It amazes me that when they were young and sleeping on the floor of Anthrax's practice space and eating baloney on hand they didn't follow anyone's rules, but now that @Metallica are wealthy enough to not be bothered by anyone the left expects them to follow their rules. 🤔
With the technology available today, why doesn't @Metallica do a hologram of Cliff to perform some songs while they do their residency at @SphereVegas? The fans would absolutely love it, especially the millions who never got to see him perform live. And get Mustaine in on it...
While you're whining that your political dogma isn't being represented, @Metallica just dropped the most metal video since Seasons In the Abyss by @Slayer
I'm gonna say this about the WNBA national anthem stunt: people on the right disagreed with Obama and some did indeed hate him. None of them ever took it as a reason to not be patriotic, especially not on this scale.
To those who participated or approve: you suck.
Trying to force people to respond or speak in a certain manner is why I stand with Hetfield over the angry mob.
The guy blocked me before I could reply to him.
Some people on this app really need a reality check. I don't sit on X 24/7, and sometimes replies get past me. That's life!
To take a missed reply personally and act like someone owes you their time and attention is ridiculous. Nobody is entitled to an immediate response from me or anyone else.
I've never seen such a sense of entitlement over a simple question. 🤦♀️
A lot of people are overlooking the Stone Cold Steve Austin style "pop" James Hetfield received from the fans in attendance. It was a collective expression of the exhaustion at hypocrisy that reached its boiling point when RATM went full pro-establishment during the pandemic.
That guitar really is crappy lol

While Tom is raining against the machine and fighting against the power and for communism, don’t forget to buy his marked up Femder Signature Stratocaster for $1,799, and buy his marked up Signature MXR Overdrive Pedal and marked up Signature Dunlop Crybaby Wah Pedal. Also, don’t forget to get that experimental mRNA shot the government is telling your to get. Nothing says “Rage Against the Machine” and “Fight the Power” quite like corporate endorsement deals and supporting government injection mandates, am I right?
I just want to remind all my fellow sim racers one of the most important lessons I learned from @iRacing legend David Cater (may he rest in peace):
If you're painting a car for broadcast, if the design or logo disappears on the broadcast you need to redesign.
Now support for Ukraine is "save the white babies"? The left can't stop eating each other. Starting to mute all these phonies popping up in my feed. Freaking POSERS. If you're actually metal you know what that means.
hey @GearboxOfficial how does one contact you about using art for an iRacing livery?
Heaven help me they got me defending Metallica. I know random people on X won't know what that means for me but my friends will.
So many people misrepresenting "And Justice For All" by #Metallica, oblivious to the song's true meaning, and seem to have completely missed the next track "Eye Of The Beholder":
"Doesn't matter what you see, or into it what you read
You can do it your own way if it's done just how I say
"Independence limited
Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend
Freedom of speech is words that they will bend
Freedom; with their exception"
When metal has a requirement to adhere to certain beliefs, it will truly be dead. It never has, nor should it ever.
People don't understand what #PapaHet meant and can't accept it because they don't understand they have made their politics their religion.
@Metallica
I can't wait to see people coming out to defend Microsoft lol

You people are out of your minds. You're so mad about Omar but were fine when it was Trump, mad about a legal execution after you cheered Charlie's death, and Metallica is "irrelevant"? Your hatred is making you stupid.
I would love to - Starship Troopers style, "service means citizenship". Learn English and become a part of the community, be a cop or soldier or EMT...prove you're here for your fellow man.
Such a proposal would never pass though because YOU would oppose it.

The more I read of the Cornell 7 case documents the angrier I get. While even the expectation of "consent check-ins" is insane in the context of a drug-fueled orgy, this woman is accusing of rape:
- guys who themselves passed out and were more intoxicated than she was by her own admission (where's their rape case?)
- guys who every time she expressed any kind of even mild wish to the contrary, stopped sexual activity and even sat her down to recover from voluntary drug-induced dizziness to make sure she was ok
- guys she explicitly and in writing told a day or two later that the sexual contact was "legal"
- three guys who had NO SEXUAL CONTACT with her whatsoever, who only walked in briefly, backed out, and went for a Big Mac
- another guy whose only sexual contact with her was a kiss
This is bonkers.
