@commonrevolt: The fan reactions to My Chemical Romance’s performance at Hollywood Bowl is proof we’re in a media literacy crisis. Their “Long Live The Black Parade” shows are winding down, with some fans now realizing the political undertones of their overall stage show. The Los Angeles concert featured new merch, cheerleaders, a PowerPoint presentation, and a confirmation of new MCR music.

People saying that MCR hasn’t been speaking up about politics is crazy. This tour has been going on since last year and every show has made it so obvious that this tour is very political

And the sad part is, their message and performances are so obvious that you have to make an effort not to get it 😭

MCR was born out of the sadness and outrage of 9/11. It's always been like this. I don't understand how people think they're anything but this? I'm so confused about it.

In other news Rage Against The Machine is apparently against the machine. Has anyone else heard this? Is it true?

Here’s the problem - I’m a Gen xer (elder emo, lol) 1984, Anjmal Farm, F451 , The Handmaids Tale, Brave New World were REQUIRED reading for us. They are not only not taught - they are literally BANNED in many schools and public libraries

I am deeply concerned about the state of literacy or lack there of in this nation. I don’t know how much more explicit they could possibly be.

It’s like people forget the origins of the band and that Frank was investigated by the secret service in 2008 for his solo work…like they’ve been this political forever

people when gerard executes someone and says “thank you for participating in democracy” afterwards and it’s set up for us to eventually realize there is no possible way to save the people they are forced to execute: this could mean anything. // people when they force an american flag onto it: Hey hey hold on a minute

I was just talking about this earlier with my friends. Their messaging and their stance on politics is RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE!! I’m genuinely worried about the state of our country when it comes to literacy.

I picked up on this when they first introduced the dictator into the lore. I'm shocked it took people this long to notice and now theyre misunderstanding it when they do...

the fact they started to put a powerpoint presentation and people still didn't get it is hilarious. they could've just said it outright and people would still be confused

My girlfriend and I went to one of the concerts and the next morning ran into some other attendees at our hotel and one of them said that "the whole thing was like a cult and I'm not sure what it was about but it was cool I guess" and that was really the final nail in the coffin for me. the teens are paying money to travel and see performance art that they do not understand, it's wild
