Folks, the world use to be fully of 30 year olds making music for 15 year olds so giant record companies could sell CDs. Then woke happened.

You may not like it, but American Pie style college comedy movies are actually where US culture peaked

Back in my day black hole sun would wash away the rain but not anymore because of WOKE

Tough being a RETVRN guy these days if this is the barrel they're scraping the bottom of.

The guitarist wore a hammer and sickle shirt to a live show and it didn't seem sarcastic

Leftists made it illegal for guys to be dudes

I remember 2001 well, the entire USA was just one giant music video set

Sargon is the most deranged fascist on youtube. Didn't he have that tweet about mexican food being low quality, so that's why they spice it?

CW: shrimp meat

Alien Ant Farm would be canceled today for being white, just white alone. FOLKS

This is what the world looked like before mass immigration

How did immigration prevent any of this?

Widespread racial and gendered guilt activism

You tell non-whites and women they are innately evil and I know damn well you salivate over legalizing honor killings every day

Bankers had totally screwed the economy for their own gain.

You voted for that because they thought they'd save you from gay marriage.

People were just allowed to be themselves, and they did fun, wholesome things for their own sake.

You people think this is the most immoral thing one can do.

Brits: The Americans of Europe.

2001

before "mass immigration"

When you understand the passage of time.

It's so funny that this loser is reduced to tweeting about music videos from 20 years ago.

There's no way this is an actual response of his to this clip. This has to be edited. I simply can't believe it.

Uh but anyway the AAF version of this song is okay but I felt like it was overrated and overplayed at the time.

Oh you mean the people who covered a Black man's song as a tribute to that said Black man? A AF Black man?

Akkad are you ok? Are you ok Akkad?

a music video from a time, and a place, made by a situated people with particular characteristics.

Oh boy. Someone let Akkad know his bois are woke AF too .. 2003 LOS ANGELES — A rock band crashes the Justin and Christina tour, a gay pride parade and the BET Awards to play their new single? It might sound like an episode of "Jackass" or "PUNK'D," but it's not. It's the setup for Alien Ant Farm's next video.

.... On Sunday, the band dressed the truck as a giant ant — complete with mandibles, antennae and legs — and entered it as a float in West Hollywood's Gay Pride Parade.

"We thought it would be funny to just go down the parade on a float, appreciating diversity and jamming on our instruments," Corso said. "And it was a really long parade, too. We did multiple takes of the song going down Santa Monica Boulevard."

And how did the crowd react? "It was wonderful! We didn't 'belong' there, but it was cool. There were a couple of like 'Blue Oyster Bar'-type biker boys on the side of the street, in full garb, like a couple of Rob Halfords. [They] threw me metal horns.

"The most negative response we got all day was [from] the [anti-gay] fanatics," he continued. "All those ignorant bastards were corralled in [one area] with megaphones, placards, everything. When we went by, we stopped playing and started gesturing at these people, if you know what I mean. They were gesturing back at us, and they were yelling. And all the people attending the parade were cheering for us."

Sure, whatever, I guess.

The past he wants to RETVRN to never really existed so 2003 is as good a time as any for him to wax poetic about.

Carl Benjamin peaked when he called a press conference and then threw a fit when the press turned up to it and asked questions. Smartest right winger.

People used to do weird pop-punk covers of Michael Jackson songs on every street corner back in my day

Now you'll be lucky to see a Janet Jackson cover

Limp Bizkit was a cia op to make Rage Against the Machine seem lame

lmao imagine thinking bankers waited until after 2001 to start fucking everything over for their own benefit. Who was Ronald Reagan? What was Enron?

2001 was not, in fact, the completely different world Sargon implies it is. You could have already had DSL speed internet if you were in a relatively well developed part of the US. The "Terkahjerbs" episode of South Park would air within three years of this song's release

damn that sucks I was just about to do wholesome fun things today before i remembered about gendered guilt activism

Can ww3 happen already so the world is reduced to ash and I don't have to hear this shit anymore

I like the cover

I wonder what "fun, wholesome things" he wanted to do that the wokes disallowed him from doing.

Actual footage of every country the US bombed to submisison

Sargon of Akkad is so dumb and smug I can't even watch dunking videos of him because he's that unbearable. Tim Pool dunking vids are great because he's dumb in a funny way, Sargon just makes me groan.

Really fucking strong contender for hot take of the year holy shit.
