I'm done talking about those punks.

I am a Republican, Supporter of our President a Mother of two teen sons. If that was one of my sons standing in that maga hat disrespecting that man, I would be absolutely humiliated and there would be consequences in my home.

What is this 'school spirit' thing? We hear a lot about it on American High School sit coms like prom and yearbook but...what is it?

Stop you loons, just stop.

A racist spirit.?

You posted this three hours ago? How long has it been since this blackface story was debunked? Are you even aware of it? You should be removed from Twitter and your magazine should go bankrupt.

School spirit? They do know that their mascot is an old white guy right? How ironic!

So are these kids . . .

I guess that's not entirely false. So far, I've seen multiple videos of them, showing exactly what their 'school spirit' is like. 🤔

It was a blackout game Newsweek. Give it up.

Are the any adults at this school?

Seriously media can you stop. It’s okay to be wrong.

Ya, just showing racist school spirit We get it

Hey Newsweek, let’s talk about those foul-mouthed racists, the “Hebrew Israelites” or Native American Nick’s years in Viet Nam, ok? We get your message that Trump hats = KKK. Grow up.

This.

Already debunked. Barnes_Law

Nice attempt at changing he narrative...it failed but nice try.

This is inaccurate reporting. You are going to get these kids killed Where is the outrage against black israelite and American Indian activist who tried to intimidate and provoke. Get your f***ing facts right.

That’s the truth, ever heard of blackout game?

It wasn’t blackface. It was blackout. Everything was black, all clothes, shows, faces. But blackface fits the racist narrative much more....

Sure, downplaying things is so normalised.

Literally a blackout game. We should just ban the color black to avoid racism

Well, newsweek wasnt much in the way of net worth anymore anyway. I guess they dont need to fear the lawsuits.

So they just don’t realize they are little shits, ok, all is forgiven.

Of course they were just showing 'school spirit' when they donned blackface. In a way that they should have known was unacceptable. In a way that should have shocked and saddened their adult mentors. But hey. Apparently, some schools are different.

Oh so their school spirit is racism. Got it.

What kind of school spirit would that be?

And the hits just keep on coming from Covington. What's next, a play about the happy lives of slaves in the 1840s?
