@Prince Myshkin The older i get, the more i favor the system of socialism. Similar with a lot of other people who got radicalized after they found out just how exploitative the job market truly is.
@Prince Myshkin You are writing this comment on a music video from 20 years ago raging at the insane inequity of our (capitalist) society, and the gap between the haves and have nots in our society today is even worse, not better, than it was back then. You are writing this comment in the midst of a pandemic that has cost tens of millions of Americans their jobs, while dozens of the richest people in the country made billions of dollars off of the worst health crisis we have had in the last century. Re-evaluate yourself.
I think that its sort of stupid to hold up failed socialist states like the Soviet union as examples of what our society should be like becauese they were horrible in their own right as well. Late stage capitalism is definitely flawed but socialism is no better if not worse.
@@markusk1015 I don't think most people in favor of RATM's politics are big fans of authoritarianism, so the idea that they would be holding up the Soviet Union as an ideal is kind've dumb.
Actually you should read some Michael Moore articles from that time period. Maybe you would like to listen to The Clash from the 1970s also KNOW YOUR RIGHTS...
funny how they are just sell outs now promoting corporate ESG philosophy. So ahead of their times? Leftist ESG scores control th corporate culture. This is a corporate band.
Back in the day, I was in the mosh pit at a Dead Kennedy's-Black Flag show[with Henry Rollins!], it was brutal and the most fun I've ever had in a concert.
@@toeletsgo69 they have chosen to serve another persons best interests when they signed on that dotted line. Corporate mass media profits greatly from the misery of misplaced anger most people feel these days. They represent what they claim to despise and put thier own survival above those below them. They represent humanities lack of maturity.
If you look into a history book, it will always be as relevant, because they dig deep into the human nature and the machine never stops. Unless we stop. But we won't. Because we are a part of it
Ok let's everybody agree here that this clip is absolutely legendary. EDIT - That's a lot of likes, damn. RATM is all about its message. Only with that they are helping a lot. I dont care how much money they are making, that does not make them fake. It's fair actually. Stop crying
They got a federal permit for this. It was all just a publicity stunt. To trick young pissed off teenage boys and capitalize on ignorant misplaced teen angst so they can keep making money. Their music is so cringe.
@@michaelsmith-lf6mm They got a permit to shoot on the steps, but not for the sidewalks, streets, no parking permits, and a huge noise violation. Plus they had hundreds of people blocking traffic, starting fights, and moshing. They knew once they started they would get in trouble. Michael Moore (who you can see in the video) even told them beforehand "whatever happens, don't stop playing." Say whatever you want about em, but they made wall street and the corporate assholes shit themselves. Rage was pretty good about using the corparate and goverment systems against them.
I was 16 tripping my face off at reading festival at the time. It was 80quid for a coach and camping all weekend too. Look how it's changed in 32 years. Hundreds just for 1 day. MENTAL.

We need this anarchy in our lives again. Bring back this rage. These powerful messages that make people uncomfortable. Bring. This. Back!!!! We need it now more than ever. Tom you are not just a psychic, you are a lyrical genius and the world needs your speech.
Anyone who has serious xm satilite radio can tune into "lithuim" he's a dj on it who has his own radio show on the channel. It's called "the one man revolution". He constantly brings on his 90 y.o mother and man is she a hot fucking ticket. Highly suggest.
Just heard the story of Tom Morello asking Michael Moore if he had ever been arrested before? Mike says no. Tom says, "You've never worked with Rage against the machine before!!" Love that story
Many people here (criticising RATM and Michael Moore) don't understand the difference between: - Making money by exploiting market rules - EARNING money by creating something and contributing to the society
Exactly, if I pay my money to RATM or a Michael Moore movie it's the same thing is someone who buys a good book for knowledge. But if I buy into a politician that he or she is going to make some changes but then turns around and sucks up to their donors did you know you didn't get your money's worth.
Honestly people who use that argument are also the people who criticise poor people for disliking capitalism by saying they're just jealous of the rich.
kim mogensen Nobody on the left “loves” George Soros. People on the left don’t even think about him. His name never comes up except maybe at some politician’s fundraiser. He’s just a rich guy who happens to support liberal causes, as is his right. There are plenty of people like him on all sides of the political spectrum. The right absolutely HATE him and have branded him a left wing bogeyman, but he’s not a person who in any way drives the discourse of the left. He just donates money to causes that are already there. Otherwise, leftist political thinkers and philosophers don’t think about him at all and his name never comes up in any discussion.

They are relevant everywhere. The awakened see transgenders are the Bridegrooms the priests are leading the sleeping too while commiting genocide, to enslave the few good seeds left. As a Mama with 3 boys I am furious!
I have to disagree with you.. we can protest and not go to jail for it. No other country will try and invade us as we're the have the best military in the world. We don't have the problems like south American Mexico Africa we are lucky to be free and not under some dictator. True our politicians senators ect do what they want but I'm happy I'm free I have a car own a house. You can get what you want in American if you work hard for it.....
Growing up on music from the 70's and 80's (Rock, Metal, and Prog Rock mostly) I recall the very first time we heard this band on the radio in the early 90's (in our early 20's). Stopped us cold in our tracks and when it was over we all said "wtf was that?" and immediately went out to buy it.
It's the weirdest thing with this song: I literally get tears in my eyes - but not from sadness and not from happiness. Maybe it's because someone speaks your heart for you in such a strong way that you feel understood - that you're not alone in the way you see the world. Maybe the tears are connected with rage and anger, but my tears feel empowering, not like tears of defeat.
We're born into this world from an unknowable void to which we must someday return. We get to be conscious and alive for what we eventually realize is a cosmic microsecond. We should all have more time to contemplate how beautiful and bizarre it is just to be alive. We should have more opportunities, beyond the... uh... 'gift' of a 3 day weekend, to be with our loved ones and just relax and be happy or create or work for ourselves. But instead we spend our lives working as hard as we can for as little as they can give us. The ruling class live lives of excess far beyond our simple dreams of security and peace and they do it with the stolen profits of our labor. Our suffering and their pleasure are directly proportional. We get one fleeting chance to appreciate what it means to be alive but instead we suffer for their pleasure, then die having lived lives of alienation and despair. You can't get that time back. Your life isn't yours anymore. That's where the tears come from. At least for me. Its existential grieving.
It's the love from the creator of this world. Everything that happens within it is the scope of his desire for a future he is bringing. He sympathizes with you for living down in it and enduring its many trials while playing your part to create the future that he desires.
The hard truths often make me tear up. It's ok. I cry to songs like this too, and want to throw things when I hear ballads. Slayer is soothing while Celine Dion makes me want to fuck shit up.
Did you see one of the first things the government did when Covid raged on the economy was give Wall Street 1.4 TRILLION in basically free money? US taxes used to bail out Wall street instead of making sure people don't starve during a crisis Rage continues to be relevant
Nice try but the middle class pays like 10-15% of the taxes, the top 20% of earners pays over 80% of the taxes. The top earners are funding practically everything in America and they get nothing but hate
@@harrisonwintergreen1147 Damn tell me more about how many of Rand's books you read. But as a thought experiment, let's say that the numbers you claimed were true (they're not) What would that disparity in taxes actually indicate?

@Prince Myshkin You are writing this comment on a music video from 20 years ago raging at the insane inequity of our (capitalist) society, and the gap between the haves and have nots in our society today is even worse, not better, than it was back then.
You are writing this comment in the midst of a pandemic that has cost tens of millions of Americans their jobs, while dozens of the richest people in the country made billions of dollars off of the worst health crisis we have had in the last century.
Re-evaluate yourself.
I think that its sort of stupid to hold up failed socialist states like the Soviet union as examples of what our society should be like becauese they were horrible in their own right as well. Late stage capitalism is definitely flawed but socialism is no better if not worse.
@@markusk1015 I don't think most people in favor of RATM's politics are big fans of authoritarianism, so the idea that they would be holding up the Soviet Union as an ideal is kind've dumb.
This song is even more relevant today in 2024 than it even was back then.
Most definitely!
I had to watch this with my son to show him that things are just getting worse now in 2024!
Actually you should read some Michael Moore articles from that time period. Maybe you would like to listen to The Clash from the 1970s also KNOW YOUR RIGHTS...

NYC: You shall not perform.

Rage: you say that like we give a shit
@Josh Abatecola I meant 'you say that like we give a shit about your rules/demands'
NYPD more like. Appeared to have people that enjoyed it.
RATM: f@☆k you I won't do what you tell me

funny how they are just sell outs now promoting corporate ESG philosophy. So ahead of their times? Leftist ESG scores control th corporate culture. This is a corporate band.

Oh my, that would be like a "Mad Max Fury Road" style thing... I'm totally in!
It would be awesome. Complete anarchy lol

Caio José Gomes Simão My favorite also!!! Wishing you a safe journey in life.
One of the best songs from the band
They got a federal permit for this. It was all just a publicity stunt. To trick young pissed off teenage boys and capitalize on ignorant misplaced teen angst so they can keep making money. Their music is so cringe.
@@michaelsmith-lf6mm They got a permit to shoot on the steps, but not for the sidewalks, streets, no parking permits, and a huge noise violation. Plus they had hundreds of people blocking traffic, starting fights, and moshing. They knew once they started they would get in trouble. Michael Moore (who you can see in the video) even told them beforehand "whatever happens, don't stop playing." Say whatever you want about em, but they made wall street and the corporate assholes shit themselves. Rage was pretty good about using the corparate and goverment systems against them.

Tom is a good guitar player, but it's really Zack de la Rocha who should be getting credit for the lyrics here. Rage would be nothing without him
Yes Anarchy but not from Left
@@PAPUXIS Somebody doesn't know much about anarchism.
@@PAPUXIS Bro what the fuck do you think anarchism is?
It is literally impossible to separate anarchism from the left.
Anyone who has serious xm satilite radio can tune into "lithuim" he's a dj on it who has his own radio show on the channel. It's called "the one man revolution". He constantly brings on his 90 y.o mother and man is she a hot fucking ticket. Highly suggest.
Just heard the story of Tom Morello asking Michael Moore if he had ever been arrested before? Mike says no. Tom says, "You've never worked with Rage against the machine before!!" Love that story
Many people here (criticising RATM and Michael Moore) don't understand the difference between:
- Making money by exploiting market rules
- EARNING money by creating something and contributing to the society
Exactly, if I pay my money to RATM or a Michael Moore movie it's the same thing is someone who buys a good book for knowledge. But if I buy into a politician that he or she is going to make some changes but then turns around and sucks up to their donors did you know you didn't get your money's worth.
Thank you! My goodness. I keep trying to explain this to the conservatives that surround me.
Honestly people who use that argument are also the people who criticise poor people for disliking capitalism by saying they're just jealous of the rich.
george soros Making money by exploiting market rules, the left love Soros, He ruined the Thai economy, he is evil.
kim mogensen Nobody on the left “loves” George Soros. People on the left don’t even think about him. His name never comes up except maybe at some politician’s fundraiser. He’s just a rich guy who happens to support liberal causes, as is his right. There are plenty of people like him on all sides of the political spectrum. The right absolutely HATE him and have branded him a left wing bogeyman, but he’s not a person who in any way drives the discourse of the left. He just donates money to causes that are already there. Otherwise, leftist political thinkers and philosophers don’t think about him at all and his name never comes up in any discussion.
This video is so unfathomably based. RATM and Michael Moore will always be legends

This song really rocks, no matter the year is 2000 or 2021.
It brings a feeling of protest and justice everyone has inside and rock'n roll is all about.
It is very cool to see the moments in the video when even Wall Street execs and operators fall for the sound and start to rock with the band...
Good music is irresistible...

The saddest part about this song is that it will continue to be relevant as this country will NEVER EVER CHANGE!
I have to disagree with you.. we can protest and not go to jail for it. No other country will try and invade us as we're the have the best military in the world. We don't have the problems like south American Mexico Africa we are lucky to be free and not under some dictator. True our politicians senators ect do what they want but I'm happy I'm free I have a car own a house. You can get what you want in American if you work hard for it.....

Growing up on music from the 70's and 80's (Rock, Metal, and Prog Rock mostly) I recall the very first time we heard this band on the radio in the early 90's (in our early 20's). Stopped us cold in our tracks and when it was over we all said "wtf was that?" and immediately went out to buy it.
Don't stop now

@@bingboompow8861
What is what about?
This video is one of the many reasons I love rage against the machine.
It's the weirdest thing with this song: I literally get tears in my eyes - but not from sadness and not from happiness. Maybe it's because someone speaks your heart for you in such a strong way that you feel understood - that you're not alone in the way you see the world. Maybe the tears are connected with rage and anger, but my tears feel empowering, not like tears of defeat.
We're born into this world from an unknowable void to which we must someday return. We get to be conscious and alive for what we eventually realize is a cosmic microsecond. We should all have more time to contemplate how beautiful and bizarre it is just to be alive. We should have more opportunities, beyond the... uh... 'gift' of a 3 day weekend, to be with our loved ones and just relax and be happy or create or work for ourselves. But instead we spend our lives working as hard as we can for as little as they can give us. The ruling class live lives of excess far beyond our simple dreams of security and peace and they do it with the stolen profits of our labor. Our suffering and their pleasure are directly proportional.
We get one fleeting chance to appreciate what it means to be alive but instead we suffer for their pleasure, then die having lived lives of alienation and despair. You can't get that time back. Your life isn't yours anymore.
That's where the tears come from. At least for me. Its existential grieving.
It's the love from the creator of this world. Everything that happens within it is the scope of his desire for a future he is bringing. He sympathizes with you for living down in it and enduring its many trials while playing your part to create the future that he desires.
Yeah me too. But it caused by tear gas in here...
The hard truths often make me tear up. It's ok. I cry to songs like this too, and want to throw things when I hear ballads. Slayer is soothing while Celine Dion makes me want to fuck shit up.
me too! it validates what i know to be true despite capitalist propaganda and social conditioning.
Still most amazing dreadlock frontman 🤘
