NIN and Ministry are the opposite sides of the same spoon.

With Sympathy was it! tee...

[@noBearAdventures]

I’ll never forget the moment i listened to “A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste”. My buddy’s dad had a CRAZY system. One day after school we went to his house when his family was away and my buddy Bob says “you guys wanna hear something insane”? We lit up a few J’s, cracked a few forties, and Bob cues up “Thieves” and cranked the shit out of his dad’s system. I was never the same again.

[@kurtp8833]

It's "The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste", not "A mind"...

[@noBearAdventures]

@ your correct. My bad. I do think that’s they’re best album. Although I’m a big fan of Animostomia and A Last Sucker. Hated From Sympathy tho

[@jaysonlee4394]

At a Ministry show in a small club in the midwest...for some reason the local Nazi's showed up..halfway through the show..one of em spits on Al..Al proceeds to jump into the crowd boots first on top of this guys head and pummels this guys face into the ground..mind you the band is still playing Al gets back on stage fixes his goggles lights a cig..and continues were he just left off..All Hail Ministry..🔥

1992 Orlando, Florida. Ministry takes the stage. The biggest baddest hurricane that the state has ever seen is the backdrop for the outside stage. Lightning spitting out of the clouds like a programmed tesla coil playing along to the music. Won't ever be a Ministry show with such an epic backdrop.

Born in 2001, now 19, I have to say I overlooked this band because I heard "Jesus Built My Hotrod" wasn't that great, but until one day I heard "Just One Fix", "Burning Inside", & "The Land of Rape & Honey", my mind was set to hear more of them and they kick ass!!! Uncle Al, your the best!!!

[@jeannoel43]

now ,its ok,but hey,was better in 91,normal.

[@SvenTviking]

The trouble with Antifa is that they call anybody who even slightly disagrees with them “Fascist”, and that diminishes the term and the evil it represents. With that, they become evil themselves, and also hand the role if victim to the real fascists. Other anti fascist movements in the past have successfully fought fascism without turning on ordinary democratic conservatives or even anybody that isn’t hard left wing. Let’s put it this way. There are many in Antifa who would be just as gleefully genocidal in dealing with those who they disagree as an average fascist and they are in no way democratic.

[@itookallthenames]

he's talking about the crowd you dipshit

[@professionalnutcase5422]

@@SvenTviking Feeling alright in your little filter bubble? With every single of your pointless accusations and generalisations you emphasize the lack of a single argument. It's just an outburst against every one not sharing your political point of view - too ironical regarding your speech. Guess what? It doesn't need anybody to be "hard left wing" to support human rights and fight racism, sexism, antisemitism and classism and the representatives of the latter ones, like Trump, Putin, Bolsonaro, Kim, as-Sisi. Guess what else? Being a conservative necessarily requires being anitfascist as democratic pluralism is implemented only based on a clear repudiation of fascism. You feel a little rejected? Right. Because you've just swapped fascists with antifascists and confused critical thinking with undisputed obedience. Thanks for the chitchat.
