Last week I discovered Tom Araya is maga, and it might be the reason for Slayer's final break up. I can't tell you the disappointment. I also wouldn't bet my house on Lars and James not being maga.
Jeff Hanneman used to play shows and make videos with a guitar that had a giant nazi-style "SS" on the pick guard and making songs glorifying people like Josef Mengele. Nobody ever joined slayer thinking about how inclusive they were
I love metal but it is famously full of neo-nazis lol. In thrash, Hetfield (Metallica) Mustaine (Megadeth) and King+Araya (Slayer) have all said some heinous stuff. Get into punk if you want an antifa crowd.

Sorry man but the members of metalica are pieces of shit. You can lump them in with kanye west

Every single metalhead I have met would fight a Nazi on sight so maybe Hegseth should take off the Poser outfit.

Damn that really does suck hard But he is a lifelong Catholic, so I guess I shouldn't be that surprised
Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 98d
Indeed, I guess we shouldn't be surprise of catholics being A-ok with a pedo-dictator president who bombs Muslim schoolgirls, but still, wtf man.

He does in the meme anyways, it’s exit light, enter night
TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 98d
Or at least "exit life, enter knife", as we used to sing at school.

And now, a reading from the book of OPM: " If I die before I wake at least in heaven I can skate".
Edit: Sorry, I didn't know it was an edited photo of Hegseth, I thought it was just Hatfield.
MTZ@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 98d
No one else is likely to understand that reference, but I do for some reason. But I don't understand how OPM has anything to do with James Hetfield.
Heaven would be a DJ, playing dub all night long...
Edit: Nevermind I am a dumbass. I get it. Lol
mrmisses@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 98d
Hey I have that song on my "oldies" playlist. It's all I know of OPM.

If he was into Metallica, Lars would be by far his favourite member and the drums on St Anger a masterpiece

I've seen Metallica a few times, had every album on repeat until reload came out. I know every work and change up, etc etc
But the one thing that always comes to mind first is FIRE BAD
lol
