I mean, you're not going to find a bigger American Idiot..
Or simply a better example of a Basket Case
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.

Left of center punk band shocks conservatives.
Wait until they hear what the living legend Henry Rollins thinks about everything they hold dear 😁✊
You can't believe anything Rollins says, though. He's a liar.
A little out-tearing of minds and burning of souls never hurt anyone 🤷
(Note to the people downvoting the comment above: it's a song reference 😁)
He's also an immortal cannibal.
Who amongst us isn't, though? 🤷
Whenever someone says Greenday isn't punk enough just remember they're making right wingers mad and what's more punk than that?
Honestly, it's not that hard these days.
You mean Dolly Parton and Chick-fil-A aren't punk?
No shade toward Dolly.
Dolly is punk as fuck.
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.
Of course they're not pink. They're green.
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 am once again asking MAGA to die mad about it.
I'm asking for the same thing but three words shorter.
MAGA outraged? Good. Fuck ‘em.
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
Wait till they hear about GWAR.
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.
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.
Yuuup they have been cutting the heads off presidents since like Reagan for their show. First one I saw was for Biden it was well done. 11 out of 10 will see them again. My white shirt is ready
The "just be a decent human being" crowd strikes again
Nah, fuck that noise. You don't get to spend decades insulting people while you trample them underfoot and then demand they be nice to you. Fuck off with that shit.
Has Jack Black tried to cancel them yet?
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.
A good picture to share in your family group
If I was him I'd dox all the losers sending threats over a mask'
Those crybabies get more butthurt than anyone they call snowflake
National treasure, just like Tommy Crooks.
I wanna see the full performance
All the respect in the world to 'em, but I still can't stand to listen to 'em.
