      Yeah, I get the joke in the post, but anyone who listens to RatM should very quickly understand what “the machine” is.

        You’d think so, but every couple of months there’s another post making the rounds on the internet because some oblivious person completely missed the message of their favourite band.

        IIRC Morello even responded to this with something to the tune of “what did you listen to of ours where you didn’t hear political bs? We need to remove it from our back catalog”

      I’ve seen a couple of American Conservatives complain about RATM suddenly becoming all political. How the hell could you miss that?
