Last night, Kendrick Lamar performed for the Super Bowl halftime show. His current hit song 'Not Like Us' is widely understood to be a 'diss' track aimed at another artist, Drake. Kendrick makes some shocking claims in this song and even brought two of Drake's exes out last night (Serena Williams and Sza) to really put some sting on the burn. Here is the whole performance for those who missed. it.

Now, there was definitely some naysayers about the performance, but those people mostly just found it boring.

Yikes!
Kendrick Lamar brought the house down tonight in his half time performance! I loved his song selection and the production was amazing! Sza sounded great and I loved seeing my friend Serena Williams and my good friend Samuel L. Jackson as “Uncle Sam”!

To be fair, Magic liked the show. It really was a matter of taste, but leave it to the 'ladies' of the 'The View' to make it about racism.
ABC News's Ana Navarro claims "today Donald Trump is going to sign an executive order banning black people from [the Super Bowl] halftime [show]."

If it hurts to be stupid, Ana must be on constant pain killers. She has one trick and it is to find racism anywhere she looks.
Staunchly racist Sunny Hostin declares: "With all these attacks on diversity, all these attacks on African Americans, it was so nice to see black excellence..."

She also hints that if you didn't "get" Kendrick Lamar's performance you just weren't smart enough. pic.twitter.com/v0RXgLF2pT
Then, the cherry on top was Sunny (the least bright person alive so her name is a huge misnomer) joining in. According to Sunny, if you didn't see all the racist dog whistles she uncovered, you are just not as smart as her. Whatever!
Modern day court jesters. Laughter is the best response.

Absolutely! That's why we love to mock them here at 'Twitchy'.
I didn't get it because I couldn't understand a single word he said.

Sunny is the consummate antiracist racist pushing racism.
