Rage against the machine, I remember they were being played at a conservative rally, and everyone and their mother commented on the irony

Paul Ryan is the dude who expressed his like of their music. Also asked Brian Posehn for an autograph, Brian was like “no dude, get away from me”. Ryan has since disappeared from politics

What about Sex Pistols? Their lyrics weren't necessarily right wing but everything they did was trying to be edgy no matter the message. They'd probably "piss the woke SJW snowflakes" if they existed nowadays.

Shame the Pistols, in particular Johnny Rotten was nothing but a right-wing shill pretending to be left to cash in on the punk era.

snowflake? When people use the term snowflake just remember they're quoting Fight Club, a satire written by a gay man about how male fragility causes men to destroy themselves, resent society, and become radicalized, and that Tyler Durden isnt the hero but a personification of the main characters mental illness, and that his snowflake speech is a dig at how fascists use dehumanizing language to breed loyalty from insecure people. So, basically people who use snowflake as an insult are quoting a domestic terrorist who blows up skyscrapers because he's insecure about how good he is in bed.
