Dude, nothing is funnier than seeing dudebros on gun forums bitching about RATM's politics and saying "I wish they'd just stick to music."

I'm like "Dude, do you even listen to the lyrics you're mouthing while you head-bang?"
...and now this piece pops up over at The Bulwark today:
But not all of the band’s longtime fans were thrilled with what they got to see of RATM over the summer. When photos and video of their first new concerts began circulating online—especially one event not long after the Dobbs decision, where the words “Abort The Supreme Court” were projected across a backdrop—some fans were dismayed. What was wrong? The common sentiment was: Love Rage, but why do they have to get so political?
Huh? Rage Against the Machine, the most stridently political rock band of the last 30 years, addressing social topics? Heaven forbid!
I know, right?
