Paul Ryan said his favorite band was RATM you can’t blame musicians like that who are so in your face with their politics being completely misunderstood (or more commonly deliberately misrepresented) by chuds.
RATM lyrics are about two things: disliking authority and references to leftist struggles that come across as esoteric to most Americans. Hardly any American knows about Mumia Abu-Jamal or the Zapatistas. Chuds hone in on the points of reference they understand and internalize the lyrics as about the things they like.
Also in 2000 they did a free protest concert in front of the DNC that turned into a small riot against the police. I remember my chud uncle at the time saying something like “I don’t like their music, but those boys are doing good if they hate those Democrats.”
