    What he means is there were stories that showed people in a bad light and which he could not prove. So he left them out to avoid being sued. Fair enough.

      Gene Simmons is a rock legend that influenced most of your favorite Rockstars, like it or not.. you should be thankful that he even existed… that being told there’s a small chance he might even be your daddy

      @@jaypell2.0 Hahaha, okay grandpa boomer sucking off Gene Simmons so much you should marry him then 🗿🙃👌 but no seriously he didn't really influence much of the people I like now which stur around death metal and black metal but anyways Kizz sucks, I was more influenced by Kurt Cobain from Nirvana much more than Gene Simmons ever could be 🤡🤡🤡 that old disrespectful fart I only liked one song from him ever and not much else since then... I've branched out to newer and better genres but System Of A Down is still way better to listen to much more often to me than Kizz or whatever the heck Gene Simmons was ever in he is just not that remember rememberable now especially with Kurt Cobain gone I'd still listen to his music more than Gene Simmons.... He's wack and mid so cope into oblivion mate.

    Honestly, I think system would've sounded better with a different vocalist. Serj is a very nice man and a good singer but his tone and especially his screams sound bad to me. It's the reason I can't listen to more than one or two of their songs at a time.
    Also, many of the anti fascists in the nazi era were pro bolshevik communists. The bolsheviks killed SO many more peoole than the nazis did. Both were evil, but communism killed way more people.
