Suzanne Harrington: It's a blow when heroes like Morrissey and John Lydon turn out to be idiots

John Lydon has made a career out of offending people, but now he is offending Us, not Them.

Yes indeed
Those Twitter kids have been fed on pop fodder (pig s***) since birth
They would not be able to distinguish art from fart
These kids understand only one thing “Sex” sells
Long on skin short on clothes writhe around and dry hump to meaningless words.
They will do whatever it takes to get shot into the slimelight and if that includes selling their souls so be it.

Kids A Looker springs to mind. Spot on by the way!

It's awful the way people are clumping Lydon and M together. Really awful and entirely preventable.

It’s entirely welcome: two greats.

John Lydon is NOT great. He's a middle class man who became moderately famous for his willingness to participate in a marketing project, and who later became VERY wealthy after marrying a German heiress. PIL were just OK.

Brilliant live though, love the way entered the stage at Brixton.

Good golly, hope no-one noticed the union flagged drum set & the st. george flag displays...tut tut!!

Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?
If you want to be mad at Morrissey I can understand that but everything John Lydon has done has been consistent and he could tell you why he did it. Everyone's bothered that he wore a Trump shirt and I hate Trump too, but remember he also wore swastikas. Do you think he's a Nazi?

Fake C are you going up a "do you think hes a Nazi?" thread?

 

[gashonthenail]

Who the f*** has Lydon down as one of their heroes? Or Morrissey, come to that.

Or one of their anti-heroes? The reverse of hero worship is just as perverse.

Lydon banned on the BBC in 1978; for exposing Jimmy Savile.
That’s not too shabby

Really? Do you have links to back this up, or indeed other evidence. Genuine question, I had no idea.

I read Irish Examiner, Irish Post and Irish Echo (NYC) and believe me or not, S.H is a dull writer, let alone a journalist. Amazed they employ her. Guess she’s freelance, penny a word lol.

The guy is angry but at least he’s honest
And Who Killed Bambi is the best.

No - you said he'd been banned by the BBC or the reasons you gave, and nothing you posted evidences this. He may have said stuff, but where's the evidence he was banned by the BBC for it?

 

[Mz Understood]

Look up the interview by price for my organ (use your imagination)
I’m not posting it cos he’s not worth it.
