3 yearsIts funny, reading this post outloud to a friend and his reaction was “if Green Day doesn’t support Trump’s campaign then I don’t anymore.” He was serious too. Sometimes the dumbest things can change someones mind.
Reminds me of Tom Morello’s response to Paul Ryan claiming his favorite band was RATM.
I wonder what Ryan’s favorite Rage song is? Is it the one where we condemn the genocide of Native Americans? The one lambasting American imperialism? Our cover of “Fuck the Police”? Or is it the one where we call on the people to seize the means of production? So many excellent choices to jam out to at Young Republican meetings!

Maybe he’s right.
Billie Joe has been married to the same woman for more than 30 years. That’s a lot more family value than the MAGA idol ever managed in any of his several marriages.
Green Day also didn’t encourage people to attack the Capitol, unlike the “patriot” MAGA idiots.
It’s a low bar, but Green Day is a lot more respectful and respectable, even by their own definitions.
That’s a lot more family value than the MAGA idol ever managed in any of his several marriages.
Is MAGA US version of United Russia? And MAGA idol US version of Putin?

Billie Joe Armstrong: Strong advocate for monogamy and heterosexual marriage.
Taylor Swift: Serial dater. Pegs exclusively.

Also Billie Joe: Openly bisexual since 1995. Love the one you’re with. That’s literally the only thing that matters.

Unless in a polycule… In that case I think it’s something like “do your best to make sure everyone is doing okay, feeling loved and supported and frequent check ins for consent are done.”
It’s too socially complicated for me but if you can make it work then what turns your crank ain’t none my bizznizz…

Green day is still considered punk? Or is that part of the joke? (Serious question)

Nah it’s pretty well defined - no, greenday is no longer straight up punk. Pop punk rock would probably fit them better now.

Satire is based in reality. They genuinely are pissed at green day, and politicians have walked out to RATM unironically.
Yeah. Nazi punks have to exist for “nazi punks fuck off” to make any sense. Keeping that shit out isn’t really a once and done kind of thing, unfortunately.

People have said so much insane shit over the years that it is genuinely becoming harder and harder to tell what is being said sarcastically and what is not
