I dunno what you know about teens these days, but most of them don't give a shit about music. Rock, in particular. Why do you think that rap is the most popular genre these days? No, if teens are as stupid as you think, then they wouldn't be smart enough to figure out exactley what de la Rocha (btw. Rage is pretty much old news according to lots of these dumb teenagers that you are talking about...four years broken up is a long time) is talking about.
It's not what he is talking about, dear friend. It's that what he's talking about is bullshit. They get the message, but the message is a scam.
Besides, this same thing can apply to any of the Rage ripoffs that have replaced them, like System of a Down, or even authentic replacements like Audioslave. Bullshit messages that indentity-lacking teenage mushskulls eat up like flies on shit.
Quote: Rage merchandise: t-shirts, and posters.
Mel Brooks paraphrase time! "Merchandising, merchandising! Where the real money is made!"

I like Rage Against the Machine and nothing you say can change that. I am also aware that you may not like it, however. I dont care.
I touched a nerve, didn't I? ;)
All you're doing is proving my point: You're an angry little child who is mad at the world for whatever angsty teenage reason you have. In about five years, you'll look back and see you liked Rage and think "good lord, what the fuck was I thinking?"
