nambis Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Why all the negativity about the "Live n' let die with Covid 45" t-shirt? Y'all need to relax a bit. This is an obvious reference to the recent trip Trump made to the mask factory, where he was the only person in the room not wearing a mask, and handling/breathing all over the new masks that were being made while Live n' Let Die was blaring in the background. The irony was hilarious. I can't believe so many of you are shitting on this - take your panties out of a bunch. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AncientEvil80 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Seriously? Fuck this band right now. And what's Axl's beef with Trump anyway? If anything, the dude is definitely more active against pedophiles than any of his predecessors... thought Axl would care a bit about that? I'm not a US citizen, I couldn't care less about US politics/politicians... they're all pieces of shit at the end of the day. But man, seeing this kind of cheap political antics forced on the glorious musical past of a band like GNR sure is pissing me off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking unbelievable. Ya know, my mom always taught me that "hate" is a very strong word. She used to remind me that strongly disliking something and hating something are too completely different things. I truly hate that this is what GNR has become. I've always appreciated the rough edges of the original incarnation. And I don't have the energy to really feel one way or another about the band over the last 20 years. But this breaks my heart. How could they be so mean spirited. So spiteful. So tone-deaf. It reeks of petulance and short sightedness. I'm embarrassed as a fan. They missed the mark on this one. By a mile. Holy fuck. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Comstock Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 It's kind of impressive... just when you think this band couldn't be more tone-deaf, Fernandon't proves there is no end to his stupidity. What an absolutely fucking retarded thing for them to do. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt anyone in the band other than maybe Axl giving a slight nod of approval has any idea this even exists.

Axl_morris Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Put this out to 30m on Facebook plus other platforms. How many have friends and family dying/fighting for there lives in intensive care unit, just to political point score. They might not like trump but scapegoating him for it is nonsensical. Every country is suffering. 1 minute ago, James Bond said: Can we make our own t-shirt? A spin on the "Fernandon't" thing? "Other bands do what Fernandon't."

They're commenting on Trump's position that the economy should re-open despite the pandemic, which will put tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of lives at risk. He toured a mask factory with "Live n' Let Die" playing in the background, which is ironic because that's basically his attitude. I can't believe people here don't get that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No....the intent of the shirt is to attempt to make fun of Trump while at the same time making light of tens of thousands of people dying. The last part isn't intentional of course, but that's beside the point because that's not how it's going to be perceived. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
