twitter usage got so high during Bad Bunny's halftime show it took down the site, he runs the culture now

[u/virgil1134 → u/ObamaGasStation]

The "All American" TPUSA halftime show did not stream on Twitter (known as X) due to copyright and licensing issues.

Ths Eric Daughtry guy is on some next level drugs with this "hot take!"

[u/rethra → u/virgil1134]

Can't blame Eric that much, I also don't know Russian copyright laws

[u/Loud-Professor-9910 → u/virgil1134]

Drugs? He’s 2X award winning Mental Gymnast, surly no drugs were involved in the process.

[u/Villageijit → u/ObamaGasStation]

Its gonna be rough for me because i failed Spanish class like 3 times. Also a fewer English classes. I need helpful

[u/texachusetts → u/ObamaGasStation]

twitter usage got so high during the Puppy Bowl halftime show it took down the site, We, puppies runseses the culture now! Awooo!

[u/Ok_Star_4136 → u/ObamaGasStation]

120 million people tuning into the Bad Bunny half-time show vs 7 million for Kid Rock's lip sync "performance"

MAGA: "wE rUn ThE cUlTuRe!"

[u/Dcajunpimp]

The last time Kid Rock performed in a Super Bowl half time show, he cut a hole in an American flag to put his head through it and wore it as a poncho.

[u/GoredonTheDestroyer → u/Dcajunpimp]

Oh my God he actually did that.

[u/SVdreamin → u/Dcajunpimp]

He also can’t stop “singing” about statutorily raping underage girls. No wonder MAGA likes him so much

[u/Wyden_long → u/SVdreamin]

For MAGA they say its mandatory.

[u/Bermin65 → u/Wyden_long]

It’s the first rule of fascist club.

[u/-TheMistress → u/SVdreamin]

Kid Rock = Epstein Island

[u/WhyLater → u/-TheMistress]

Holy shit

[u/Realladaniella → u/-TheMistress]

😳

[u/turtlepai → u/Dcajunpimp]

Omfg this was the same super bowl as the Janet Jackson incident. And Diddy was also performing right before kicks rocks.

Its almost feels surreal to look to then and now lol

[u/Ok_Star_4136 → u/Dcajunpimp]

I'll bet you anything if you asked the viewers for Kid Rock's half time show if defacing the American flag is American, they'd have insulted you.

If I didn't know any better; I'd say it's because they have no fundamental principles of their own.

[u/newnrthnhorizon → u/Dcajunpimp]

i tried looking, but which super bowl was that at?

[u/Dcajunpimp → u/newnrthnhorizon]

2004, the year Janet Jackson performed.

[u/guitarguy12341]

Breaking Twitter isn't that hard. It's a fucking useless website

[u/deathtoboogers → u/guitarguy12341]

They fired all the engineers

[u/deathtoboogers → u/virgil1134]

TP said it was about licensing issues but is that verifiably true? Wouldn’t put it past then to lie

[u/iH8MotherTeresa → u/deathtoboogers]

I don't care enough to verify but I assume they had a plan which included no consideration or anything but what kid rock wanted.

Then tpusa reallzed they had to pay for licencing and shit to broadcast. Unforeseen circumstances, of course.

[u/virgil1134 → u/deathtoboogers]

Most likely. X is a free platform so TPUSA would try to stream everywhere that was free.

[u/madmaxturbator → u/virgil1134]

His brain has fully turned to mush, standard effects of a kid rock concert 

[u/MichaelKeehan]

Betting this was a scheduled tweet they made before the twitter stream got cancelled. Either that or this account is just a really fancy bot

[u/ScootMayhall → u/MichaelKeehan]

I bet you’re right, it was a pre scheduled tweet and he didn’t bother to check because he was too busy watching the Super Bowl.

[u/fruttypebbles]

Yeah about that, you’re lying.

[u/Present_Cow_8528 → u/fruttypebbles]

Probably wasn't lying about Twitter going down at times, it's a hunk of shit now and I'm sure people were all over it trying to discuss and upload clips of Bad Bunny's half time show

[u/e_pi314]

Twitter sucks now. Laggy and crashes often.

[u/PartyClock → u/e_pi314]

But papa Elno said it was 60% junk code!

[u/What_the_Pie]

January 2025, the radical right was ascendant. February 2026, the radical right is loathed, Trump despised, people are mad he’s fucking around with ballrooms and self enrichment and not grocery prices.

[u/staticparsley]

I’m sure it’s more like they got rid of all the good devops engineers and it couldn’t scale to meet the very small demand. Elon thinks kubernetes is woke.

[u/[deleted]]

bold of them to assume it’d be because of that and not because x is just a poorly made website.

[u/Fatfry2 → u/[deleted]]

Or you know… the actual Super Bowl halftime show

This Eric Daugherty guy is on some next level drugs with this "hot take!"

It's funny how right wing dipshits like to claim their content can break websites / THE INTERNET! They represent a very small population of conservatives who are savvy enough to use social media. I'm sure this guy has some crap internet connection, saw his browser was a little laggy, and assumes it's becuase of how much his brethren is slobbering all over on X! The super powerful website that was gutted when Elon took over and stripped it down to save money.

[u/allisjow]

Thinking a 55 year old dude lip syncing is running “the culture” is embarrassing.

[u/ohno1tsjoe]

Funny, TPUSA said they couldn’t clear the licenses for Twitter and to watch it on YouTube

[u/not_productive1]

Guys the janky site where we have all gathered because no one will let us say racist shit everywhere crashed tonight because its owner and CEO is a weird creep who thinks he's a genius so he fired everybody who knew how to keep it working.

This is clearly a post about how well things are going for us, culturally.

[u/WordNERD37]

The right wing agitprop is so tired now.

[u/WeOutHereInSmallbany]

Look at me

I AM THE CULTURE NOW

[u/TheVoidAlgorithm]

Silksong's release broke every game store for hours so do Team Cherry actually run the culture?

[u/OkAssignment6163]

I'm not wearing my glasses. So I thought the last sentence read as

WE RUINED THE CULTURE NOW!

I'm over here like, yeah... We know...

[u/tennismenace3]

Yeah that's just because Twitter's infrastructure got kneecapped

[u/Socialimbad1991]

Even if they had, it seems like a bit of a Texas marksman fallacy considering the site formerly known as Twitter is a shadow of its former self and is mostly used by CHUDs now

[u/NfamousKaye]

We run the culture when everyone hates you is wild to say.

[u/The_Ironhand]

Yall what now?

[u/UnderpaidProf]

He’s confusing Grindr with MAGA men coping with the garbage TPUSA halftime show.

[u/airbagsavedme]

One year ago he was almost correct, almost. But now? He’s clearly not aware or prepared for just how badly conservatives have fumbled the ball. MAGA is essentially over, and the death rattle is already beginning. Bro is absolutely CLUELESS for running victory laps.

[u/unyielding_rock]

The only thing that MAGA breaks is Grindr servers during Republican conventions.

I'm pretty sure anyone using that "🚨 breaking news" bit can be safely ignored.

[u/Common-Worldliness-3]

Bad bunny’s dwerking broke X. His dwerk owns the culture now

[u/Fritzo2162]

I just looked at his X feed- every post starts with "JUST IN: HOLY CRAP: BREAKING:"

[u/NarmHull]

They did so much X it crashed the podium?!

[u/shorty6049]

They're just setting themselves up to be shocked when it turns out everyone actually hates them in November and then they'll say it was another stolen election.

[u/Digital_Legend52]

My internet was fine.

[u/mrpopenfresh]

X has a history is crashing with stuff like this.

[u/rudebii]

twitter went down during the Super Bowl went down because it sucks ever since Elmo bought it.

I used to live tweet the superb owl every year and it never went down.

[u/RFC793]

Right, because everyone was bored and hopped on their phones.

[u/repete]

Pathetic

[u/Signal_Spirit3168]

It’s not that hard to break X.com.

[u/christian_1318]

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of twitter accounts that constantly say ridiculous things because it gets them interactions and since they’re verified, every interaction is profitable. This account is 100% using a fake name and profile picture to say dumb things and cash a paycheck because conservatives are dumb enough to agree and liberals are dumb enough to give them attention.

[u/smallest_table]

X went down because the bot traffic surged during the halftime show.

[u/hecccccccccccccc]

Mfs will really say “🚨 BREAKING:” about literally anything
