Rage Against The Machine - Testify (Official HD Video)

[@80momknotts17]

I'm an 80 yr old great-grandmother and love this song. I'd give Zack, Tom and the band huge hugs if I ran into them. Come back, y'all!

[@80momknotts17]

@UC8itfFFiAbiRCrPpaZOgO0g Lovely comment--thanks! I've always wanted to visit the Motherland but never had a chance. I come from a long line of Smiths and Franklins who immigrated here quite early from England. It's not hard to understand why so many English settled in the south. Around here, it's rolling hills, farms, small towns, horses, hunting--small villages without the manor house these days, though, and more modern, of course. . BTW, your knees--do you get regular shots of steroids? My only impression of GPs in the NHS is from the "Martin" series, haha, and the villages from "Midsomer Murders". Enjoyed both series immensely.

[@S.Grenier]

In that it's a music video about people who don't believe in either candidates.

[@milesgreb3537]

It is not important that you "believe in them", whatever that means. It is important one understands the facts of the game before them, and acts rationally to cause the most good. Only voting for Clinton did that, any other action is demonstrable immoral according to game theory

[@S.Grenier]

My friend... I have done my undergrad studies in political sciences. I am fully aware of what an electoral campaign is. My comment was not meant as a deep, thought inducing statement to be quoted by future generations and that will spark great debates among intellectuals. It was just about a guy (me) who was reminded about a cool song (Testify) while reading the preliminary results breakdown on election night, and dropped a comment after watching the video. I'm willing to pursue any conversation you might wanna have about this in private, but I don't make an habit of having discussions in the darkest public space the world has ever known (here).

@47 47 You do realize that's just them trying to appeal to the LGBT community right? It's marketing. Few of those companies and politicians actually give a shit. Also, seriously, "sodomy"? Since you seem to want to pull the religious card, a google search tells me that according to Matthew 7, it's not your place to judge. But hey, that's coming from someone who hasn't practiced in years. Maybe you should give a serious once-over of your views.
