I read that, and it was interesting... but it's odd for them to talk about how U2 confronted the fans with uncomfortable images about the reality of America today, and how MacPhisto addressed many of the issues regarding the border and blah blah blah... but OMG they're too subtle cause Bono didn't call Trump an asshole from stage.
Like... I get not everyone is a fan of the word compromise around here. But I don't think confronting American crowds with these images and presenting them with alternative images is a bad thing.
Yeah. Also, all the messages U2 are 'showing' during their show in general are too subtle. But that one time Bruce Springsteen said something before playing a different song (The Ghost Of Tom Joad) from his usual Broadway setlist or that one time someone from Drive-By Truckers said something in some magazine does count as being outspoken!
The whole article comes off a bit like looking for a stick to hit the band, only because the band hasn't set themselves on fire.
