The thing is… RATM was always raging against the machine of trying to help people. Not that Dems are trying to be helpful. They want the status quo. But stupid fucking right-wingers can’t intuit what it means to say that, “Some of that workforces are the same that burn crosses.” They only hear, “Fuck you, I won’t do what you’re telling me.”
It’s like thinking Vader is the hero for throwing the emperor down the shaft. No, the Jedi was the hero. They’re basically illiterate.
Edit: Literacy has more to do with comprehension of a sentence than sounding out words, though we’re pretty terrible at teaching that.
It’s RATM dude, every fucking chord they play is a political chord.
Especially the ones that go woooEEEEEOOOOOOEEEEEOOOOOeeeeeoooooohhhh, WAKAtahtahWAKAtahtahWAHKURIKURIKIIIII
The Short he’s wearing is actually a Pink Floyd quote. Mother from ‘the Wall’. Very nice!
I’ll blow your mind even more, that short is actually a shirt!
And not even a short shirt.
Sure tis

There are a bunch of goofballs on Lemmy and it is honestly really hard to tell who is joking on a meme or shitpost community from someone who stumbled in there all serious.
“Oh shit, what community did I post this to? Fuck it, we roll.”
Yeah, I got destroyed by forgetting I wasn’t in green text and said something was fake/gay to be all /s, and I was totally in the wrong community and got obliterated in the replies.
I accidentally replied to a post on womenstuff browsing all. Then I replied to OP saying sorry, realized that wait I just broke the comm rules again, and deleted all my comments in a slight panic. Oof.
Yerp. Poe’s Law is a sunuvabitch.
Quoth the raven: just kidding
Screenshots don’t auto-update?
Nobody fucking knows. It’s magic most likely.
Everybody knows how screenshots work. The problem is social media’s asinine policy of using relative times instead of absolute timestamps for some bullshit reason.
Put the blame where it belongs.
Man I remember when this started and I hated it. Now I don’t think about it any more. But you made me think about it and I still hate it!
Yeah I’m with you there
Posted 2hrs ago! What time was that locally?
Ya, it’s from 2020
2020? Clearly Biden ruined RATM.
You may be experiencing what’s known as deja vu, a neurological sensation linked to epilepsy. It’s often not a sign of anything serious, but it may be worth mentioning to your doctor.
Remember kids, the first time you notice someone mention something is also the first time they’ve ever thought about it.

Not me, my dude! No thoughts forever!
Note that below, I am saying that Dave is using the informal logical fallacy argument from authority. He thinks that a “succesful” musician isn’t a political expert, and therefore, their opinion may be ignored. Meanwhile Tom Morello is saying the opposite, that it doesn’t matter.
One basic problem with argument from authority, where the person making the argument is not the authority themselves, is that they are saying that they themselves cannot make the argument. So, how can they know whether to trust the authority that they trust?
It’s not a bad default position to defer to an authority on a subject that you know little about, but that is not an argument that you should use to counter other people who have an argument.
I really appreciate your thoughtful posts, always happen to learn something and/or glean some perspective. Have a great day!

I know it’s just folded. Let me have this.
