    Green Day used to be anti-establishment, now they are the establishment.

    American Idiot is almost 20 years old and the message hasn’t changed. Do these people just have zero media literacy?

      Yes. They also think Rage Against the Machine “got political”.

      RATM.

          chef’s kiss

          Morello is a crazy talented guitarist and overall nice guy but he’s also really intelligent and educated which tees up idiots for easy humiliation. He rocks in all the ways.

            Tom Morello went to Harvard and got a PoliSci degree.

          Ah, yes. The far away time when “Far Right” just meant ideologically conservative and not the wannabe brownshirts. So long ago, 2012.

          A simpler time.

            Republicans and Wealthy businessmen plotted a Nazi style overthrow of FDR and the US government in the 1930s. Republican Nazis have been a trope and a joke throughout the last 40 to 50 years. I’ll give you this, they went from being quiet and out of sight to front and center.

            There’s a bit of context here…

            Pink Floyd’s The Wall. It’s a fine movie where the metaphor swings between subtle as a shadow’s whisper and blunt force trauma.

            Derivative Angry Video Game Nerd Clone makes a “parody” of it, but misses an incredibly obvious Nazi reference. Which is not a good look as a white skinhead.

            The fact he missed something so plainly obvious makes me laugh, a lot. It so clear he skimmed the movie looking for things to make fun of.
