Green Day drew controversy among conservatives during their first U.S. gig this week after changing a lyric to anti-MAGA.

    So they changed it from redneck to MAGA, and you felt fucking called out? They wrote a fucking ALBUM about how subsets of america are dooming everyone else during the Bush administration and you didn’t fucking realize Green Day doesn’t like conservativism and you went to their concerts and bought their music? Man WHAT THE FUCK ARE YALL OFFENDED BY!? THIS IS WHO GREEN DAY IS. THIS IS WHO THEY’VE ALWAYS BEEN. THIS IS WHAT they’ve ALWAYS STOOD FOR.

      Lindsay Ellis did a really good video about how Green Day were the first ones to break America out of the jingoistic fever and into Bush-era protest music without the backlash that many others in the past felt (including Dixie Chicks).

          In a way, this makes Dixie’s Chicks’ stance even braver

            And how you gotta stand up to Him? What the fuck does that even mean? All their songs are about how “hey, you can’t just be telling people how to live like that. People are individuals with thoughts and ideas AND ALSO YES FARTS ARE FUNNY AND I’M TIRED OF PRETENDING LIKE THEY AREN’T”

                Certain crowds can’t fathom being any different from how you were raised up because They’re too scared of being their authentic selves
