      I choose to espouse a belief in pagan gods for this reason. I don’t seriously believe in them but I fucking love explaining strange events as the actions of ancient gods. It is just too funny not to do.

      Weird surreal dream predicting your death? Must have been Morpheus. Weird isolated but strong storm at the wrong time of year? Someone made Zeus mad. Your garden just keeps turning out like absolute shit for no reason? Apologize to Demeter immediately. Sorry, I don’t make the rules

      Apparently, he did better. Rather than perform in designer clothes, his entire wardrobe was from Zara. He wanted to make sure that whatever he wore was affordable or at least within reach of his fanbase. I think I read that the retail for what he was wearing was about £250.

          Read the whole thing, looked up the claims.

          They could do better. One of their lead designers is awful. They did make her apologize. They certainly aren’t taking a stand against the horrible things.

          They’re more under fire for allowing Israeli franchisees to spin new stores in Israel and hobnob with various government officials.

          I could see people wanting to boycott them, I could see people being indifferent. The BSD list has FAR worse companies than them, still good of you to point it out.

    I still just don’t give a fuck about Bad Bunny, and still don’t understand how you people fail to recognize that the people who own the Super Bowl put him forward knowing it would galvanize MAGA.

    You people are seriously discussing an event that was entirely concocted to be divisive and I’ve not seen a single mention of that division even occuring to any of you. Like what the actual fuck is wrong with Lemmings?

      Its mainly because the memes community isn’t a hub of vibrant and eloquent political analysis. I posted this because it was funny and related to politics not because it accurately represented the reason and consequences of all events referenced. I understand your frustration but you are looking in the wrong places.

      Many people have a more complex understanding of politics than their funny hahas would suggest.
