Richard Patrick + Politics (Split from NIN Spotting)

[Helpmeiaminhell (is now in hell)]

[Mod note: shit split]

Patrick is an interesting dude. His entire fb page is deranged political anti trump tirades and pictures of kathy griffin holding trumps head and memes with trump killing himself and wishing trump commits suicide (2 weeks after he did a million posts crying about the linkin park dudes suicide and how suicide isnt a joke) and 90% of the people who post on Filters fb page are telling him to go fuck himself, and all these people who claim to be Filter fans are claiming they arent listening to him anymore because of his political stuff...Add to that every time he posts up political stuff, a tour or concert gets cancelled. the guy is basically sabotaging whats left of his career because of his radical alt-left beliefs...this is why its dicey for musicians to do politics and why I am glad Trent is mostly staying clear. He does an interview saying Trump is a fuckhead, which everyone knows. Thats fine but Richard is like deranged about it. He makes the alt right seem mellow and reasonable. The guy clearly has a few screws loose and its fascinating to see it play out on fb. He also should stop doin interviews about NIN since hes been out of the band and a memory for 26 years
