[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 3941894, member: 56035"] "Undoubtedly, there will a Super Bowl commercial that advises us “to drink responsibly.” But will there be anything to encourage us to “think responsibly”? [URL="https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/feb/02/super-bowl-patriots-rams-commerce-conscience-social-justice"]The Super Bowl is a showdown of America's dueling values: commerce and conscience[/URL] I get a patriotic zeal whenever I see someone stand for principle, especially at a personal cost, because that’s a core moral we value as Americans. Sacrifice for what’s right. But when people do stand up, we often try to marginalize them and their message. We complain that protest has a time and place – and interfering with our entertainment is neither. Actually, that’s exactly the right time and place, whenever there’s a large gathering of diverse people.
