Clearly the responses to your comment saying 'what a legend' are from 12 to 13 year olds who know nothing about responsibility or parenting. (EDIT) NOTE BEFORE YOU MENTION ME, IT'S BEEN ELEVEN MONTHS. Then: 1. I am not against having fun by any means. And 2. I know sensored music sounds terrible because I've listened to many like the sensored version of DMX's song 'What You Bitches Want From A Nigga' that goes like 'What you chickens want from a (blurred)' it's completely unenjoyable, it's an attrocious catastrophe. What I've been arguing against here from the very beginning is the praising of an adult as a hero for giving a child something against the consent of their loving parents who have gone beyond providing food, shelter, and education for their child to affording them the luxury of enjoying art, be it sensored or not. It's just a basic principle.

Little did anyone know that when this song came out in 2004, it was heralding the modern American life.

seems like if a candidate runs on misogyny, racism, homophobia or any form of hatred and bigotry they'll always win, because people are still too dumb to understand that when they divide us, they conquer us all. americans want to believe they're the exception to authoritarianism ruining their lives because they so loyally and eagerly lower themselves to lick those same boots, thinking it will save them. anything that makes them feel closer to power, because much like the rest of the world, Americans are tired, sick, and frustrated, but aren't educated enough to understand the solution isn't coddling up to evil, powerful men, but rather to topple them over completely and re-build the system from the ground up; a system that favors real, suffering, hardworking people over the billionaires and corporations ruining our planet. but propaganda is propaganda for a reason.

It's a good example of how decades of high-status living corrupts people and deadens their minds, even people who formerly were strong critical thinkers. It's interesting to imagine the Green Day of 2004 meeting the current Green Day and seeing what they've become. I'm pretty sure they'd be disgusted.

It's incredible to arrive here and read so many comments similar to everything I feel about green day. The love for them is alive, old and forever. It's beautiful to see what music itself does in our lives. What would my life be without music? I have no idea. I wouldn't be who I am, I wouldn't be me without green day. American Idiot for me is very important because it was the first CD I ever bought. It was all very important, the songs on this album formed my personality. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Yeah, there's nothing more punk rock then playing a gig sponsored by Pfizer and Blackrock. What a bunch of simps. Way to rage with machine there guys.

ok imagine this you study for a big test and Bernie sanders is your teacher. You got an a and poor little billy got an f. Bernie has guts to tell you that since billy got an f he is going to split your grade because it would not be "fair". And, if you complain he will call you ingorant and be on the opposite side. He will do that with your OWN money you worked hours for. And where is the other half of your money going to?? The lazy people who do nothing and get decent money from what others do. So in my opinion no, Bernie would not be fit to be president even if he was elected but us non supporters would get over ourself.

[@DLYoung-bu5ui]

Tess Ague It is sad when the less fortunate, those down on their luck, or just scraping by are deemed "lazy". You showcase the number one problem with America: the complete and utter lack of compassion for your fellow citizen. As one who works for a living, and supports a family, I also understand that I only truly succeed when WE ALL succeed. The rhetoric of the right has always been one of condemnation of those who do not prosper, while elevating those who have means. And all the American people did with this past election is shoot that idiotic idea full of steroids.

[@tessague5305]

I agree with you and I now realize my idea was very hurtful. I am sorry for being over my head. I understand that some people has bad timing with their luck but some people do it knowing that they don't do any work but still get rewarded. I know that this is a bad example but Donald trump got a loan from his father that was a million. Yes, it seems like a lot but the bills from everything takeover. But, He did have to pay his father in return. He was unfortunate at that time but soon after got on his feet. I now realize that was a hurtful comment and i am sorry. Have a nice day. -Tess
