Elon Musk sparked controversy after posting a tweet asking, 'Why are so many people raging FOR the machine?' This comment, made shortly after an apparent assassination attempt on Donald Trump, drew ridicule from Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello, who quipped that Musk resembled the child on the cover of their album 'Evil Empire.' Although Musk's tweet seemed to reference the band indirectly, Morello's response highlighted the contrast between Musk's perceived intentions and the album's anti-establishment themes. The cover of 'Evil Empire' is often interpreted as a critique of U.S. policies, while Morello's comment serves to underline Musk's position as a wealthy business figure. Morello is also set to receive the 2024 Woody Guthrie Prize, recognizing his contributions to social consciousness through music. This exchange illustrates the ongoing cultural clash between Musk's tech billionaire persona and the politically charged legacy of Rage Against The Machine.
