Since you asked I will clarify for everyone's benefit.

This thread is for Green Day Instagram photos. That means:
1. Photos posted by members of Green Day
2. Photos that have members of Green Day/something to do with Green Day in them

This thread is NOT for
1. Photos of the band's family members that don't have the band in them
2. Photos posted by the band's family members that don't have the band in them
3. Most importantly, speculating about the band's family members and personal lives - this is not allowed in any thread on GDC

GDC is for discussing a band and their music. It isn't for discussing the band's family members and private lives. That isn't going to change, so if you want to do that simply do it somewhere else.

Thanks a lot for this rule review! While we’re at the topic of explaining, can I ask which one of these rules did I break? I’d like to know so that I can not do it again in the future.

Well so our post was okay then because we were talking about Britt stories that has Mike in it and her stupid thought about covid

 

If it was a story with Mike in it the story would be allowed to be posted yeah. That doesn't mean it's OK to start discussing Brittney/their personal lives. Is that clearer? Like I said it's not going to change so there's no point in debating it. This isn't going to be the place to discuss Mike's family member's opinions on vaccines or to guess/speculate about Mike's opinions on them.

Continuing the Brittney discussion.

I don't want to continue to drag this out after Alissa asked for it to stop. Just wanted to clarify the rules of the thread since it was asked about.

Oh okay, thanks.  Sorry about that. I’m going back to talking about Billie being a poor little meow meow, since that’s all I care about regarding this band.

I agree with @Beerjeezus and give me points if you want but I think we should be able to give a viewpoint on this. Brit is literally keeping Mike from being with the other guys because he's having to make a choice between them and her, and it greatly affects the band. So if she posts about being with Mike while pretty much everyone else in Green Day's orbit is in London, I think it's very relevant.

Jason Freese posted a story of a puppy riding a rooster. And the second clip is hilarious. He posts great stuff!

You do realize that vax misinfo is not allowed on Instagram right? You (and anyone else) are free to report such things on that platform and they will get taken down and then you won't have to worry about it influencing others. Mike obviously is vaxxed or he would not have been able to go on tour. And given "Respirator" from the Network album, I think the band's views on anti-mask/anti-vax folks are pretty clear LOL. I agree that a conversation about vaccines is very worthy (probably in the coronavirus thread), but what people who are not members of the band do is not relevant here, and trying to make the band guilty by association is not fair.

To keep things on topic, here are some Instagram pics of Kevin DJing that I don't think anyone posted yet.

How you got from my post that I was pointing fingers at the band is a complete mystery. My point was the opposite of that but please don't make another multi paragraph response to this. Our opinions are known. And my opinion is that Brit is a very real threat to the cohesion of Green Day right now, mostly because of Mike's adoration of her and his being stuck between her choices and those of the band. It's quite obvious that this is the case.

Literally how this fanbase looks after the last few pages.

Let me explain again: it's not just speculating about GD's family members that isn't allowed, it's speculating about the personal lives of the band members themselves as well. You don't know these people, you don't know Mike's thoughts or reasons for doing or not doing anything, you don't know what goes on between Mike and his wife. The point of this thread is to comment on instagram photos that GD post or have GD in them and the point of this forum is to talk about the band and their music. Not to use their instagram activity or lack of activity to try and work out where the band members are and what they're doing at all times and why, and not to guess about the their personal lives and family members.

This isn't because I or other mods have a different opinion on the dumbness of anti vaxxers or have speculated differently about Mike's personal business (we don't/haven't), it's simply because this type of discussion never has and never will be allowed on GDC. We don't make an exception because someone related to a band member posts dumb things on instagram. Stop speculating about Mike's personal life please.

The picture of Jason and the koala is so cute! Koalas are evolutionary disasters and I think they are weird, but Jason looks so happy! It's adorable.

I think Hermione explained it a lot better than I can. And my post was one paragraph LOL. No, I am not accusing you of accusing the band of anything. But this whole convo has turned into assumptions about what the band thinks based on what someone connected to them thinks, most of which are not very flattering. We don't know what's in anyone's heads, so we don't have a right to make assumptions about it. And problematic content on Instagram should be dealt with on Instagram, not here because complaining about it here isn't solving anything. Anyway, I see no need for there to be conflict about this; everyone is entitled to their opinion; this just isn't the place for discussing people's personal lives.

Throwback Tre (love the jeans and the thiccness):
