The owner of X, formerly Twitter, and billionaire Elon Musk offered a harsh takeaway of the pop-rock band green day’s decision to bash MAGA supporters during its New Year’s Eve performance.
Musk responded to a report on the performance by Not the Bee on X, stating, “green day goes from raging against the machine to milquetoastedly raging for it.”
The band changed the lyrics in its song “American Idiot” to “I’m not a part of the MAGA agenda” while performing on “Ryan Seacrest’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve.”
Despite green day’s continued opposition to what they consider “idiots,” the band’s ability to relate to common everyday Americans was questioned by other X users.
Rapper Hi-Rez offered a lengthy understanding of perception, stating, “I actually remembered the original line in their song said ‘I’m not a part of the redneck agenda.’”
“I, at 30 years old only recently realized how stereotyped the southern redneck American has been for decades,” he continued.
He then went on to praise their “patience” and continued trust in “God’s plan.”
Hi-Rez also noted, “I realized later in my life after making many redneck friends that these people are probably the nicest in the whole country TO ALL RACES.”
He concluded that this is, “Unlike most of these major city dwellers that ACT virtuous but are just virtue signaling most of the time.”
green day is known for touring mainstream mall stores like Hot Topic, wearing eyeliner, and being anti-war despite bashing Former President Donald Trump, who negotiated peace in the Middle East (via the Abraham Accords) during his term in office.
Best Selling author Nick Adams posted, “green day hasn’t been relevant in decades.”
ACT for America Founder and CEO Brigitte Gabriel wrote, “Who is green day and why should I care about their political opinions?”
Therapist, law mediator, and military veteran Dr. Rich Palazzolo also asked, “Who the hell is green day?”
