Full Rolling Stone article

Breitbart synopsis

quote:

Bono said Trump’s election marked, “for the first time in many years, maybe in our lifetime, the moral arc of the universe, as Dr. King used to call it, was not bending in the direction of fairness, equality and justice for all.”

“The baseness of political debate, the jingoism, the atavistic fervor of Trump’s verbiage reminded us that we were dreaming if we thought evolution applied to consciousness,” the “With or Without You” singer said. “Democracy is a blip in history and it requires a lot of focus and concentration to keep it intact.”

What's the difference between God and Bono?





God doesn't think he's Bono.

When does Bono win the "Taking Yourself Way Too Seriously" award?

I like how when it comes to Islamic terror, Bono's motto is "we can't become a monster in order to defeat a monster".

But when it comes to a healthy pinch of American nationalism for the first time in 30 years, he's all "this changes the moral arc of the universe. It's unsurvivable."

I was force fed their abortion of an album on iTunes a few years ago and still haven't gotten rid of that farce recorded during the high moral Obama arc.

Bono is everything South Park says he is and more.

I'm still stunned that he didn't blame President Trump for cancelling their St. Louis show.

Just one more reason to like Trump. Maybe I'll care if U2 ever makes music that doesn't suck. I prefer my rock music to have balls. The pop crap they put out is for girls & homos.

Bono and his ilk acting like battling Trump is the the defining moment of their lives is simply an overreaction to the election loss.

Shut the frick up and keep singing your songs, Bono. You aren't as important as you think.

Well if the moral arc is disrupted, what is a man to do?

all because someone he doesn't agree with got elected in a country he is not a citizen of

Leftists are weak as shite, which probably explains why they are so vile when they do grab power
