What a bunch of snowflakes.
I chuckled heartily earlier today when I saw a post on the front page of the R-word site that was posted to the conservative sub. It was a picture of the band holding up a mask of Trump with idiot written on it and a title along the lines of “After Trump assassination attempt, Green Day holds up head of Donald Trump”.
Literally, it was just a mask of Trump with something like “Idiot” written on it from a band that quite literally is known for criticizing the government (understatement).
They were making it sound like it was an implicit threat to Trump and hateful rhetoric inciting further violence.
I swear there must be some brain damage involved in those types of conclusions.
Methinks this moron started the pearl clutching:
Meanwhile there were several effigies of Obama with a noose around their necks
no no no, you see that was just a metaphor for states rights.
And of course they love The Boss’s Born in the USA.
Oh no
"Since when did punk rock talk about politics "
Ummmm… pretty sure that’s a defining point.
Says the party who dances to rage against the machine while literally fighting for the machine
New band idea: Rage for the machine, a band for moody conservatives who like licking boots
Kid Rock has entered chat.
A “severed head”? Jeez, where are these people’s minds at?
So Green Day does the most Green Day thing ever and the MAGA crowd loses their minds. Who are the snowflakes again?
Oh do conservatives not like a bisexual man singing about how bush is a war criminal anymore?
Wtf were they expecting? Like, it’s green day, they’ve always been pretty forward about their politics, and it’s been in the lyrics the entire time.
Seriously. I don’t even listen to Green Day, and even I know that this isn’t new territory for them. Did these people not know about American Idiot and who that was about?
Pretty much, yeah. They’re American idiots lol.
It’s almost like they have never actually looked at the lyrics of a green day song.
Snowflakes. There’s nothing too petty to get their blogosphere fired up and pissing themselves everywhere.
Awww. Cry
ROFL!! Apparently the folks complaining haven’t actually ever listened to Green Day. Though the severed Trump head at the concert was probably a bit much.
I went to a green day concert before trump was even president and they had the crowd cheering that line, its not new. They were awesome by the way.
It was a mask, “severed trump head” is an extreme and inaccurate description.
maga chuds live on extreme and inaccurate descriptions.
Maybe they’re confusing the mask with the Kathy Griffin photo from years back?
Again, they did exactly this last new year.

Never ceases to amaze me when “fans” of a band appear to completely ignore their lyrics. Are these people who only know “Longview” and “Time of your Life?”
They don’t want to hear him they just want to dance
I loved when Republicans were screaming at rage against the machine to stop making political music, like… what machine do you think they’re raging against? The mcdonalds icecream machines?
I’ve had times in my life where I’m oblivious to lyrics, and times when I’m really tuned in to them. So I can see how people get carried along with the music regardless of the lyrics.
It’s still funny when people make realizations like this though.
Cause the Hooooook brings you baack
Yes.
Love bands that just put it out there
Otep - Kult45
Slipknot - We Are Not Your Kind
