You don't want to run afoul of Agent Orange by celebrating a woman so close to his coronation","comments":[{"id":50085308,"user":"Geezus_42","time":1791973623,"time_ago":"5 days ago","type":"comment","content":"

No, please don't make that a thing. They're a great band. They don't deserve that association. :D","comments":[{"id":50085341,"user":"pluc","time":1791973852,"time_ago":"5 days ago","type":"comment","content":"

Do yourself a favor and search “Agent Orange” on your preferred search engine (Sidenote: I’m trying to avoid using “Google” as a verb). Most people associate that term with the very harmful Vietnam-era herbicide, not the band. The band name may be a reference to the herbicide?","comments":[{"id":50094987,"user":"badc0ffee","time":1792010874,"time_ago":"5 days ago","type":"comment","content":"

It's not according to the singer, who came up with it.","comments":[{"id":50123256,"user":"badc0ffee","time":1792178776,"time_ago":"3 days ago","type":"comment","content":"

I can understand taking his word for it, but I don't personally believe that. How could someone in 1979 not have heard of Agent Orange? It would have been all over the news: https://www.nytimes.com/1978/12/19/archives/vietnam-veterans... and the Vietnam war was still fresh in everyone's mind. Maybe he was embarrassed by the edgy name, which is basically a reference to an American war crime, in later years? idk.","comments":[{"id":50130022,"user":"Geezus_42","time":1792235526,"time_ago":"2 days ago","type":"comment","content":"

He didn't say he hadn't hear of it. He said he didn't choose it for political reasons.
