    It’s like they interpret music as just a noise that sounds appealing with no meaning.

      Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me!

      No idea on the rest of the lyrics, something about forces and crosses. I wasn’t really listening. I like crosses! Woo, Trump!

        I guess this is the best place for this comment: about two years back my friend (who is a hardcore conservative, just not trump is God crazy and he doesn’t know about qanon), myself and two other guys (they’re all moderate or liberal) went to go see Rage Against The Machine for like the first time in 20 years. During one of the songs where he raps about humans living shitty lives because they can get ahead, there were posters all over saving things like "save the kids ". “feed the children”.

        My conservative buddy looked at me during the time the posters were up and was he like "WTF is this shit?*

            Yes, I’m aware, considering he’s a conservative and likes Trump 😂

            Haha yeah, I looked at him kinda shocked and literally said "What did you expect? It’s Rage Against The Machine "

        They should have kept “hold office”. The rhyme works better, “works forces” isn’t a saying so it seems really forced, and apparently no one would have noticed anyway.

      Hence former House Speaker and Ayn Rand-lover Paul Ryan’s favorite band being Rage Against The Machine

      I dont see that as an issue so long as you aren’t gonna attempt shaming them. I have songs I just listen to but couldn’t tell you a single lyric or who it is.

        Yea that’s all fine but when they get surprised that Green Day has a little something more to say after preforming American idiot it’s a bit funny.
