I don’t think it’s racist to not enjoy something you’re unfamiliar with. And I worry that labeling stuff that isn’t racism as racism waters down what racism actually is.
I didn’t really like the halftime show, but that’s because it’s not the kind of thing I usually listen to. I didn’t dislike it, it was just kind of…neutral to me. I’m guessing if I knew the tracks I would’ve enjoyed it more.
I did like the set design. It was pretty cool.
Had it been country music I would’ve actively disliked it.
That term was watered down several years ago. Which is sad, because it's supposed to be impactful and mean something when heard. Now it's a reactionary term for "thing/person I don't like". I know we'll return to normalcy eventually, but damn, it's taking a long time.
