Sigh... I miss the days when Rage Against The Machine focused on music and wasn't political.
Tap for spoiler
I feel obligated to say this is sarcasm, just because of the way things are. (There are actually some people who said this to Tom on Xitter lmao.)
I know right! The band didn't start getting political until 1991.
spoiler
The band was founded in 1991.
Now that I think of it the whole 90s didn't start getting political until around 1991.
Stupid conservatives think, "fuck you, I won't do what you tell me," is speaking to them. Your spoiler / deflection is absolutely necessary. There are a lot of people who don't understand what they take in.

Sorry, that went way over my head. /s
What machine do these people think they are raging against? A dishwasher?
Hp printer
To be fair, it'd definitely be justified...
It's entirely possible HP printers acted like a gateway to first experiencing true rage, that later led people into the maga cult.
Right wing guy in my discord said it was one of his 1st concerts. Like dude, are u deaf?

100% agreement here.
Tom Morello isn’t qualified to speak about politics.
It’s not like he graduated from Harvard University with honours as a Political Science major.
He’s just some pop artist who Paul Ryan loves.
Lemmy needs to work on detecting sarcasm
Honors grad means you didn't do any of the work to get it
Saw him play recently in Alabama. They were selling this phrase on a shirt. Much to my surprise, that shirt was sold out by the time I went to pick it up. I was pleasantly shocked.
Reading that makes me very happy! I try tell people this whenever I can: there's hope everywhere in America, no matter how red a state is now it can become blue one day. I was a Trump supporter myself and changed, other people can too! Think about all the people in Alabama who bought that shirt. If they banded together they could change Alabama for the better. Things won't be instant but perhaps they get a better mayor elected, then a better state representative then send someone better to the House, then one day a better Senator. If we try and work together it can happen!
Just checked their online merch page and the shirt isn't there. But third-party shirt printers are easy to find and cost not much. Everyone who can should buy one and wear it proudly.
The only viable solution when Nazis take control of government is violence. There is no reasoning with them, they are not logical.
Nazis deserve exactly as much mercy and tolerance as they give to others.
Violence against Nazis isnt the answer, its a question and the answer is always yes.
The paradox of tolerance is a philosophical concept suggesting that if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance, thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance.
In a tolerant society we must be intolerant of intolerance.
