Do you seriously think that Bruce Springsteen hoping for decency, civility, and a common set of values is really a tacit endorsement of white supremacy?
Seriously?
No, seriously?
I might need a break from Twitter.
Nattering nabobs of negativity are making me lose my mind.

Everyone is talking about “the church.” I’m as Jewy as they come and I don’t remember a church in the commercial. I don’t speak for anyone but myself, but it did not trigger me as being pro-Christian or anti-religious pluralism.
Furthermore, in no way am I diminishing anyone’s right to feel what they feel. I’m simply arguing that diminishment or marginalization was no one’s intent.
You may disagree with me. But I’m not going to apologize for not being more outraged by a fucking Jeep commercial.

Listen folks, I usually can find anti-Semitic tropes anywhere. I saw the ad once, it didn’t bother me. My hero was in an ad. He was preaching a gentle message of civility & common purpose. And I was mostly excited because I have a jacket like his. That’s what registered with me.
No offense, but have some of you never seen an American car commercial?
They’re historically filled with jingoistic, chauvinistic tropes.
You may have been been triggered by the religious/ heartland imagery.
But this was one of the least jingoistic/ chauvinistic spots I recall
