A recurant bit, also wildy taken out of context, happens before the song "It's not living if it's not with you". It consists of Matty starting to say something that is going to be problematic, but actually, he never does cause the music starts playing. That's the joke.

Unaware that the lyrics were actual Trumps quotes, it was spread wildly online that Matty was an antis*mit, a n*zi and actually thanked Kanye. Matty’s view on the situation are polar opposite. He shared his thoughts on the ion podcast in nov 2022.

The biggest controversy happened during "Love It if We Made It". The song is made of references to controversial social and political topics that point to a trend of regression leading to dark times. The title offers a positive message of finding light at the end of the tunnel

This isn’t an apology to Matty Healy actions. This is meant to give context and facts to counter many dangerous false narratives being spread online. Words matters. Accusation without any basis are dangerous. Not liking one’s character doesn’t justify character assassination.

He also has publicly expressed his disapproval of the Trump administration in a speech stating “Today’s a dark day” in regards to the 2016 US election results, as well as “They’re all gonna fucking die and we’re gonna outlive them and we’re gonna change the world”.

WORDS MATTER! Weaponizing bigotry is dangerous, vile and ignorant. This doesn’t help the fight against actual antisemitism, it weakens it! This performative outrage has worried Jewish fan who have pointed that Matty has been doing the salute for YEARS.

The ATVB show is part concert/part performance art. It tackles topics such as cultural overconsumption, the tortured artist trope and the toxic-modern masculinity crisis while blurring the lines between performance and reality. The show has been acclaimed by several media outlets

Moments that often have been taken out of context are part of an interlude of the show where Matty is ACTING. He eats raw steak, pretend to touch himself, does topless push-ups in front of TVs flashing images of AdrewT, JordenP and the likes while drinking.

Another moment wildly shared online, shown Matty doing a military march and with his LEFT hand, does a military salute. The n*zi salute is performed by extending the RIGHT arm from the shoulder into the air with a straightened hand. This is important! This is NOT a n*zi salute!

Matty stories have been qualified as "eyebrow-raising jokes, artful trolling of hardcore fans, and explicit attempts to get cancelled". Asked about how he's enjoying the life of a shitposter, Matty responded:

🎲 On May 28th of 2020, Matty posted a tweet in support of BLM “if you truly believe that 'ALL LIVES MATTER' you need to stop facilitating the end of black ones”, and attached the band’s song“LIIWMI” which features lyrics about racism and police brutality.

The one getting the most traction is “The list of Jews”. This is a real Wikipedia page, that exists on the internet. There is also a list of catholics, a list of muslims. This is weird. That’s "the joke".

Later in 2021 in a Reddit post he apologised, qualifying his actions of "thoughtless" and added "If I said anything or acted in a way that genuinely hurt somebody at any time I sincerely apologise for that. I genuinely mean you no harm, whoever you are."

This came as a surprise as Matty has a long history of being vocal on issues such as misogyny and sexism in music. For exemple in 2019, while accepting a Brit Awards, he used his speech to read an op-ed by music journalist Laura Snaps.

The 1975 has always been pretty vocal on their support of the LGBTQ community and put their money where their mouth is. Matty was also named ally of the year at the 2019 Diva Awards for using his platform to promote equality.

🎲 In February 2023, Matty appeared on an episode of The Adam Friedland Show, a podcast hosted by two "comedians". He came under fire from fans for racially charged "jokes" he made and laughed at. One in which involved Ice Spice and the mockery of accents by the two hosts.

🎲 A clip of an 2019 Interview where Matty says "Nowadays, I honestly think if you're like piously religious, you should be ashamed of yourself" is cut short and used as proof that Matty is Isl*mophobe. The talk was about religion as a whole and his struggle with it. Here it is:

Hey @rebexxxxa ty for linking my thread. But what about this “For years he has done an onstage Nazi salute”?? If you had actually look at his performance through the years you would know that he hasn’t. He did a military march and never once made a Nazi salute. This is defamation
everyone is mad about taylor swift and matty healy (except me)

🎲 In the song "Roadkill" Matty used the f slur. This moment, again, was taking out of context as he was talking about his own experience touring America in skirts. Matty has been vocal about his queerness while being careful to not to take up queer spaces.

🎲 A recurrent bit during ATVB tour happens between Matty & the camera operator on the song "The Sound". First, this is a man, not a woman, and also - whatever your opinion on that moment might be- this is a CONSENSUAL bit PLANNED happening between two friends. This is NOT sa.

🎲 In Feb 2023 Matty went in the The Adam Friedland Show, an edgy and subversive "comedy show" part of the Dirtbag left. The interviews are skit, satirizing bigotry and right wing ppl. Most of the things said are not real and/or have been exaggerated for shock value.

What about when “minority people” are telling you to be offended about actual offense and not all made up ones? This was not made to exempt him of what he has done, but to shut down all those crazy stuff. I am all for holding ppl accountable but don’t create false narratives.
I knew of Matty Healy yesterday and y'all out here writing essays about that mf instead of listening to thousands of minority people ?! Some of y'all need more than touching grass.
