The biggest thing that pushed out of nu metal fandom when I was younger was learning that for every Serj Tankian there were four fucking goobers like Draiman spouting pretentious shit like "sex is just an exchange of energy" or unironically wearing Ayn Rand t shirts.
When people like this demand unity, they just mean agreement with their views.
Or they mean “okay, so I did something reprehensible. I’m not going to admit it so just shut up”.
Bud, you fucking autographed bombs.
Maybe he doesn't know bombs are used specifically to kill large swaths of people.
like idk what he thought that was for?
This is not the same kind of participation as showing a little leg for the troops.
Maybe sign some food and medical aid delivery for different results. Doubt it will keep BB the moneychanger from sabotaging the supplies tho.
Maybe he's been going through therapy, recently learned about love bombing, and thought he'd finally stumbled upon one?
I hope ur comment tickles curiosity saves someone from a badcult :3

What do you expect from the official band of BMX copper wire thieves?
I have no idea whats with isreal. It just draws in people who you thought had completely normal takes and were proper human beings and turns them into some disgusting thing. Same thing happened with infected mushroom for me. They are in a genre, psytrance, which is anti war and promotes peace. The genre was born from traumatized israelis fleeing to india and discovering the party scene there. Literally one of the founding members of infected mushroom is a veteran whos said before that the music lets him cope with his trauma. How can you be such a hypocrite? And once again same thing with disturbed. They perform a genre and a cover a lot of songs that are blatantly anti war and anti faschism.
Zi*nism is a cult.
Truly is
AIPAC/ israeli backers need good pr, so they "hire' people for PR purposes.
A lot of people were staunchly with Israel after the initial Oct strike from Hamas. Many have simply rested on their laurels and continued to back Israel, either thru laziness or some internalized fear or simple cruelty. Others have taken a step back and started to understand the bigger picture. The second group is much smaller.
Remember when he covered The Sound of Silence?
Kinda weird how someone can sing that song and completely miss the point of it.
What about "No More"???? Like, THEY wrote it and they performed it. What happened?
[Verse 1] Once again we hear them calling for war It doesn't matter what they're fighting for They light the match and watch the whole world burst into flame The story's always the same So tell me, people, are you ready to kill? Behold the propaganda, get your fill A distant enemy is threatening our freedom again How much would you like to spend?
[Pre-Chorus] Millions are falling in line And it's just a matter of time Endless destruction will ensure their pockets are lined For all time
[Chorus] No more defending the lies Behind the never-ending war
They count the money as the innocent continue to bleed
They paint a picture, and the whole damn world is deceived
I guess they also have other older songs like Immortalized and Indestructible which seem to be pro-war. I thought they had improved or something.
Today we feed on domination Secure a legacy that will never die Be immortalized
Show no mercy, let the world see We’re invincible
Every broken enemy will know That their opponent had to be invincible Take a last look around while you're alive I'm an indestructible master of war
Such a huge section of their music was anti-war and anti-fascism. It's like if RATM came out and endorsed Trump. This is the first celebrity let down I've ever personally experianced, normally I'm able to identify the shitheads well ahead of time.
I had this same thought reading back some of these lyrics.
Good thing RATM is no more. It’d fucking break me if Zach came out as a
Conserv卐tive.
Can't be.
Conservatives and missing the point of their favourite songs; name a more iconic duo!

Actually the conflicts of this world and how we react are EXACTLY what define us as individuals in the course if our limited lifetimes? (quote from article)
Very airport jokes vibe. Like this guy hasn't touched the ground in a while. Waded right out of relevency and into the highcash hustle.
"Unity" never actually includes conservatives, it always means having better people accept them no matter how horrifically shitty they act, while they change absolutely nothing about their behavior. Fuck this loser and all his loser fans
We in Disturbed are all about unity, OK? We’re all about, no matter who you are, no matter what walk of life you walk, no matter where you come from, no matter how much money is in your pocket, you are welcome at these shows. You understand that?
But we're also about blowing you up if you live in the wrong place and are of the wrong culture. Everybody else, they're welcome to our shows. Unity man, for everybody. Except for the people I wanna kill.
Edit: or maybe he wants the dead children to come to his shows too, I dunno

You first.
What a fucking letdown.
Because of this guy and a few others like him, I’m more inclined to listen to dead musicians these days.
