The band changed the lyrics to their 2004 song "American Idiot" while performing on ABC’s Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest

    Don’t worry, conservatives still have Kid Rock, that dude from Staind, Gene Simmons, and Ted “shit himself to avoid the draft” Nugent. Truly the best of the best, huh?

      He already said avoid cool music. You didn’t have to illustrate it further.

        Given that the conservatives keep being surprised by bands not supporting their shit agenda, yeah… we do. They thought Rage Against the Machine aligned with them politically. They aren’t going to figure it out on their own.

          Who did they think the Machine was?

            I suspect that they heard “killing in the name” and thought it was gloating instead of protest.

                Holy fuck, now I’m wondering if that song effectively ended up as recruitment material to encourage more cross burners to seek employment in law enforcement.

                  Right? We hear the song and say “yup, that’s how it is unfortunately.” They hear the song and say “Oh shit I found my people, where do I sign!?”

      Unfortunately Dave Mustaine is also a Trump nut, but luckily I haven’t seen any Megadeth appearances at Trump rallies
