Wow, it's like it's 1993 all over again. Completely forgot about these dudes. Gonna put on some Negativland real quick.

Did they go insane left like so many other formerly respectable icons?

I was working my way through old episodes of Hour of Slack up to the present and they began churning out episode after episode complaining about trump every 5 minutes. it's unenjoyable now

Yeah, pretty much what I expected. Disappointing.

New respect and common ground! I suspect the SubGenius and Negativland are too indie to buy into corporate media, marketing, and politics.

The Rev. Ivan Stang actually appeared on one of Negativland's tracks, "Christianity Is Stupid". Recommended.

IMO, we should start a Truth-Seeker religion to get tax breaks and protections for our beliefs.
