Video at link. Another overrated hasbeen seeking relevance. This was the same Bono who, during the conflicts in N. Ireland opened a recording studio in Belfast to show solidarity with the locals under the yoke of oppression by the Brits. A year later he quietly closed up the studio and relocated it in Brussels to take advantage of a big tax break. Hey, pretending to save the world and putting on airs about be down for the struggle is one thing, but business is business.

Bono was, is and will always be a warped POS.

30+ years since a good album

But I guess I’ve never made one, I guess I can’t mock people on stage

So I guess this means he’s a fan of rapes and acid attacks.

Bono doesn’t risk ever getting roughed up, spit on, or robbed by migrant youth on Stockholm public transport, either. Unlike many Swedes, Bono is wealthy enough to never have to rub shoulders with those who don’t share his values. His perspective is badly tainted.

What’s the difference between Bono and God?

God doesn’t walk around Dublin thinking that he is Bono...

"The demonization of 'the other' has returned."

He's right. Christians and conservatives are being demonized. They are "deplorables" clinging to their guns and their religion.

Bono’s house in Dublin is surrounded by an eight-foot stone wall with an iron gate.

I saw a U2 concert last summer. Bono started off by saying that we are in a time when there are strong passions on both sides of the political aisle and this was a night to come together without politics getting between us. Cool. By the end he was trashing Trump, running videos of super liberals doing super liberal things, etc. Hypocrite.

I only liked three of U2’s albums ... Achtung Baby, Zooropa, and Pop ... their early stuff is certainly good, but not for me. Everything after Pop sounds like a bunch of outtakes from their early stuff :-).

Anyway, remember when U2 decided to move their “business” from Ireland to the Netherlands to avoid paying taxes on royalties? All of that tax money could have helped those less fortunate ones you know ... these idiots are so full of feces ...

Isn’t stuttering finger-painter George Bush Junior a buddy of Bono’s?

"...The demonizing of ‘the other’ has returned.”

Says Bono as he mocks right-of-center voters with a Nazi salute.

Wanting to stay alive is now called “nazi”? How about the people who want to exterminate the Swedes being called nazi?

Bono is a shill who has now become an aged barnacle. The only thing this crustacean knows about is wearing shades to the disco. Who knew such profundity abounds in Paris!

What a jerk. These people live in their out of touch with society world and because he has a band and fame we’re supposed to listen to his political opinions.

He isn’t Swedish. What business is it of his how the Swedes decide to vote in their own elections?
