When I watched I became angry and frustrated, thinking “so is this where we are now? The national anthem is too controversial to play?”
But then my heart filled with pride when the audience started singing together, and made me think “they can only push us so far, we will stand for what’s right”.
Then I felt like a fool after seeing the news article and the full clip. I was manipulated because right now I feel that there is tension when the national anthem is played at sporting events and people are protesting the anthem!
I don’t know the intentions of that person on Twitter manipulating a 5 year old clip with no context and it going viral, but I don’t think it’s to bring us closer together.
Yes, this is what propaganda looks like in 2020. You're light years ahead of BoardKaren; she's not even able to tie her own shoes yet!
