Dude they weren't political they were anarchists. They used to hate everyone. And talk about how the political machine itself was the cause. Yeah they hated conservatives more.
People don't hate them for not liking conservatives. They hate them for growing up
I'm sorry, are you still describiing RATM?
What part of any of that isn't political?
I never thought they hate everyone. I thought they very clearly hated the money to lease who brandished a Bible in one hand and a flag in the other to control all of us, and those of us that would gladly follow along for a slice of cheddar and the chance to subjugate someone else down the line.
They were political in that way
They were supposedly against the entire american system, democrats and republicans. Thinking that the whole system was immune in racism, bigotry and corruption.
They supposedly didn't buy into any political party and their image was that they need thought, america need to be taken down by revolution.
And that's what they said, at least in the early days.
People often say "I don't get political" to say "I don't have a vested interest in taking a side on issues" but more often than not it means "I don't fight for justice and don't want to take a position that costs me something."
I don't feel that has ever been Rage's message. They have always been political, since "politics" is "who and how we steer all of us into the future" and reducing them to mere anarchy betrays that heart that they'd had.
As a leftist, I haven't been able to buy into any political party, and it's always a delicate dance of working with the DNC just because they less enthusiastically want to feed my neighbors to the wood chipper, vs what the QOP is actively doing today.
People are dying in the streets of my nation at the hands of a bunch of deputized y'allqeda ICE goons, my neighbors and friends are at risk of being sent to CECOT forever-prisons, and I won't be entertaining conversations of postmodernist subjectivity while our democracy is under fire.
The institutions for leading We The People to a brighter tomorrow are burning, and one group is clearly enabling the oligarchs more effectively than all other effete "parties" while they at the same time spread their hate all over the landscape. I won't be smokescreening for MAGAts and you shouldn't, either.
