I don’t think it’s racist to not enjoy something you’re unfamiliar with. And I worry that labeling stuff that isn’t racism as racism waters down what racism actually is.

I didn’t really like the halftime show, but that’s because it’s not the kind of thing I usually listen to. I didn’t dislike it, it was just kind of…neutral to me. I’m guessing if I knew the tracks I would’ve enjoyed it more.

I did like the set design. It was pretty cool.

Had it been country music I would’ve actively disliked it.

The difference is that you're not calling it "DEI", highlighting the fact that you just use that as a substitute for the n word, considering that all the performers were black and there was no diversity there.

I'm just going by what I'm reading online but to me it seems like a fair assumption that the people crying "DEI", and who didn't mind being in the same company as neo-nazis when it came to who they were supporting politically, are probably racist.
