Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Green Day changes lyrics to shade Donald Trump during TV performance

Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong altered “American Idiot” lyrics from "I'm not a part of a redneck agenda" to "I'm not a part of the MAGA agenda."

It’s not the first time the band has taken jabs against the politician. Their first major performance of the anti-MAGA version happened in 2019 at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas, according to Billboard. Before that, at the 2016 American Music Awards, the band yelled "No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA" during a performance of the song "Bang Bang."

Elon Musk is beefing with Green Day for slamming MAGA in their latest rendition of 'American Idiot'

:crybaby:
Elon is the self appointed pulse of the American people. :roll:
Green Day has long made overt political statements, such as in 2016, when the band coined the "No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA" slogan at the American Music Awards.

Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”
