. So no, probably never occurred to these morons. When you march around town day after day with a shitty pink dye job, your political position is your life.
More to the point, It looks like they’re afraid of offending THIS half of the country for a change, after enabling and appeasing the militant leftists for so long.
This is the old bait and switch, to get you watching again... No need to appease blm and antifa if they are about to railroad communist legislation through the government for the next 4 years.
turn it OFF. who gives a SHIT! dont pay for ANY hollywood movies. dont buy any music. fuck em. dont even talk about them. go on and live your life without worrying about the nfl , nba or anything! they had their chance to stay out of politics, but they decided their fate!
send them a message. completely. too late for them. make them lose money. make them beg! make them lose money, all over. they can rot
oh this financial war is just beginning. i'm not forgiving fox news, nfl, or any of these POS companies that foisted this pedo president on us. NOT GETTING A DAMN 30PENCE FROM ME
Why not just advertise your product without the political messaging? What happened to the commericals where a cute puppy chases a duck around then some random product pops up?
Don’t watch the super bowl. Turn off your tv.

Also, don’t watch any sports, they have all cucked to the left. And use this list to boycott people and companies. https://archive.is/12mtO

Wasn't there something else happening at 12pm EST on Jan 20? Hard to remember but I think there was...
LOL I'm fairly certain Fight Night had better viewership.
Pirate the audio books
Pirate the audio books and mail them a check directly.
You are a thinker
Dear Mr. Thomas Sowell,
I owe you $26. Why is not important. Check is enclosed.
Don't the publisher's offer an audio option directly? I could be wrong, but maybe the publisher's website?
Audiobooks seems like one of the easiest fields to break into. How many of these “good boys, turning their lives around” were “rappers” or “aspiring rappers.” They buy equipment, build a plywood box, soundproof it and boom, they are a rapper. Why couldn’t you do them same? Find an unemployed sound engineer, find a few people that can read and speak well, build your studio and record. Start your own “audible.” Share profits.
That’s still theft and unfair to the authors. Gotta be a more reasonable option than that.
If the authors were getting paid, it wouldn’t be unfair to them. It would be unfair to the rest of the audiobook people though. The readers, the techs that make sure all the equipment is working properly, etc...they wouldn’t be getting paid.
Pirate everything. Even stuff you don't watch so you can share it and screw them over even harder.
NnooOOooOooOo what about all the arts fags that hate us?! Someone has to think of their gigantic Cheque!!
Yeah, because being a conservative means being entitled to the works of other for free.
New Balance is made in the USA. Not sure of their politics tho...
The CEO of New Balance was supportive of Trump back in 2016 and The Left was burning New Balance shoes in response.
Some of NB are made in the USA. One has to check the label. Usually, the sub-$100 are made elsewhere. Just double check first.
some NB is made in the USA. They increased prices and lowered quality from about 5 years ago, the last time I had a NB American made shoe.
Some are...but you're going to pay for them. I did buy a pair about a year ago from them and that pair was made in Vietnam.
Have you looked at your local library? Most now partner with bigger organizations to distribute all sorts of electronic books (both audio and e-books).
New Balance. I have a pair of Asics that I love but not sure about them other than they are Japanese. They are not on this list at least.
Don't know about audiobooks as I've never had a use for them.

It is the best time of the year to buy a new TV since sales always go up before the Superbowl and the big box companies still have to compete with each other for the time being. Though that may change if fewer and fewer people actually watch the game. Also it will change if we are reduced to one or two big box stores like Wal-Mart and Target.
Why own a tv?
Got rid of it 4 years ago. Don’t miss it at all. Walked by a house with a big screen the other day. Seen TV show playing. I shit you not: the character’s in the show all had masks on their faces.
Step 1: Unplug TV.
Step 2: Wait a month. Do you miss it?
Step 3: Sell the TV on craigslist.

I have a Sony 4k Android TV that I enjoy watching podcasts on as well as old movies, tv shows, and documentaries.
Large, cheap, video output displays are quite handy for a lot things.
I use my TV as a computer monitor. Don't need a new one. Most new TVs are surveillance equipment now, anyway. If it's a "smart" tv, or has Alexa on it, fuck that noise.
I jumped off the "bigger, better" train a while ago. There's no movies or shows worth spending the money for 4K or whatever the new "tv hotness" is. Or spending money to buy streaming apps from companies that hate me because of who I voted for.
Still some need to learn... please teach them, somehow.

I have never “watched” a Super Bowl. I have been present when a group of friends watched it, but I didn’t pay attention to it. And I always actively cheered for both teams to lose, regardless of what teams were playing. I was there for the comradery. I was there for the food.
I used to watch boxing, traditional martial arts and mma. I watched strongman competitions and stihl timber sports. Mainstream sports have long been disdained in my house.
I love football and I'm a long suffering Browns fan but I haven't watched pro football since they sold us out to the Marxists and Gender Deniers two years ago. Having said that, this is a yuge win for normal people.
Super ^This.
Rookie. I haven't had my television on since Nov 4th.
FUVK THEM ALL!
The advertisers know the viewership will be down this year compared to previous years.
There's still a whole world behind the Super Bowl ad thing - it's now the traditional time advertisers and their ad agencies try to win awards, it's more of an Oscars for advertising while a football game is played. They pay 5 million for the ad space and millions more for the ad itself so they can have a shiny trophy on the CEO's shelf, and the ad agencies can boost their fees when they win.
Even with lowered viewership, it's still one of the biggest captive audiences for Big Ad all year.
Exactly correct, do not turn it on, don't talk about it, I agree - don't even check for 'updates online' either.
100 updoots
I can't understand why people like sportsball. I never could, but now it's even MORE obnoxious than ever. How is it fun to watch a bunch of retarded ball-chuckers prance around the field in matching outfits, grabbing each other's heavily padded bodies, then celebrating that they moved an oblong air sac into a rectangular shape on the field like they're the fucking second coming of Christ? You couldn't PAY ME to enjoy that shit.
They're not afraid of offending us, only the blm and antifa crowd.
you got it reversed this time... read the article
I stand by what I said. They don't want to offend the blm and antifa crowds, but you are right in that they are being very considerate in not wanting to offend us either. But I STILL think they don't give a hoot about offending us.
This is so wrong. They are doing it now because political division isn’t good when dems are in power onlyy try when trump was. Don’t buy their bullshit. I turned off sports forever. My kids won’t watch and their kids won’t watch. We won’t spend a dime. Problem is tomorrow manybretards willing to watch still.
Yep, time for them to make the narrative that everything is wonderful again
I think they should use hero racist white privileged deplorable patriot first responders as props in the Super Bowl.
Give them tickets as a reward for getting the vaccine.
Exactly. They are doing this to help Biden and his fake unity. But hey, BLM can start asking Biden : where is our money? Did you stole it?
Biden is in deep shit.
I think it's in a convenient excuse, as NFL viewership numbers fall.
Conservatives have Fox News destroying levels of power. Companies see that even if they won't speak of it. Coca Cola, Ford, etc see that and don't want the headache.
We need to continue being that headache. We actually need to ramp up to full-on migraine. Cancel Hollywood next. Anything involving discretionary income can and should be the target of coordinated boycotts. C.R.E.A.M.
^ Read it. Learn it. Live it.
We are the majority and if we all joined together and stopped giving money to all these corporations that are trying to ruin our lives it would make a difference.
Yes! Be the Migraine!!
This is more then a headache. This is company altering, laying off 25 years worth of company growth. We are a force in the economic realm. BLM and Antifa are the headaches. People with little market power but they squawk the loudest. Ask Goya beans how one of their (the lefts) boycotts worked.
Now as Nike, Twitter, Facebook, Gillette, DC comics, Star Wars, etc how one of our boycotts hit their bottom line.
Bingo.
In the span of a few months, Fox News went from being the king of cable news to falling behind CNN and MSNBC. Advertisers have definitely noticed that, and have realized that maybe it's not a good idea to antagonize the 75 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump.
Notice that 75 million votes for DJT doesn't account for destroyed ballots, switched votes, or any of their other fraud that was never caught.
75 million (it's more than that) who are gainfully employed, unlike most of Biden's fake votes.
Conservatives have a lot of buying power. They just don't realize it, because they're too busy working.
This.
Wrong. They shit on America just to make people think we're all behind BLM terrorists to push people to the left. Now that Biden is in office they want "unity". Fuck them.
I still stand by what I said, but I like what you said too and the first word of your statement.
I think it is more a 'why advertise' attitude. Advertising should grow your business, and in this climate that is impossible. If you are Coke do you need to advertise (any more than a sale price).
Coke doesn’t advertise sales. The retailers do.
Yes. They're only giving it a rest because the slave owning racists are back in white house. Time to stop the slander.
They aren't pulling ads because they fear they'll offend us. They know it's gonna be the least watched super bowl in the last 20 years, so don't waste the money.
That, and they already stole the government. So they don't need to keep the pandering and brainwashing up. OP is a fool for thinking that it's because they don't want to lose viewership. The boomers and sportsball fans are too weak to give up their fun.
But they are kind of tacitly acknowledging that is because of us.
You are a moron if you think we are winning the culture war.
^ Yes, true. We are not winning. We just elected our man in a landslide. Who is sitting in the oval office?
That's not a culture war you refer to. That's going for power outright.
If you have to cheat to win, you were always a loser.
A land slide? You mean a razor thin margin after admitting to cheating and then cheating. What that makes you is a loser and shit human being for celebrating that and thinking it's a win. It's so sickening how proud some of you are over your new third world puppet dictator. And the think is you all know it or you wouldn't have had to cheat and then be so proud of that cheating.
Edit: OK I misunderstood the comment but this is why we need to use the /s tag. Thought the guy was lefty saying he'd won.
Um, I think he was saying we elected Trump, but they installed Biden anyway.
He was referring to the fact that Trump won, but it doesn't matter because the media put Biden in by destroying any discussion about the fraud.
You're right on all of that, thanks for adding on.
Electoral College.
Is Biden our guy? Can you read?
No Biden is their guy but how do I know the commenter isn't "them"? He is the one in the oval office. Easy mistake to make.
They keep swinging their legs over each side of the fence, pissing off more people every time.
Looks like they finally figured out who their audience is.
Well when I turn on the TV, every advertiser seems to think their audience is female and brown skinned so I hope they have fun with that. I'm told I don't understand black people so I guess don't expect me to understand or buy the products you market to them exclusively now.
Oh Rocket Mortgage. Oh, I guess that's for black women and since black people commit most of the crime in this country then I guess it's not for me. Their marketing is focused on criminals and people I am told have no money because racism. lol that's how that all works with me and I find better companies to spend money with.
You'd be doing cultural appropiation buying these products. That'd be Nazism right there.
They don’t care about that. They know people will continue to buy their products blindly anyway. They just know that the cost is not worth it because we will not be watching. The Super Bowl ads have become the most expensive 30 seconds on air. It’s just not worth it with viewership down so far.
Antifas and BLM are useful idiots, just like black people are used by the DNC and media to bow for their masters and stay in the democrat plantation. They are no longer needed so they will be put in their places now.
But we are the ones who spend money unlike those other crowds so it will do them well to fear us instead. We may not burn your shit down but there will be nothing to burn down in the first place without us. If they haven't already figured that out they will soon and this article implies that some have. Still traitors until it suits them I figure.
I agree, this is a simple business decision. The advertising impact of NFL is dead. Even at a tiny discount, it's WAY WAY overpriced.
They know the networks are lying about viewership and it's not worth throwing $5mil per spot down the toilet.
Good to know that some businesses are actually maintaining the basic principles of corporate finance.
Ya because those actually fight for our causes unlike us. Flame them if you want but they actually stand for their ideals no matter how fucked up they are with actions.
They get plenty of gibs and welfare.
They're not getting their covid relief checks. Antifa & BLM do work. It's full of teachers. They even have people at CDC. Stop blaming the poor. It's people with power in institutions leading these riots. They even have Democrat politicians' kids joining: DeBlasio', Omar's, Ellison's, Tim Kaine's etc
How are all these companies so impotent that they can't just make a commercial where they just show the product being great without any political shit at all.
Have a white couple hanging out with a black couple drinking a coke saying "Man, coke sure is good!"
Ta-fucking-da
They're all so fucking warped.
Or even in the 90s when Coke and Pepsi just had stars doing a song and dance about how great their soft drink was. These marketing people just no imagination anymore.
"Wait... make... a commercial... ... without... shitting on Republicans... OR Christianity...? What? You only pay me 6 figures!"
Well back then it was conservatives who were complaining about everything. Music and pop culture were constantly under attack by them. Now its the left who are burning books, banning free speech, demanding compliance, etc.
The right was bitching about everything, then they shut up, and now our elections have been stolen from us.
Yeah but they were bitching about dumb shit. Not anything that actually mattered.
Some of the criticisms were pedantic, but they were witnessing the beginning of complete societal moral degradation. Unfortunately they spent too much time bitching about TV shows and not enough thwarting Marxist infiltration of academia.
This is incorrect. They have ALWAYS complained about "moral degradation" (who's morals?) and when it finally came no one was listening because they cried wolf to many times. Guess what, citing "Jesus" as the reason why you can't do something will never work because most people can tell it's just a bullshit excuse. On the other hand, if they had been like "Hey, you shouldn't do X even though it feels good because it can negatively affect you emotionally and psychologically" then more people would listen.
Remember that dove chocolate magazine ad that was two altar boys kissing, a black one and a white one. That was the trifecta of purposefully inciting ad work
The problem is that the current crop of ad makers all went to Marxist film schools. They don’t know how to make anything without pushing Globohomo race-mixing and transsexuals.
I wonder why that generation doesn't at some point wake up and say, hey, ya know life has only gotten worse for me year after year since the year 2000. I wonder if it's us? Nothing they have tried has had any positive impact on people or the planet. Smart people would figure that out and change tactics.
Don't you know that when things go wrong, it's society screwing them with its internalized oppression?
We're watching the crowd pick Barabbus over Jesus in real time. Jesus says "fix yourself" and he's murdered like a criminal. Barabbus says "fix the system with violence", and he's saved from execution. The powers that be, Pilate, just don't want to be murdered by the crowd.
This is true.
If you want a dark red pill - homosexual suicide rate has gone up about 1% per year since 2000. "Acceptance" is leading to more suicides.
They think they just need to push harder
"If we could only rid ourselves of those oppressive Kulaks"
They're religious zealots. They believe all injustices in the world are caused by people not following their political ideology. The worse their lives are, the more proof it is that they need to bring all others into submission so they can institute their enlightened policies and bring the world to a utopian state.
Self reflection is a trait learn through discipline provided, usually while young. An orderly, disciplined life as a child provides the means of self discipline as a teen/young adult. The self reflection usually starts around that time, if it starts at all. That’s why the left went after the education system. They start teaching them at a younger and younger age that instant gratification is good, reflecting on your choices is bad. If it makes you feel good in the moment, it is good. If it makes you feel bad in the moment, it is bad. Don’t think, FEEL!!!!
I agree and one bit of proof is the saying I've heard, "No regrets." Yes, you need to have regrets. Negative emotions are all part of us and have evolved like the good ones. They serve a purpose and without them we make no changes and our behaviors are blown by the wind. So I agree, it's all about doing bad but not feeling bad about it.
The left also pushing that you shouldn’t be ashamed of how you feel. The end result of that is people publicly admitting to be “minor attracted persons” without shame. They want to openly be degenerates and not feel the shame they know they should.
And in part we can thank the internet for this. It used to be that evil freaks used to feel isolated and embarrassed and now they can find so many people just like them instantly. It gives them the impression that there is nothing wrong with them when really they should be hiding in fear.
That is part of it, but they gathered together before the internet. They just had to be very secretive. Hiding in dark bars and back rooms.
The problem is the current crop has been selected/placed by Marxists. There are plenty of conservatives that went to those schools/work in ads. They are weeded out.
Worse than that - it literally violates the fiduciary responsibility to shareholders by deliberately self sabotaging themselves. A consumer company once positioned in the marketplace isn't meant to take sides (if it hasn't previously done so before) because it literally changes the investment vehicle mid-stream.
If you're looking to exclude half of your customers on a whim - you're essentially in FTC / SEC violation.
Business Judgment Rule has entered the chat
"Black and Brown bodies are more valuable than profits!"
Isn't Peter Strozk's wife in charge of enforcement at the SEC?
The polar bears are a symbol of white supremacy and environmental destructions.
Actual lol
You seen the flappy wristed soy eating limp dick (if they haven't had a front hole put in) people that work at these ad agencies? Unless they do it in house it isn't likely they would be able to get a credible ad.
Any mention of "front hole" will get an updoot from me
Don’t be fooled. Biden has been installed, they now want to return to normal.
uNiTY
See? You can have your bread-and-circuses if you just submit. We may even allow you to breathe oxygen sans face diaper when you riot after your sports faggots win or lose.
Until the 2024 election cycle.
FUCK YOU MF'ERS.... YOU ALLOWED YOUR PLAYERS TO TAKE A KNEE DURING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AND INSULTED OUR ARMED FORCES, YOU SUPPORTED THE BLM RIOTS AND DONATED TO THEIR CAUSE THAT RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF INNOCENT PEOPLE AND LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS! YOU SUPPORTED ANTIFA AND BLM TO BURN BUSINESSES AND PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR HOMES! YOU CHEERED WHEN KYLE RITTENHOUSE AND THE McCLUSKYS WERE ARRESTED, AND THE NFL, NBA, MLB, AND EVERY OTHER SPORTING FRANCHISE CALLED EVERY WHITE PERSON IN THE STANDS A NAZI FACIST AND ENTERTAINED THE IDEA OF PUTTING THEM IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS LIKE IT WAS A FUCKING JOKE! FUCK YOU! ENJOY CRUSHING POVERTY AND BANKRUPTCY LIKE THE REST OF THE CLASS.
Truthfully, it would be easier to read if it were not all caps.
I felt his anger tho
speak up
They also put the names of rapists and scumbags on their players helmets in an effort to kick off a race war, which didn't happen.
Amen
Call me skeptical, but I don't think we are winning the culture war. This shit is all coming back even stronger the next time it is politically useful again.
We ain't winning shit right now. Morale and hope are vitally important, but snake oil, false hope, false prophets, and denial of reality are far more detrimental than "dooming".
This false hope and plan bullshit can't go away soon enough. It's a mind-virus just like communism and people swallow up the enemy's propaganda because it will just "magically" work out without them having to do anything.
Most people here saw through that bullshit
I agree with you, the left has been good at mobilizing for years because they thought they were the resistance. Well guess what, now they’re the ones in power, we are the resistance now. We need men from this sub out there running for office and their state legislatures to really make a difference.
subsribe to the Daily Wire, Gab, Crowder etc. Forget about mainstream sources. Dump your cable provider.
Fuck the daily wire
You know what. I fucking hate Jeremy Boering. The others are good though. Ben is rough sometimes, but at least he didn't go full Lin Wood conspiracy crazy like many did on this site. You should support them because they are producing movies literally for the purpose of persuading the young generation into conservatism (they've openly said this many times). That's more than either of us will ever do.
"I'm such a rebel I listen to Steven Crowder and Ben Shapiro!"
I don't listen to Crowder, was listing media outlets to support. But fuck you friend.
Ok, you're such a rebel you read Steven Crowder.
We all knew that if Biden got installed, Democrats would abandon black people asap. (vote for me or you ain't black). Well that is what I see right now.
Maybe they realise it galvanizes the right?
Actually, they probably bowed out because half the viewers already checked out and wouldn't watch anyway. Football ratings are waaaaay down... I am in marketing and our local networks that run games have lots of prime ad spots for ridiculously low rates - they have almost been giving them away.
I agree. The real reason they aren’t advertising on the super bowl is because everyone quit watching. The audience is gone.
Not an ad agency. Just for a local business.
I honestly don’t buy it. The reason they aren’t advertising woke bullshit anymore is because they won. They don’t need to push this bullshit anymore because they successfully put the Establishment back in charge of the presidency.
They were purposefully pushing woke crap despite the fact that it was losing them money because it offends half the country. The temporary loss of money was to win in the long run by having the establishment take back over.
Now all these giant corporations will reap the benefits of a bought out congress and president. Watch now as they cut out all the political crap and go back to trying to make as much money as possible.
The establishment will just continue writing laws that benefit the elites and gut the middle class.
It’s all part of their sick game to milk us for all we are worth.
Fuck em. We now know who we can trust and who we can’t trust. Trump was a gift to us. He made them all pull their masks off.
I don't think woke stuff did anything to win them back government. The only thing that won them back government was cheating and then even when they got caught, they had all of the institutions in their pocket to wave it away until the clock ran out. If anything, the woke crap pushed more people towards sanity (i.e., Trump)
The cheating is what put them over the top, but it was still necessary to instill the programming on half the country so that they’d have a visceral hatred toward anything Trump-related.
It was a tactic to maximize turnout in 2018 and 2020 from the freaks and weirdos.
Yes, we still won and got more votes and they cheated to win. But without constant orange man bad being shoved down the lefties throats, some of them may have even started to like Trump, or at least tolerated him as a political figure.
All this woke garbage was needed during Trump’s presidency as it created an atmosphere where they could orchestrate the BLM/Antifa riots and it stuck with their narrative.
Now that Joe is in office, none of that is needed. Everything will now be back to “normal” for them.
I bet any money they go back to just trying to sell to everyone. They don’t want to pay any taxes, all while reaping the benefits paid for by the taxes YOU pay.
This is what those parasitic fucks are all about.
Underrated comment.
We are winning nothing. We have been losing for 20 years or more.
Thing is they are still advertising and supporting as hard as ever. I'm not sure they laid off as you suggest.
Good, starve the NFL of some revenue
Once player salaries start dropping like a rock then progress is being made. Until we stop paying a thug millions of dollars just to carry a ball, then the sport can just keep dying. Putting athletes and celebrities on a pedestal has been part of what has ruined this country.
Too Late BANKRUPT THE BASTARDS. WEWILL NEVER FORGET
yes!
Boycotts do work.
TIL Gillett lost $8 billon because some liberal in marketing wanted to run a toxic male ad. I hope they got fired.
You fail upwards when you have the "correct" politics now.
And the blamed the popularity of beards...fucking morons.
They do when you actually have the money to buy the product in the first place. I know that the blue haired lefties in Seattle can't spend $300 on a Seahawks ticket. And yet the NFL kisses that ass? That's why this boycott does work. I wish they had competition and they would be gone now. I started up with the XFL last year and loved it but covid canceled the competition for the NFL.
Here's a brilliant idea:
Why don't you just advertise the damn product or service. Tell us why it is good. Tell us why it is better than your competitors. Jesus.
Because there is no difference. advertising got away from that about 5 minutes after the word advertising was created.
Never understood groups of people that openly and proudly resent the very country/culture/society that made them prosperous. Pathetic that only a pay cut gets their attention. Hard to take someone seriously, when they say they are being held down by society... and then immediately hop into their Bugatti and speed off to one of several mansions. 🤡🌎
In the words of The Rock, "IT DOESN'T MATTER". The damage is done, you pandered to a crowd that was not even watching you and you pay the price.
Its too late, NFL. You already lost who you lost. I don't even know who's playing.
I lead a sports free life but watch Super Bowl commercials and I don’t have cable. Last year we deplorables were all knuckle dragging gun loving homophobic racists and they could work with that. This year we are all knuckle dragging gun loving homophobic racist DOMESTIC TERRORISTS who are not bowing to our ruling class. That’s tough to put in a 60 second ad which costs a fortune and few of us are going to watch and fewer are going to buy the product. Good on us for now but I’d like to see them grovel with deplorables were right all along we’re sorry ads. Maybe next year...just my opinion.
If sports would just play sports and advertisers just advertised their products and services instead of trying to brainwash the country with social and political ideology they wouldn't have any problems at all. But they have forgotten why they are in business and the brainwashing has backfired.
“Gillette razors, which lost $8 billion in write-downs”
Fucking amazing. I hadn’t heard that. I did stop buying Gillette products though so I’m happy my little effort helped.
Same here!
Good, fuck the NFL. Never mix sports with politics.
To late fuck the NFL way over paid fags in tights that just want to play smear the queer.. they made their bed now they can lay in it
Never forget the NFL is a two face faggot. Accepts money from the military to run "Support our Troops" themes then lets commies knee during the National Anthem. Fuck the NFL.
Not watching don’t care
Too late
It's just as well - I won't be watching anyway.
THIS IS THE YEAR TO MAKE THE STAND.
DO NOT WATCH THE SUPER BOWL. HIT THEM WHERE IT HURTS.
We didn't win shit. They aren't needed now that they can knowingly cheat and get away with it, so they are ditching their string arm organizations.
Fuck them. Fuck the nfl, and fuck the super bowl.
They are afraid of cutting a commercial that may offend one side or another? Has it ever occured to these fucking morons that they could just make a neutral, non political advertisement? Or is just the Joe Biden effect, they want the world to be as boring as possible whilst he's president?
Given the last 20 years do you think the Millennial generation in general is capable of separating life from PC politics? I'm of the opinion that they see these things as inseparable. So no, probably never occurred to these morons. When you march around town day after day with a shitty pink dye job, your political position is your life.
Too late for redemption. No serious person is watching the NFL.
Too late!
What a bunch of pussies.
They’ll do it again next election. Don’t fall for this.
Well this explains why the advertisements have been progressively less funny.
More to the point, It looks like they’re afraid of offending THIS half of the country for a change, after enabling and appeasing the militant leftists for so long.
This is the old bait and switch, to get you watching again... No need to appease blm and antifa if they are about to railroad communist legislation through the government for the next 4 years.
Gotta clear out that airtime for Huawei. 🇨🇳
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
turn it OFF. who gives a SHIT! dont pay for ANY hollywood movies. dont buy any music. fuck em. dont even talk about them. go on and live your life without worrying about the nfl , nba or anything! they had their chance to stay out of politics, but they decided their fate!
send them a message. completely. too late for them. make them lose money. make them beg! make them lose money, all over. they can rot
Who gives a fuck? Still don't watch. They need to be eradicated.
More like after BLM was linked to the Capitol bru ha ha, the advertisers and the NFL are staying the fuck away from that mess.
I doubt anybody with money knows jack about what actually happened in DC.
Sports in general all a waste of time. Spend your time doing something more productive. Get a hobby, I like model trains.
oh this financial war is just beginning. i'm not forgiving fox news, nfl, or any of these POS companies that foisted this pedo president on us. NOT GETTING A DAMN 30PENCE FROM ME
I think they know there won't be the audience that there used to be. Just not worth the big $$$ the networks charge.
I will not be watching
Why not just advertise your product without the political messaging? What happened to the commericals where a cute puppy chases a duck around then some random product pops up?
"we promoted victimhood culture and now its hard to make ads without offending someone, what gives?!?!"
Superbowl? Haven't put on a sports channel since Sept 2016. People still watch these dumb overpaid jocks?
