Sure. But it also makes knowing who to shoot a whole lot easier, too.
Part of it is they support tankies and a group that massacred indigenous peasants in Peru.
I’m not sure what RATM’s deal with the (so-called) “Shining Path” lot was… there’s nothing unique about leftists having shit takes or throwing their weight behind the wrong cause. It comes with the territory.
RATM’s previous support of Shining Path, or for that matter the USSR, would probably be quite forgivable if they admitted that they made mistakes—confessions, if you will.
Have they written anything about their beliefs, and explaining such, besides very generalized stuff like “fuck capitalism,” “fuck imperialism,” “fuck fascism,” “fuck American foreign policy,” “fuck this,” “fuck that,” whatever?
It’s why I’m still ticked at Cat Stevens/Yusef Islam, and his endorsement of the attempted murder of Salman Rushdie, and his later denials of such.
