Thousands of purveyors of neo-Nazi tunes just had their day ruined by a crew of enterprising Scandinavian anti-fascists.

Phil Anselmo did a nazi salute. This made me sad. But the band didn't market themselves as nazis or write songs that praised nazism or overt racism. I wouldn't mind if someone knew that I own all their albums (except the one where they were apparently a hair band; I never saw that in stores when I was buying CDs). They didn't make nazi music, so I can defend it.

I won't send money their way because of the nazi salute. That I can also defend.

Oh yeah, I'm not trying to blame a fan base over the actions of a group/artist. I also don't know what type of music the original post is about. Maybe they do make music thats like "we are Nazis and so are you if you sre listening" and then I'd probably be understanding of consequences of being fans.

But that Nazi salute is definitely not the only documented racism by Pantera members, and I'm sure you know that.

That doesn't make their fans racist imo
