Lol. Let me give you just a few hints WaPo:

- Do the plants he's standing in front of have any significance in the history of Puerto Rico and its relationship to the rest of the US?
- What language was he using the ENTIRE FUCKING PERFORMANCE?

Analysis: Weeks before he set foot on the stage, Bad Bunny’s halftime performance had already become a media event.
But if you were looking for political commentary, the closest that you got was when he said “God bless America” in English.

Analysis | Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show was expected to provoke. Did it?
The Bad Bunny Super Bowl show nodded to injustices in Puerto Rico but mostly evoked wholesome family values that meshed with the more sentimental commercials.

You can't put it any clearer, or more accurately, than this. It's a simple fact that Israel practices apartheid. If you support Israel as it has existed since its inception then you support apartheid.
Apartheid is a system of governance and it exists or doesn't exist. In the case of the intersection of the 1948 territories and the 1967 occupied territories, there is an overarching, singular system of law for Israeli Jews and three separate systems of law for Palestinian Arabs. This is apartheid.

People ask why there is more focus on Israel than on other issues. But in how many other cases are the major Western powers actively aiding a country as it invades and colonizes its neighbors, killing, expelling and imprisoning their inhabitants?

Everyone who claims that the Dem leadership wants to stop this brutality is complicit in it. At this point any politician that doesn't advocate for abolishing these forces is by definition directly supporting their violence.
ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”
What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.
