Bono and U2 have taken on a lot: music, fame, politics, humanitarian causes. It would be easy just to get caught up in the first two, but U2 and Bono press on into causes bigger than their fame or music. However, when they shift into the politics and humanitarianism, it tends to put the onus on the listener, which can be a conflicting and uncomfortable situation when you're just trying to listen to some pop music in your room.
