@stewartist Most Conservatives are only Conservatives because they are paranoid, xenophobic, and racist white people who don't like minorites have more power than them. I can tell that just by watching Fox News. Well, just so you know, you're a dying breed. Next you'll have an Asian, Indian, Latino or even a female president and you'll be the minority. Anyways, have fun going to Mexico to buy blooe pressure meds because you have no insurance until your 65. That is if you have a job, do you?
@stewartist Yeahz the US of A is the PERFECTIONIST of all countries. No poverty, everyone has health-care, no murders, the educational system is # 1, and there are no rich assholes stealing money from the working people. All countries have all those factors, like Canada, Japan, Germany, Sweden, Denamark, Singapore, and in the non-distant future, China. Good 'ol America is utopia. You are one of the dumbest, most blinded, uneducated, clueless, patriotic morons I've seen on this site.
it is more about americas entire history of murder, violence, enslavement... murdered the native americans... used an atomic bomb, murdered innocents in other countries because we're trigger happy, enslaved africans.....the list goes on and on...if you look at americas entire history youll see how messed up it is....proud to be an american my ass!! you should only be proud if you resist!!
Yes, but Europe has way more wars than any continent in the world. And I live here. But at least America started/instigated a lot more wars. We are just followers -__-

OPERATION FREEDOM IRAQ ,,, what a fucking joke , oh america is soooo concerned with the human rights of the
@andydwyerno1 - Hey, Conspiracy nut! If it was a controlled demolition (to kill people) then why wait till the building was empty, why not "pull it" when it was full of people...you're the FUCKING JOKE!! Go live in a third world country, where you'll feel more at home.
darwin , australia had a many more bombs dropped on it then pearl harbour around the same time period , but why is it that what happens to americans is forced down the throat of the rest of the world as some unthinklable injustice . sorry but its a fucking joke watching what your government gets away with , and , CIVILLIAN SUPPORT FOR WAR .. 3 fucking times and you still fall for it while you kill your own . its no conspiracy , your own military defects leaked classified inteligence about an
I agree with him about the native American slaughter, but the Atomic bomb was a result of US being attacked by Japan...and about us being the worst country, how about Stalin killing millions of his own people, China killing millions of their own people, Hitler killing millions of innocent Jews...come on man!!!
@stewartist it is more about americas entire history of murder, violence, enslavement... murdered the native americans... used an atomic bomb, murdered innocents in other countries because we're trigger happy, enslaved africans......our history seems to be far worse than any other that i have heard
@MrCoconutsquash -True Americans have given more in charity than any other country on this planet...Yes!! Our Govt. officials are fucked up!! The slaughter of Native Americans was despicable, The Slaves of the south was despicable, but it is NO COMPARISON to the atrocities from Hitler's reign, or what China and Russia has done to their people...look at Sharia law in the middle east for god's sake...If you don't like America, then get the fuck out!!
@stewartist i cant i was born here and im gonna do whatever i can to try and change the fascism, racism, and overall lack of sense that has plagued this nation for centuries...WE must do this for our people, for ourselves, and for our future.....maybe sometime in the future we can be proud to be americans.......

@4000Andrew he became popular because people with similar views to him supported him and bought his cds and stuff. if it were up to the corporations i think they would rather see him unsuccesful
@dawnstarzen7 your actually kind of hilarious, no comebacks because were not arguing, there is no argument. you dont even make sense in your rambling I think you have some kind of mental problem, besides you started this thing im not entirely sure what you want anyway
Merlynatbermuda, your a douche bag. I've read your post. You sound uneducated and poor. I'm sure you'll retaliate with something clever, perhaps GO FUCK YOURsELF... Nice, computer tough guy.
@USMC19777 I know your question is rhetorical, but just because he sees problems with the United States government doesn't mean he wants to leave. He might want to stay and help try to fix some of the problems he sees through the message in his music. Why just give up and leave when he can try to make a difference? Just my guess.
@USMC19777 Maybe he has some personal ties to the land??? Family??, friends??, loved ones?? Just cause someone doesnt agree with the system, doesnt mean you flee the country if you have roots there
Why should he leave? We preach a free country that is democratic, yet neither of this is true. This is our country and we should stand up for what the government tries to brain wash and say is true but in reality is not.
Ok I agree, maybe he doesn't hate ALL white people. He just likes the ones who agree with him on his bull crap views. Look at Mexico- only Mexicans run their government. Look at Japan-do you think whites and blacks are running the show over there? In every country there is usually an elite class and it's always small. If he's gonna hate on America then he needs to hate on everyone else too. I ain't saying a small elite is good or right. I'm just saying its not only happening in
well what do you expect in a war. a nice competitive game of scrabble? capitalist dictatorship? that doesnt make any sense. so you are saying a corperation was running vietnam during the occupation? the russian people chose communism too and they regretted that decision. yanks? hahaha where you from boy? communism hasnt worked and never will. its a fact
"a country who murdered and enslaved millions in southeast asia as a result of the vietnam war" what the fuck are you talking about? i believe killing is a part of a war you dipshit. as for the enslavement part i believe the communist regime that america tried to stop were the ones enslaving people. you leftist fuck tards really think socialism and communism is a good idea? obviously none of you have worked for anything. you just want everything taken care of for you like a child.
@Tpalms88 Aight cunthole listen up while i drop the knowledge.
"Kill and enslave millions" the vietnamese people (who were slaughtered and raped in their homes by GI's) couldn't raise a peep of defiance against the capitalist dictatorship of Vietnam during the occupation, and accusing the Communists of enslavement? The people of N.V CHOSE communism, and so did the people of the south once you yanks pussed out!
Also, people who want communism don't want to work? Yeah coz the 1% know how to work.
@Tpalms88 vietnam was a super unjust war not the same as ww2 or ww1 were everybody was slaughtering everybody. lbj was stooge for a war for profit. and yes we did slaughter them ever heard of naplam dumbass. look at the casuality count usa 50,000 the nvc in the millions. check your fact asshole
he never once said he hated America, chill out people, you're acting like this is present tense too...this is 15 years old; he was just bringing out many of the flaws that people need to recognize
I wonder why he never attacks his Spanish heritage as in Spain, who decimated more Central Americans than any Americans ever did, they wiped out a civilization. He is dead on about America for a racist though! The People of the Sun were dominated by Spain....
Zach... If America is so horrible of a place then why do you choose that one country as the one you want to live in? You are a total hypocrite. White people aren't all bad. Be open minded dude.
I had a similar view when I first started listening to Rage. However, I believe your opinion is incorrect. If Zach had anything against white people, Timmy C and Brad Wilk wouldn't be in the band. He is mad at the very small elite population of American government that is predominately white, the population that screws over the rest of Americans who work hard just to survive.(i.e. Bernie Madoff) Its not that Zach hates America, its that he wants America to change.
That being said, many of the points Zach makes are fairly dumb. The U.S. dropped the atomic bomb(after many warnings to the Japanese) so they would not have to sacrifice many more live to end WW2. If the bomb had not been dropped, there would have been a million more casualties. Also, bringing up slavery is invalid, considering most of the modern world at that time took part in it. I'm not saying its right, I'm just saying that it's incorrect to single out one country.
But people are more complex than that. A person can have a racial grudge and still hang around with particular members of the despised race. don't know if that's what's going on with this Zach guy...just pointing out that your argument doesn't hold water. Also, wanting something to change can go hand in hand with hating something. The left in general hates America because America rejects and fights socialism. If Zach is a leftist, odds are good that he hates America.
@1Doz do you even know who this guy is? did you ever hear of a band called rage against the machine? the band name says it all he definitely hates the American government not America.
Of course I know who Zach is. He and his silly-ass band were a pop culture hit back in the day. He hates America just as most leftists hate America. If he doesn't he's the exception to the rule.
@1Doz "leftists hate America." That makes you a bigot who has to stereotype to end intelligent political debate. I understand why you have to do this. Its because you can never win a logical debate. I really feel sorry for you. You sound full of hate and i think thats blocking your ability to reason.
No idea what you're talking about. I put forward a clear argument which you ignored in favor of spewing ad hominem BS. Also, when you quote someone you should use their actual words. You need to learn to practice what you preach about "intelligent political debate".
@1984wrx You can't love the Shining Path and love America at the same time. Do you know what the Shining Path is? I doubt they make an appearance in any of your coloring books.
Your argument made sense until you equated an entire political side with being socialist and hating America. Saying the left in general hates America is plain wrong. I have many friends who are liberal and they are just as patriotic as any conservative. Also, do you really believe Rage Against the Machine could have had the success that they had as a band if one of their members secretly hated two of the others? When you're around someone that long, you tend to notice things like that.
The left accepts only loyalty to class, not to country, hence its rejection of patriotism. The left sees patriotism as a tool of the rich to keep the working class divided. Most liberals have a distaste for patriotism but can't clearly explain why like more doctrinaire leftists can. Liberals rate their own level of patriotism lower than conservatives when polled...it's not just some unfair accusation. As I said before, general racism with specific exceptions is possible.
You're right about the stuff you say about the US, Zack but you gotta do your research before you say stuff about countries like Brazil. Sorry but I can't really take Rage that seriously anymore ever since they came to my home country, one of the MOST CORRUPT COUNTRIES IN THE FUCKING WORLD and said the current, killing bloodsuckers in power are gonna save young people in Brazil. Here's to simplify: EVERY politician in South America is DIRTY, one way or another. Simple as that, Zack.
thanks Zack for admitting you're a racist SOB by saying blond hair blue eyed people represent the power structure.
Did you know there are poor white people just as much as poor brown people you stupid idiot?
Huh Zack?? You racist POS. There are more poor white people than poor brown people. Rage Against the Machine are nothing but RACISTS trying to act like victims.
blond haired, blue eyed ppl do represent the power structure. i'm a white man n i know that. the world IS run by blond haired, blue eyed elitist racists that wanna enslave all of us. this shit ain't about what color u r. it ain't white ppl versus brown ppl. it's good versus evil. it's time ppl stopped triflin n fighting about petty dumb shit like children n realized who their enemy really is
that interviewer is so damn annoying. I hope he never interviews an awesome writer ever again. all he does is humm and repeat the names of the musicians that zack says he listened to.
Why are people always arguing. Instead of insulting each other for believing something different, why can't there just be a constructive discussion? The end result should be to learn from differing opinions, while maintaining our own. Instead of calling people stupid fuck or idiots, educate them. Insults are not the way to open someone up to new idea's. That being said, you're all fucking stupid and I hate you all.
why do all you haters defend the system of the few billionaires that oppresses billions of poor people? (I know the answer all right, it's because it provides cheaper production, so you can buy cheaper cars, more exotic food etc etc he's just saying to open your eyes, don't keep 'em shut while shooting at him) and read a book for god's sake. try Marcuse, G.Marcel, ... than, at least you know what he's talking about/what you're shouting at
He's merely pointing out the flaws of the country, he doesn't want to destroy America. When you're criticizing someone, that doesn't mean you want to kill them.
really shut up retard your lucky your in a country where your aloud to say wat you want and what ever religion you want. where in other countries your killed if you disagree with anything
@rockoutloud1223 so true, im "latino" and writting here, USA tO ME its like mmm bad but no so bad...the whole world russia, china, etc are fucked up 2
@s0ccer96 its not about going to live somewhere else you ignorant fuck, he raises people's awareness through music. he was born here but wants to change our system
@bubbathenaslover yes I understand that but it is common sense that some fuckin band isn't going to change our whole system, which is controlled by a bunch of idiots.
@bubbathenaslover yes I understand that but it is common sense that some fuckin band isn't going to change our whole system, which is controlled by a bunch of idiots.
What a DUMB ASS , he talks about history ------ to bad he doesn't understand or appreciate his FREEDOM ( people have shed their BLOOD & DIED for this SCUM to have freedom of speech )
@0269ish Its that country with its history that gave him the possibility to do what he's done. But not trying to improve the situation in the world and in the states (which is, be honest, not as humane as it should be) would be ignorant. calling him dumb is plain stupid. Things are wrong. and don't call him scum. he has realized more than you'll ever do
@deathheadunitss pshhh, please. Simply handing out his money won't do shit about the issue of corruption he just addressed. It won't attack the root of the problem.
Hey go have fun protesting in Egypt, here is number I got "at least 846 people killed and 6,000 injured". Be glad you live in America. Man you lost me now "If it's breaking a law or not is irrelevant to me" well why protest then lol? Just go ahead and break the law genius, no need to protest anything lol. Breaking the law usually involves infringing of the rights of others, thus vicitms. geez if you're taking from the Declaration of Independence its okay to break the law, I think you missed it.
@literallarry2011 you missed it. most laws can be broken without victimizing anyone. he grew up in lesser parts of the usa. he knows what he's talking about. and protesting can be against state actions, for instantce, or wrongdoings that aren't punished or seen as wrong. please think before you speak. and not only about your phrasing, that is
@stewnaaitsabes So ignorant...well whether you realize it or not some has to clean up behind you're nonsense. And yes someone always has to be the vicitim for you breaking the law. Whether its paying for you're jail cell and 3 meals a day or cleaning up the trash you leave behind at you're protest. I know man smoking weed and holding a sign is a whole lot easier than going to college or running for office...but you dont want to work that hard to change the world. We'll keep doing it for you..kid
@literallarry2011 breaking most laws doesn't inflict one going to jail nor cleaning up trash man. (except if you're from Texas). And I am a student (philosophy and history), I hate holding up signs and I make money playing music which needs a lot of time invested. Don't criticize my lifestyle if you haven't got a clue of what it is. the only difference between the 2 of us, I guess, is that I do see a global picture when thinking of life and you'll probably only think of a bigger car.
@stewartist Most Conservatives are only Conservatives because they are paranoid, xenophobic, and racist white people who don't like minorites have more power than them. I can tell that just by watching Fox News. Well, just so you know, you're a dying breed. Next you'll have an Asian, Indian, Latino or even a female president and you'll be the minority. Anyways, have fun going to Mexico to buy blooe pressure meds because you have no insurance until your 65. That is if you have a job, do you?

@1Doz Agit-Prop
Agitation is most definitely needed against the American system as it stands.
It isn't Propaganda if it's the truth dipshit, nor is it unduly aimed against a particular group rather than the "machine".

I wonder why he never attacks his Spanish heritage as in Spain, who decimated more Central Americans than any Americans ever did, they wiped out a civilization. He is dead on about America for a racist though! The People of the Sun were dominated by Spain....

Zach... If America is so horrible of a place then why do you choose that one country as the one you want to live in? You are a total hypocrite. White people aren't all bad. Be open minded dude.
Zroller181343 1 month ago
@Zroller181343
I had a similar view when I first started listening to Rage. However, I believe your opinion is incorrect. If Zach had anything against white people, Timmy C and Brad Wilk wouldn't be in the band. He is mad at the very small elite population of American government that is predominately white, the population that screws over the rest of Americans who work hard just to survive.(i.e. Bernie Madoff) Its not that Zach hates America, its that he wants America to change.

@genesisofsound
That being said, many of the points Zach makes are fairly dumb. The U.S. dropped the atomic bomb(after many warnings to the Japanese) so they would not have to sacrifice many more live to end WW2. If the bomb had not been dropped, there would have been a million more casualties. Also, bringing up slavery is invalid, considering most of the modern world at that time took part in it. I'm not saying its right, I'm just saying that it's incorrect to single out one country.

But people are more complex than that. A person can have a racial grudge and still hang around with particular members of the despised race. don't know if that's what's going on with this Zach guy...just pointing out that your argument doesn't hold water. Also, wanting something to change can go hand in hand with hating something. The left in general hates America because America rejects and fights socialism. If Zach is a leftist, odds are good that he hates America.

Of course I know who Zach is. He and his silly-ass band were a pop culture hit back in the day. He hates America just as most leftists hate America. If he doesn't he's the exception to the rule.

@1Doz "leftists hate America." That makes you a bigot who has to stereotype to end intelligent political debate. I understand why you have to do this. Its because you can never win a logical debate. I really feel sorry for you. You sound full of hate and i think thats blocking your ability to reason.

No idea what you're talking about. I put forward a clear argument which you ignored in favor of spewing ad hominem BS. Also, when you quote someone you should use their actual words. You need to learn to practice what you preach about "intelligent political debate".

@1Doz
Your argument made sense until you equated an entire political side with being socialist and hating America. Saying the left in general hates America is plain wrong. I have many friends who are liberal and they are just as patriotic as any conservative. Also, do you really believe Rage Against the Machine could have had the success that they had as a band if one of their members secretly hated two of the others? When you're around someone that long, you tend to notice things like that.
genesisofsound 2 weeks ago
@genesisofsound
The left accepts only loyalty to class, not to country, hence its rejection of patriotism. The left sees patriotism as a tool of the rich to keep the working class divided. Most liberals have a distaste for patriotism but can't clearly explain why like more doctrinaire leftists can. Liberals rate their own level of patriotism lower than conservatives when polled...it's not just some unfair accusation. As I said before, general racism with specific exceptions is possible.

You're right about the stuff you say about the US, Zack but you gotta do your research before you say stuff about countries like Brazil. Sorry but I can't really take Rage that seriously anymore ever since they came to my home country, one of the MOST CORRUPT COUNTRIES IN THE FUCKING WORLD and said the current, killing bloodsuckers in power are gonna save young people in Brazil. Here's to simplify: EVERY politician in South America is DIRTY, one way or another. Simple as that, Zack.

Why are people always arguing. Instead of insulting each other for believing something different, why can't there just be a constructive discussion? The end result should be to learn from differing opinions, while maintaining our own. Instead of calling people stupid fuck or idiots, educate them. Insults are not the way to open someone up to new idea's. That being said, you're all fucking stupid and I hate you all.

Hey go have fun protesting in Egypt, here is number I got "at least 846 people killed and 6,000 injured". Be glad you live in America. Man you lost me now "If it's breaking a law or not is irrelevant to me" well why protest then lol? Just go ahead and break the law genius, no need to protest anything lol. Breaking the law usually involves infringing of the rights of others, thus vicitms. geez if you're taking from the Declaration of Independence its okay to break the law, I think you missed it.

@literallarry2011 you missed it. most laws can be broken without victimizing anyone. he grew up in lesser parts of the usa. he knows what he's talking about. and protesting can be against state actions, for instantce, or wrongdoings that aren't punished or seen as wrong. please think before you speak. and not only about your phrasing, that is

@stewnaaitsabes So ignorant...well whether you realize it or not some has to clean up behind you're nonsense. And yes someone always has to be the vicitim for you breaking the law. Whether its paying for you're jail cell and 3 meals a day or cleaning up the trash you leave behind at you're protest. I know man smoking weed and holding a sign is a whole lot easier than going to college or running for office...but you dont want to work that hard to change the world. We'll keep doing it for you..kid

@literallarry2011 breaking most laws doesn't inflict one going to jail nor cleaning up trash man. (except if you're from Texas). And I am a student (philosophy and history), I hate holding up signs and I make money playing music which needs a lot of time invested. Don't criticize my lifestyle if you haven't got a clue of what it is. the only difference between the 2 of us, I guess, is that I do see a global picture when thinking of life and you'll probably only think of a bigger car.
