roach-works:
it’s annoying to see people wondering why emo is back again when the american president is once again a smugly idiotic criminal, the rest of the world seems to be cheerfully dissolving into fascist regimes along with us, and the potential threat of nuclear apocalypse presents a spicy alternative to the guaranteed ruin of global warming, while all the guys in charge are doing about it is getting rich fast off our misery
it’s like i’m fourteen again except this time all my joints hurt. if gen z wants to tear shit up, have stupid hair, and listen to gerard way, i’m all for it.

That they used their stage time to share messages of support and anti-violence, did their damndest to keep us alive, wrote songs about how much discrimination against people based on mental illness furthers the issue. Not to mention incredibly supportive of the LGBT+ community, especially for the time.
stump-wentz:
i find it interesting how quickly we forgot about the political and specifically anti-war the emo movement actually was. 50% of emo bands first albums are explicitly about 9/11. they go on to address military service, ptsd, school shootings…
like it really wasnt so much “im sad bc sad” as “you have soiled our childhoods with violence and we will not allow you to ignore or forget it”
