    Anytime “Killing in the Name” comes up, I have to tell the story of the time I was bringing my oldest to his second week of kindergarten and he requested this song, which was his favorite at the time.

    I realized I may have created a problem for his teachers when he started shouting along with Zack “FUCK YOU, I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!” We had have a little talk about not using adult words at school and how his kindergarten teacher really wasn’t the problem with the system.

    His second grade teacher, though… My son’s anti-authoritarian steak streak served him well, there.

          While I believe eathing the rich is likely necessary to fixing the mess humanity has created of the planet, some one else can eat the rich dude steaks.

      When I was in grade 2 my bullies would always make noise in class and our teacher forced the whole class to write lines because of it. I felt this was a deep injustice on two fronts and decided to resist, refusing to write anything.

      This kicked off a series of events that lead to me being brought in front of school board officials who made me sign a document stating I wouldn’t cause any more problems for the school. I merrily signed it and then once again refused to accept punishment for something I didn’t do, and they tried to kick me out.

      For some reason the school board was surprised to learn that 8 year olds cannot form a legal contract.

      My kids too, except it was Lonely Island’s “Threw it on the ground”.

      It was one of the rare occasions I broke my “Don’t laugh when they do bad things” and it encouraged my child to do it as much as possible.

              You could have a very advanced predictive comment system.

              If you really want to convince us that you’re NOT Norm, saying something nice about the Courtney Thorne-Smith (of Melrose Place fame) movie Chairman of the Board should do the trick!

          I think they were referencing Tom Morello calling out a critic about it. – https://www.instagram.com/p/BcjjnBqAZOV/?utm_source=ig_embed

          davez67 – “Another succesful [sic] musician instantly becomes a political expert.”

          tommorello – “@davez67 One does not have to be an honors grad in political science from Harvard University to recognize the unethical and inhumane nature of this administration but well, I happen to be an honors grad in political science from harvard University so I can confirm that for you.”

          Either that, or they’re an idiot.

      Besides the fact that he has a degree in Political Science? Or the fact that Rage has always been a political band? Or someone asked a question and he answered? Which one do you prefer?

      When did you realize that RATM’s music was “political,” right-winger?

      Did the overtly political content of their very first album give you a clue?

      Don’t fret, chum… maybe just try something “non-political” - like Chumbawamba, perhaps.

        I hadn’t heard that before. I heard the line “The world is riddled with maggots, the maggots are getting fat,” as The world is full of MAGAts, the MAGAts are getting fat.

          The world is full of MAGAts, the MAGAts are getting fat.

          It’s difficult not hearing that these days.

        Rage Against the Machine’s first album was not political, it was full of bangers.

              Perhaps be certain of your own first.

              If reality doesn’t turn out to be what you were led to believe it to be it is never reality’s fault.

      “Who am I supposed to vote for? Am I supposed to vote for the Democrat who’s gonna blast me in the ass or the Republican who’s blasting my ass? Politics is just one big ass blast.”

      “It is a coast-to-coast, nationwide ass blast”

        Most of us live in the guts of the beast. Surrounded and controlled by its goo and membranes. Maybe move to the skin or eyelash. It ain’t bad.
