Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello has taken some time to clarify the band’s political stance once again. According to him, “no one from RATM has ever publicly supported a dem or repub candidate. EVER.”
A fan told Morello the following:
“Tom. I would like to personally thank you for red pilling me with your 1st album. At the time it applied to Republicans. Now it applies to the dems. Let’s decentralized the power structure.”
This led the musician to respond with the following:
“You’re welcome. But as a reminder the first RATM record came out during the Clinton administration. Then, as now, that music critiqued a capitalist/white supremacist power structure that was and is still in full effect. Currently more so than ever. Listen more closely. Like really listen and it’s quite clear.
(Preemptive dispelling of wearying misinformation likely to flood the comments: while being sharply critical of both no good parties (Clinton/Obama/Biden’s war crimes & subservience to Wall Street and Bush/Trump war crimes, subservience to billionaires and Wall Street & general idiocy) no one from RATM has ever publicly supported a dem or repub candidate. EVER. Also, no RATM show has EVER required proof of vax or mask to attend, and anywhere you heard either of those things, or anyone who has echoed those things, is very probably lying to you about a whole lotta other stuff in the service of a racist/fascist agenda)”
