        To be totally fair to Drumph, he hasn’t had a guest spot on “My 600 lb Life,” yet. There are clearly bigger American Idiots out there. He can’t even be the biggest idiot, especially with those tiny baby hands.

      Fucking right wingers, freaking out over a Halloween mask.

      If you’re going to tell me it’s a severed head, there better be a bloody stump at the bottom.

        It’s a pretty typical part of their style. Often they’re wearing ties. Sometimes even a suit.

        Is this middle school? What’s a shirt matter? Most shows I’ve been to the band is wearing the most basic shit while they are going wild

      I used to be pretty anti green day because they weren’t pink enough. The last few news articles I’ve seen they’ve really embodied punk in my eyes. I may not enjoy their older music but I’m loving what they stand for today.

        American Idiot?

        Minority?

        They weren’t exclusively anti establishment but they definitely let their opinions be known.

        They’re “not punk enough” in that they make a lot of money. They’ve “sold out” as people would say. I somewhat get the argument of “you aren’t punk if you participate in their system” but also we’re living under capitalism and everyone has to deal with it somehow.

    So… Trump calls people stupid, then his supporters are up in arms when the guy is called an idiot. Okay?

    Sorry, MAGA. You’re not going to Kathy Griffin Green Day. They aren’t attempting to be some sort of mainstream act you can watch on Good Morning America.

    I’m outraged that their followers want to kill politicians for real and have been making pretty credible attempts to do so

    We all have, I guess, our pet peeves

      I really do not like metal at all, but I saw a GWAR show for free at DragonCon in the 1990s and it was absolutely amazing. I don’t know that I would go again myself, but it’s a terrific show even if you’re not a fan of the music.

        This is true for a good number of metal bands.

          I can imagine. My wife said the same thing in the same era when she took her little brother to see Rammstein.

        You should see a modern show by Ghoul. Gwar probably did it “better,” but Ghoul is keeping it fun.

      Seeing as they didn’t call for actual violence, checks notes they haven’t been in a band together for many years, and the only definition of “cancelling” this would meet is of a trumper’s, I’m going to say “no”.

    accusations of being disrespectful?

    for some reason, and im not sure why, i smell irony, and whole lot of it. Can’t quite put my finger on it though.
