I don't have a problem with it. I disagree with a whole bunch of his shit, but I don't care that he said it, particularly since his speaking engagement was through invitation.
I do think it's pretty fucking weird to spit poison about politics (Biden, gays, COVID) at a graduation. I'm fine with him championing building strong families and giving advice to the young men and women about being great parents and faithful parishioners, but you throw in a few lines about "Here's what's wrong with this country!!!!" and you're gonna get a giant eye roll from me. And yes, I have the exact same reaction to graduation speakers who might go on a tirade about conservative causes or politicians. It's a graduation, not a goddamn political rally. Make it 100% about the individuals receiving the diplomas, not about yourself.
I like Harry because he's really good at kicking footballs really accurately for my favorite football team the Kansas City Chiefs. But that's about the sum of it. He should also remember that Colin Kaepernick chose to do his anthem protests during a season when he wasn't playing well. If he were playing like a great QB, the team wouldn't have cut him. Harry just had one of the best seasons for a kicker in NFL history, so he's got a ton of leeway with delivering speeches that large groups of people are going to find objectionable. But if he has another year like 2022, he miiiight want to consider toning it down just a tad.

Attacking marginalized groups is Republican Voter Base Building 101, and I believe it's almost a certainty that this hateful bigot seeks some sort of public office.

In response... you guys bump an older Butker thread and continue the shennanigans.
My hand would be cramping after all the thread bans and rompering.
It needed to be rompered or DC'd...
A certain mod lives for this shit. Loves to let things get out of hand merely to exert power and ban people from threads. Especially those who have a different opinion from his and his disciples. He can't help it, it's just his way.
