MAGA melts down over Super Bowl halftime performance
Conservatives weren’t too impressed with the rapper’s performance, which featured appearances by Samuel L. Jackson, SZA, and Serena Williams.
You're viewing a single thread.
Right-wing commentators Eric Daugherty and Benny Johnson took their criticism to the extreme, describing the performance as “Black nationalist" and calling Lamar a “mumbling pagan Satanic cultist”.
This would only make me want to see it if I hadn’t already lol
Can you even be both pagan and Satanic?
"He's a mumbling pagan, Satanic, Jewish, Mexican, Socialist, Antifa, Chinese..." Beyond all the social abuses, I hate MAGA and right-wing pundits because they've robbed words of meaning, on a scale that forces adjustment unlike anything else.
Having grown up strictly Catholic I can tell you it's because they view the world extremely binary black and white. Either you're a Christian, or you're "led astray by Satan's lies", so literally everything else is Satanism.
To a Catholic even a Protestant could be considered a Satanist.
To be fair a lot of protestants don’t believe Roman Catholics are Christian either because if the overt idolatry and the whole fact that the state that supposedly killed Jesus also formed the Roman Catholic Church.
Can you even be both pagan and Satanic?
Only in the eyes of people incapable of rational thought.
They are fundamentally completely different religions, and paganism is much much older.
Paganism is not a religion. It’s literally “not an Abrahamic faith ” in most uses. There’s no one form of Paganism.
I am a Christian... a Christian agnostic, but still.
My comment was kind of bigoted, sorry. i wrote it without really thinking. i've removed the offending part
I appreciate the revision. Thank you
He can be if you don’t know what a dictionary is and you get revenue by being divisive. The more charged the language, the higher the revenue gets.
And Kendrick Lamar is famously Christian and makes references to God frequently in his lyrics. Although, I doubt they consider the black church “Christian” since prosperity gospel megachurch bullshit strays so far from Christ that they probably can’t recognize an actual Christian any better than they can recognize a fire beat.
Prosperity gospel is by no means a white only thing. Unless he’s gone into detail about the church he attends you can’t know what version of Christianity he is part of.
