TOM MORELLO: “No One From RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE Has Ever Publicly Supported A Dem Or Repub Candidate. EVER.”

Rage Towards The Machine‘s message has been misplaced through the years. From claims that the band required masking and vaccinations to attend their reunion exhibits (they did not) to the inference that the band was endorsing the Democrats in 2024 due to the discharge of their Democratic Nationwide Conference 2000 stay album, it has been a multitude. That and a bunch of proper wing of us on-line completely not getting the band’s message.

Now Rage Towards The Machine guitarist Tom Morello is making it clear that no one within the band has ever publicly supported a Democratic or Republican candidate. In a dialog on X, one fan stated to Morello: ““Tom. I wish to personally thanks for crimson pilling me together with your 1st album. On the time it utilized to Republicans. Now it applies to the dems. Let’s decentralized the facility construction.”

Morello responded, saying that Rage Towards The Machine‘s message was not pro- or anti-either occasion. Frankly, I feel we’re all going to be useless and gone earlier than Rage Towards The Machine‘s politics are absolutely understood by everybody on the Web.

“You’re welcome. However as a reminder the primary RATM report got here out throughout the Clinton administration. Then, as now, that music critiqued a capitalist/white supremacist energy construction that was and remains to be in full impact. At the moment extra so than ever. Pay attention extra intently. Like actually pay attention and it’s fairly clear.

“(Preemptive dispelling of wearying misinformation prone to flood the feedback: whereas being sharply essential of each no good events (Clinton/Obama/Biden’s warfare crimes & subservience to Wall Road and Bush/Trump warfare crimes, subservience to billionaires and Wall Road & basic idiocy) nobody from RATM has ever publicly supported a dem or repub candidate. EVER. Additionally, no RATM present has EVER required proof of vax or masks to attend, and anyplace you heard both of these issues, or anybody who has echoed these issues, could be very in all probability mendacity to you about an entire lotta different stuff within the service of a racist/fascist agenda).”
