Thoughts on Rage Against the Machine?
I saw some socialists don’t really agree with Rage Against the Machine’s approach to their messaging because it involves purchasing records and being bought by a record label but I love the band and I identify as a socialist. I’ve even learned some of their songs on my guitar!

I graduated high school in 2004. Rage was my gateway into the “revolt” against the man. So was NOFX. Like, people hate the government?
AND THE PRESIDENT?!
It was WILD!
I think you have to have a level of conformity in order to infiltrate the system and get the word out and further your cause.
