How about when a republican Tweeted:
And Dee Snider:
Ah yes, the famously conservative hair metal singer whose stage getup was just shy of a drag performers. How could one forget this pinnacle of conservative values.
I've seen drag performers with less makeup than Dee Snyder. He was approaching "circus clown" in that song's video.
That's the funny part, and why he destroyed tipper gore's dumb parental advisory witch hunt; He doesn't drink or smoke, and is a family man. He's much closer to conservative family values than people expect. Here he is recounting that time he made a fool of Congress
You should also watch his full congress speech if you have time
They saw it was from Twisted Sister and probably thought they were into incest like them?
My favorite response the Morello tweet got was "what 'Machine' did you think he was raging against? The dishwasher?" Lol
Nah, definitely was a printer.
Well, in a way, raging against a printer usually is just raging against late stage capitalism with extra steps
It has to be a HP Printer.
Lol, yes. My dad worked for them and can attest, printer ink is peak late stage capitalism.
The only response I was hoping to see 🤣
Touché
I've definitely raged against printers........ (I'll see you in hell Epson ink refills!)
Epson didn't refill itself!
Pretty sure that's canonically done to "Damn it feels good to be a gangster" and not RATM. Could have been an air conditioner though.
“Ms. Gore claimed that one of my songs, ‘Under the Blade,’ had lyrics encouraging sadomasochism, bondage and rape. The lyrics she quoted have absolutely nothing to do with these topics. On the contrary, the words in question are about surgery and the fear that it instills in people. … I can say categorically that the only sadomasochism, bondage and rape in this song is in the mind of Ms. Gore.”
-Dee Snider at the PMRC Congressional hearings.

The most stereotypical drag band aren't conservative? What a shocker
My wife's theory was they only caught the first 20 seconds of the video and assumed the father was the protagonist.
Get this in front of AMC to get picked up for 5 seasons with 3 or 4 good ones
