the details (via Variety Magazine):
Kyle Gass, true heart of the poster, put the tenacious in tenacious d, Jack Black, true pants of the pisser, put the money in his mouth and his whole ass in front of the camera
imagine ending a lucrative partnership/long term friendship over someone disliking the same guy as you, but a little more
honestly really repellent behavior
It also makes all their other “edgy” humor just seem conpletely cringe.
They make fun of pearl clutches getting mad at rock music because it’s the devil so made rock songs about the devil and rocks but if somebody says something mean about a fascist that’s a bridge to far.
Jack Black would rather still be in kung-fu panda 27, instead of being tethered to a guy who pulled a kathy lee griffin by going in too hard on trump for civility-minded people.
what kathy griffin did was significantly cooler and more hardcore! that’s part of what makes it so gutless; this is basically a nothing statement that literally billions of people would casually agree with and it’s being treated as if gass came out and said “i am a full-fledged neo-nazi, i have killed before and i will kill again, a very special thank you to my boy jack for making it all possible!” it’s so far beyond ridiculous.
“Such a comment is too incivil”
😤
Jack Black definitely agrees, he’s just a hyper careerist with a very manicured public persona. These people believe in their careers above all, and that’s what this is about. All PR.
He probably has enough money to live on for the rest of his life without working again if he wanted to. At that point, you either have principles or you don’t and Jack Black clearly doesn’t.
Apparently he has $50 million.
Ah, enough that he, his children, his grandchildren, and his great-grandchildren need never work a day in their lives.
Apparently if you buy 1$ million worth of state bonds, the yearly payout will be about equal to a teacher’s salary (depending on the type of bond of course). That’s not a lot, but it’s enough to live on in a lot of places. He can buy that fifty times.
sure, but this is how rich people are.
It’s time he stopped LARPing at being a rock star if he wants to be family friendly G-rated celeb
And yet, completely par for a rock star.
oooooh trust me, i know it. i spent my teens/early 20s around college town musicians
the disgusting shit most of them routinely did makes this look like a downright heroic way to spend your time in comparison
I know, right? You’ve known each other for years, this is completely tame.
Kyle Gass just said what half the US was thinking
Half the world.
a lot more than half of the world tbh
The vast majority of his audience fwiw. If you’re familiar their on-stage dynamic, its totally in character for Gass to say something like that nonchalantly and have Black wildly over-react.
So many people outing themselves as people who won’t pull the fucking trigger if they can travel back in time to kill Hitler.
You guys need to vote way harder for Hindenburg or things are going to get real bad!
uh, can I borrow the keys to the time machine? I’ll be right back after I provide indigenous Americans in circa 1490 with vaccines for European diseases and warnings about subsequent European crimes if their colonies are allowed to spread unchecked
You can have it after I give the Gauls, Celts, Scythians, and Germanic tribes the means to stop the Romans and avoid the spread of Christianity. I haven’t thought it thru a lot, but I wanna see a world without the weird Roman view of women being the dominant one. Also wanna see what cool religions we could get if the pagan ones hadn’t been squashed before they could be written down.
My main idea is guns and potatoes, but that’s gonna have some repercussions I’m not fan ofI’d go back in time to replace Adam and Eve with Adam and Steve
Sounds gay (approving)
Hitler was a vegetarian artist. If history made him into a fascist leader it was inevitable. It would have been any other person there.
What you gotta go is give him a how to draw book so he gets into art school.
Tutoring young Hitler on perspective to establish global Communism
Hitler had wild Aryanist fantasies from a young age. He wasn’t a wizard, but he was no angel either.
Yeah, but if you were to take a period appropriate luger to every child in that post war period that was a rascist little shit you would have to wipe out like, half of all of them at least.
Which is a good bit but the time paradox would be too great. You go kill all those kids to stop the holocaust then a German time traveler goes back in time to stop you stopping the holocaust and then it restarts the mess. You both bleed out in an unkown back ally in Munich. Baby Hitler is traumatized because what the fuck did he just see.
I’m not saying “shoot everyone” or even “shoot kid Hitler”, I’m saying “he was a sussy baka from a young age” is all. What to do about it is a very different question.
Imagine four ball on the edge of a cliff
Why four ball and not two cow?
Huh, I thought we had a jhonny five aces emoji
This just poses the question: how far back to we have to go and who do we kill to change the material circumstances of germany during that time period. quick someone check in “The German Ideology” for clues!
To paraphrase a joke seen on Naked Capitalism the other day.
Partisans are in the hills near a pass where Hitler is scheduled to travel through, preparing their rifles for an ambush. They wait, and wait, and wait, but Hitler and his entourage never arrive. One partisan turns to the other and says, “Gee, I hope nothing happened to him.”
Me a normal human being: “I think Hitler should have died in the trenches of WWI.” Jack Black, a soulless corpse: “Actually, you’re worse then Hitler.”
All he said was “don’t miss next time”? Lmao get the fuck over yourself Jack, this is genuinely pathetic.
Not very metal, Jack
definitly not rock and roll.
incivility killed the metal 😔
😔
if you won’t even throw away a 30 year career to protect trump, can you even call yourself a biden fan?
Jack Black cancelling a tour and screwing over Kyle was not on my 2024 bingo card
Especially not over something as tame as hating Donald Trump
Breaking civility norms is a huge transgression for libs.
Also why they’ll always lose to fascism.Liberals have no material analysis and they rarely have any skin in the game when it comes to politics. They’re not going to starve, they’re not getting killed, they are not getting tortured, they’re going to be fine no matter whether the emperor wears a red or a blue tie. It’s all like a team sport to them, you might get really excited about your team and use big words but you would want them to win within the accepted rules of the the game. You would think it would be beyond the pale if someone from you team brought a gun to the pitch and started shooting at the other guys.
As a fan of Mutant League Football and Hockey, I would be elated to see my team pull out explosives and take out those fucking Sixty-Whiners
Apparently the Australian government is DEPORTING them over this: which is quite frankly the most absolutely metal, hardcore, and based shit Tenacious D has ever had happen! Jack should have embraced the shit out of this and rode it.
Why the fuck would another country give a fuck about this shit, trump isn’t a fucking Australian president
A country can never lick the boot of the US hard enough.
Especially australia. They’ve been dying in wars they couldn’t possibly have any way to benefit from for American imperialism for decades.
Also Trump is a global figurehead for dumbshit fascists, look at the Twitter page of the guy who proposed the deportation. You would literally never guess that he wasn’t an American Trump fan, every post is about Trump, almost never about Australia except saying aus should be more like America.
Also the cia might have installed the government there
Trump is the president in waiting of the evil empire. Pissing him off or not showing the right amount of deference for him now in the middle of his martyrdom can cause you lots of headaches in the coming years.
because australia is unironically just an american colony
we even overthrew their government once
So much for Western free speech lmao
I would not condone hate speech
What gets counted as hate speech these days
Hate speech is when you say mean things about someone because you hate them.
Hate speech is when you hope the open fascist, THAT YOUR ENTIRE POLITICAL GROUP HAS BEEN CALLING A FASCIST FOR YEARS, gets shot.
Who was literally calling for military tribunals and extra judicial executions of his political opponents LAST WEEK.
Not to be a pearl clutching lib and act like there was any chance of that ever happening but for fucks sake, he was telling his whooping hogs last week he was gonna execute you but it’s too much this week to be like “damn too bad that guy missed when he shot at the guy that was threatening to round up lgbtq people and put them in camps”
making fun of white people and or cops.
Kyle Gass, as ever, a credit to us stout and balded kings.
I was always more of a KG Soloman 5000 fan.

“I’ve done it Kyle! I’ve become the bastards of city hall!”
last week, I dissolved the band, won’t get back together, na
crass jokes not landing, i make eight hundred grand, stayin’ civil, we won’t get back together again (la la la la la)
with civility i’ll fire your ass, to trump you’ve been quite unfair, oh yea motherfucker i’ll fire your fucking derriere ooh-ooho
Young Nasty Man stays winning
Lmao when this news came out that song is EXACTLY what came to mind
Jack Black is currently working for the Dems so this makes sense in that they wouldn’t want his campaigning for Biden to be associated with endorsing the assassination attempt.
It’s cringe obviously. But it makes sense in the context that he’s literally part of their campaign and that being against it is the party line.
I think it’ll blow over after the election and they’ll be back together. Purely happening because of the “Rock the Vote” gigs that Jack is part of(cringe warning). With that said the claim that Rock the Vote is “non-partisan” is obviously bollocks.
Jack Black being the wiling poster boy for the Biden campaign is more of an indictment of him then a justification for this.
Oh absolutely. Just saying that it’s actually not that surprising really given what he’s doing.
That makes it worse not better. Everything you are saying is making Jack Black into a being of pure sellout cringe
Kyle should tell him to fuck off and call him a lib bit I understand it’s hard to flip the table when all your money is on top of it.
Maybe Tenacious D 2 will be about them having to beat the devil without ever saying anything mean about him.
Fuuuck! FUUUUUUUCK! The Liberal Code Prevents me from saying to harm baby Hitler, but to appease his rabid fans. What is your wish? What’s the pragmtic mooove? 
If we win, you can continue to do
Everything you want to doooooo
And also we will have to pay your reeeeent
It’s just PR though, they probably talked behind closed doors about it
