   It still tickles me that the TERFS and Transphobes tried to claim Terry Pratchett as their own, and everyone who actually knew him, including his daughter, and co-author Neil Gaiman, was like WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, you couldn't be further from the truth.

     @RickiTarr Reminds me of some right-wingers who were mad about Rage Against the Machine "becoming political" in 2020.

     I mean they've been morons much longer than that about music in general and RATM in particular, but it was some flare up in social media.

     @willaful @elverkonge @RickiTarr In one of the more recent Star Wars movies, some Deplorables suddenly realized they were identifying with the Imperialists and got really offended. They thought SW was suddenly trying to make a point about them instead of understanding that the Empire had been bad all along.

     @elverkonge One of my all time favorite moments on social media, when a member of the band responded to a post like that saying "what machine did you think we were raging against, the dishwasher?"

     @willaful @RickiTarr I think Tom Morello said if you could find a non-political track, let him know and he'd delete it from their catalog. 😄

     @RickiTarr And I feel like Terry was pretty clear about it
