Sigh... I miss the days when Rage Against The Machine focused on music and wasn't political.

Tap for spoilerI feel obligated to say this is sarcasm, just because of the way things are. (There are actually some people who said this to Tom on Xitter lmao.)

I know right! The band didn't start getting political until 1991.

spoilerThe band was founded in 1991.

Now that I think of it the whole 90s didn't start getting political until around 1991.

To be fair, it'd definitely be justified...

It's entirely possible HP printers acted like a gateway to first experiencing true rage, that later led people into the maga cult.
