i think because Pantera is nazi-coded, or some of the members are actual nazis? I assume it’s to avoid the “let a nazi in your bar, it becomes a nazi bar” phenomenon.

Me as a young’un listening to the lyrics of 10s by Pantera as it starts playing during Broly The Legendary Super Saiyan

I kinda have the same issue with Iron Maiden ever since Bruce went full steam ahead as a xenophobic Brexit dipshit. Then I dug deeper and found that Steve Harris actually wrote most of their material and gave them another shot, on the basis that “Fear is the Key” was written about the Thatcher and Reagan administrations’ inaction on the AIDS epidemic due to both of them seeing it as a way to systematically murder “undesirables.” So then I listened to the song and heard the lyrics making it sound like LGBTQ+ folks are all needle-sharing orgy-goers

Fuck Pantera, though. Damageplan is automatically sus as well, and there should be a version of the Doomsday Clock whose hands indicate how close Kayla Kent is to finally getting that swastika face tattoo.
