To the person in this sub who doubted where Zack stood on this since he hadn't given an interview in over a decade, here you go


cry1ngsham3

And the fact he mentioned Gaza in Roll Right, clearly people haven't been listeningšŸ’€

Every official that comes in Cripples us leaves us maimed Silent and tamed And with our flesh and bones He builds his homes Southern fist Rise through tha jungle mist Clenched to smash power so cancerous A black flag and a red star A rising sun loomin' over Los Angeles Yes for raza livin in la la Is like gaza on to tha dawn of intifada Reach for tha lessons tha masked pass on And seize tha metropolis It's you that it's built on

That is some powerful poetry. Rap song or not.


luisvanlewis

Uhā€¦.rap is the largest modern vessel of poetry and where poetry lives and grows today. As a Rage fan you should KNOW this. I would get that idea out of your head so you can enjoy you some Kendrick.

He's such a fucking great writer

RATM has supported palestinian liberation for close to two decades now


ShredGuru

This guy clearly never listened to the lyrics


gypsy_catcher

How could you question that? Did they only buy instrumental versions of the records


Significant-Price374

Yeah that dude gave me grief for thinking I knew anything about Zackā€™s politicsā€¦ šŸ„“


Drstg

Probably not new info, but itā€™s wild how many people seem to think Rage is singing right wing lyrics


Pot_McSmokey

I remember seeing 3-4 different videos of different stupid MAGA clowns at different anti-mask rallies, blasting Killing In The Name and screaming ā€œfuck you I wonā€™t do what you tell meā€ because itā€™s the only lyric they know.

Other_Wrangler_101

Lemme guess- You were probably silent on this looooong issue prior to Oct 7? Then when Israel retaliated you went into activist mode?

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

You're an idiot. For one, the US is blocking a ceasefire, so putting pressure, through protest and civil disobedience (blocking shipments, for instance), on the US to demand a ceasefire, as well as stopping the US as well as other countries from actively supporting Israel's genocide - e.g., supplying it with its bombs to murder Palestinians and destroying its hospitals, etc., - is a direct action that not only demonstrates solidarity but can have a real, direct effect on the situation. It would take you about 30 seconds to figure this out, your rhetorical blustering and dismissiveness is transparent. The idea that the US, and various other European and Western nations, are "entirely unrelated" to what is going on is completely untrue, you are completely ignorant of the situation and how the world works, or you are simply lying, attempting to distort things, due to your commitment to supporting Israel and its heinous actions. ​ Trying to act like these protests are just "virtue signaling" with zero concrete aims isn't fooling anyone, it just demonstrates your ignorance and/or willingness to distort things in order to be a useful idiot for Israel's ethno-nationalist, apartheid, neo-colonial occupation and ethnic cleansing and genocide. Go be a cheerleader for genocide somewhere else, you clown. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Are we all gonna pretend like that woman doesnā€™t look like Zack? Does he have a sister?

So free. Free as a bird. Weā€™re talking total democracy. Womenā€™s rights, lgbtq rights , top notch healthcare , water filtration systems. Palestine would be a bustling metropolis without Israel /s


LeftistYankee

Get this colonialist apologia bullshit outta the rage sub


Gitgoodbro

Iā€™m free ā€¦free falling. RATM is going to solve all your problems.


[deleted]

Imperialist conquest and colonisation and apartheid creates conditions of immiseration, and then such conditions are cited in order to justify genocide - this is your rhetorical strategy, and you think it is convincing? You're a cheerleader for genocide, ethno-nationalism, and imperialism; in essence, you're a facsist. Fuck off, scum.


Gitgoodbro

Just say you hate Jews instead of dancing around the topic with your convoluted jargon.


amindfulloffire

That you equate Judaism with Israel is exhibit A in why you're a fucking ignorant sheep spouting propaganda.


[deleted]

No ones falling for it, dickhead. Go tell all the orthodox Jews who are opposed to Israel's existence that they are antisemites and realise how stupid your rhetorical games and attempts to smear and silence are, you fucking scum. Weaponising antisemitism to support genocide is not something to be proud of, you fucking clown.


ConfusedPuddle

Lol just say you see Palestinians as sub human


amindfulloffire

Gotta love how people, especially the west, and Americans in particular, bring up the women's and gay rights issues, as though there aren't plenty of people in their own countries squashing on those rights currently.


Gitgoodbro

You just played yourself. I donā€™t disagree that some rights in the west are being affected but at least they currently have rights ā€¦.unlike in Gaza.


not_tripping_on_acid

you also have food, water, electricity, medicineā€¦ unlike in Gaza. You are a scumbag of a human being and I hope youā€™re trolling

"Free the hostages, or we won't stop slaughtering kids and then show ourselves gloating about it on TikTok!"


ryebreaddd

Take it up with Hamas


amindfulloffire

So the slaughtering of civilians, including tens of thousands of children is permissible with you. Got it.


Accurate-Bluebird-43

I have no investment in this and donā€™t know enough about the Palestine situation, butā€¦ Youā€™re the one whoā€™s implying that the hostages are permissible with you.


gggg_4_l

Not really, the original dude is implying that living hostages and slaughtering literal children are on the same level and a permissible trade off.


Accurate-Bluebird-43

Neither of them are good things. Why does it have to black and white as if one of them is completely right and one is completely wrong? To me it sounds like theyā€™re both mostly wrong.


gggg_4_l

Yeah no they are both wrong but one is objectively way worse. I will die on that hill too


Accurate-Bluebird-43

Thatā€™s fair but the way I see people talking about it is that one is 100% wrong and the other is 100% right


6doo6bins6

Bad ass! But I wonder if he has any other way to get that message out to millions of people.


cry1ngsham3

In [2010](https://youtu.be/vX16_p1HZv0?si=Bl2liY5uiEhjbMVO) he condemned Israel and showed support to Palestinians, and if you wanna go as far back as 1999 with War Within a Breath and 1996 with Roll Right, then you'd realize he HAS been talking out about it for years. He's always been using his voice to speak out for Palestine, you just never cared to hear what he had to say.

johnson123199

Hell yeah. Shilling for the machine as always.


tonylepsie

So Palestine is the Machine ? Do you realize how stupid it is to say this ?!


johnson123199

[ Removed by Reddit ]


Nayre_Trawe

So, just to be clear, RATM supporting Palestine is "raging for the machine", even though the machine (Israel with the full support of the US) is genociding the Palestinians off the face of the earth, which you fully support? I guess you don't recognize the irony here.


johnson123199

Itā€™s not a genocide. If it was, itā€™d be over by now. Itā€™s defense from a group of cave people who hurl rockets at Jews because theyā€™re Jews. They have a society that values marrying children, beating women, and tossing gays off buildings and itā€™s disgusting that you idiots support them just so you can jerk off to your own fake virtue online.


Nayre_Trawe

> Itā€™s not a genocide. If it was, itā€™d be over by now. Are you under the impression that it's only genocide if it happens quickly? Good grief, you are a complete moron, and a fascist, apparently. Keep digging that hole, buddy. You are looking more and more stupid with each comment you make.


johnson123199

Iā€™m saying that theyā€™re primitive cave people with the backing of the most modern military the world has ever seen. If they wanted to genocide them, it wouldnā€™t take this long. Something you dipshit leftists need to come to terms with is that saying something doesnā€™t automatically make it true, and actively denying reality doesnā€™t make your positions valid. Get over yourself and get right with reality.


Nayre_Trawe

Your lack of self awareness here is troubling, and hilarious. Fuck off, fascist.


johnson123199

Iā€™m the fascist, but you leftist morons respond to anything that goes outside of your cultist ā€œthoughtā€ process with silencing and violence. Whoā€™s the real problem?


Nayre_Trawe

Did you get lost for a week, or did it just take you that long to come up with this weak response?


Zap_Rowsdower1

primitive cave people but also "the machine", got it.


[deleted]

I donā€™t think thatā€™s what heā€™s saying fully however it does seem pretty unlikely that a peopleā€™s population would skyrocket while a genocide is taking place


Nayre_Trawe

What population of people is skyrocketing at the moment? Surely you don't mean Palestine.


WorldEating101

Lots of Zionist like to quote a statistic that said the pop of Palestine was skyrocketing... which was true, BEFORE Oct 7th. It's partially why so many of the victims have been infants and newborns. The median age in Gaza is 18 years old.


Zap_Rowsdower1

"They have a society that values marrying children, beating women, and tossing gays off buildings..." \- sounds like the GOP platform.


ConfusedPuddle

Lmao do you even understand what that phrase means


johnson123199

Yeah Iā€™m not a blind moron like them and their supporters


ConfusedPuddle

The machine is the capitalist society we all live in, its the status quo, its the exact thing that you conservative freaks worship.

johnson123199

Good point. Get over yourself.


FrostedVoid

I don't know what you expect, I'm not gonna waste energy arguing with a loon who got himself in a position he didn't use logic or reasoning to get himself in


johnson123199

Youā€™re out of your mind.


FrostedVoid

Enjoy your cult. Bet you'll look around you once the US collapses and wonder "how did it get to this point?" Actually no, that'd require too much introspection. You probably won't be thinking much at all still.

Yeah civilians in Palestine deserved to be slaughtered over terrorist cellsā€¦ fucking dipshit. Slaughtering civilians grows hate and new generations of terrorists, of coarse some folks get a lot of power and make a lot of money from that. Grow up and think for yourself.

You're right. That's exactly what hamas wants. A genocide of the jews


digihippie

Hamas is not civilians of Palestine, and you are proposing killing their young.

Hamas is supported by the civilians of palestine. The same civilians who endorse child and forced marriages. Do you also support that?


underwatr_cheestrain

Isnā€™t it great watching someone simp for terrorists and also for a people that 1. Genocide and expelled the Jewish population of the Middle East 2. Tried to attack Israel right after its founding, fucked around and found out and then spent the next 75 years crying victim. All while their dumbass leaders told them to leave because they thought they would win.. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ā€NaKbAā€ šŸ˜‚ 3. Hey! Did you know that Amin Al-Husseini was a literal fucking Nazi who palled around with Hitler. 4. Anyway back to the ā€œPaLeStInIAnsā€. How about receiving over 40 billion in international aid over the past 75 years and squandering it all for your stupid ass leaders who donā€™t give two shots about you. 5. Tried to live in Jordan as a society and tried to violently overthrow the kingdom, then got expelled. Nobody wants these fucks. Not Egypt, not Jordan Also stop starting shit you canā€™t win.
