    No, they didn’t. The point that were made all stated that everything’s protected by free speech. No one here is upset about the Black National Anthem being sung, you’re just trying to stir up shit. Ergo, DON’T MAKE IT A THING.

      Yes. They did.

      The point that were made all stated that everything’s protected by free speech.

      Yes, I got that. My point (once again) is no one thinks it is illegal, which makes the argument it a strawman (ie: arguing against a point no one is making).

      No one here is upset about the Black National Anthem being sung

      Oh look, another strawman.

      Ergo, DON’T MAKE IT A THING.

      I’m really not sure what this is supposed to mean in this context. I didn’t “make it a thing”. It was “made a thing” by whoever decided to sing it, the people who were upset by it, the article that was published, and the person replying to the article before I even knew it took place.

        Oh look, someone trying to stir up a dumb argument on the internet because they need attention.

          Yes, that’s definitely what’s happening. I need attention from anonymous strangers on the internet. 🤦‍♂️ It’s definitely not that someone had a bad take. Deny deny deny.

                I understand perfectly. It means this is not a thing, and you never should have tried to make it one.

                    Are you actively trying to give us an example of what MAGA outrage actually looks like? Because from here, reading your rants…. You’re coming off like a very upset Trump supporter.
