I’m on the right but I love rise against...And I realize that both right and left, want to see the United States succeed at the end of the day. Have a good one fellas.
I love Rise Against for both the political charged and the not so political ones. It's so great to see him talk about things here. He seems like such a genuine, sweet and nice guy 🥰

I’m a Die-Hard American Conservative who’s seen RA Live over 15 times. I love them for not name-dropping. You can interpret their music in many different ways, including against our radical left wing government. However, the majority of this country is conservative, and if you don’t believe that, then you’re brainwashed. With that being said, if you think the majority of hard working Americans are embracing “nationalism, sexism and racism”, you’ve got it alllll twisted.
This band is amazing! I love Tim. The first time I heard punk I literally thought...."where have you been all my life?!" And the thoughts behind the songs....so beautiful
Rise Against is one of my top 10 favorite bands and have 2 songs in my top 10 favorite songs ever. I'm sure Tim is a much more intelligent man than I am, but I cannot help but wonder; are you happy with Biden? Yes, Trump is not a model person, but I think people need to stop shitting on him. Maybe someone needs to admit that the US is in deeper shit now.
If only someone wouldn’t have given 1.5 trillion dollars to the wealthiest 1% then ignored and underplayed a pandemic, leading to the largest single-day loss since the Great Depression. If only…
Trump supporter here, Ive always loved Rise Against and Tim specifically because despite him disagreeing with Trump, he is level headed, open to discussion and emanates an attitude that this country is starved from. Keep on rocking
First interview I've seen with Tim. But what was up with that Journey cover -- puke! LOL! Great guy great band but he needs to dig deeper into the whole Trvmp popularity thing instead of being so dismissive of em as a bunch of "crazy people" associated with racism and stuff. I agree that Trvmp employed a lowest common denominator appeal but how do we elevate the level of discussion? Dismissive hate is coming from both sides here. People on the left are responding with armed force to perceived grassroots fascist thrusts but even the moderately conservative are reacting to the perception of a "violent left" cuz some lefties suddenly seem to value the traditional version of our 2nd Amendment. Something needs to break the cognitive dissonance on both sides. Is there really only two sides? I think the "Wolves" song really breaks that down. We are GOOD enough and BRAVE enough to become something greater. In the survivalist community (dominated by conservatives and anything you wanna attach to that) is a credo of "not being the sheep or the wolf", neither predator or prey -- its a real ethos with these folks. They have the idea that we look out for our families and communities and regions and not just with guns. The idea is to be the wolf hunter (nothing against actual wolf doggies who we need in out ecosystems). The idea is to guard against people who want to take from other people. If you dig beyond the mass media hype of ultra-paranoid freaks that sink bunkers into the mountains you'll find that there are shared values with the politically disparate-- Things like self-reliance, the concept of freedom, being liberated from the grid, just to name a few. Certainly Trvmp has no interest in any of that stuff. Clearly all he gives a crap about is his golf courses, skyscrapers and casinos, not any of us.
Lyrically he's a genius, whether it's a political song or a love song. As far as his own political view of the world, he probably hasn't taken any law enforcement courses which would open his eyes a little more to the current events going on in the US. If people knew more about the history and application of law enforcement and public order, they wouldn't be so quick to rally behind all these activists who are throwing out race, bigotry fascism and sexism cards. No matter what his opinion is, I'm still gonna love his music.

@@brett4466 well you see I'm moderately conservative, but I chose not to vote for trump because I thought he he was to right wing. Despite this I don't agree with some RA's stances on some political subject matter. I just figured that if was only a moderate Republican, then a more right wing conservative than myself would not enjoy many of their songs at all.

commanderjarak well, he's in a very influential position and failed, completely failed to inquire about Trump and the movement prior to commenting. Ive been reading trump books for a long time. Especially when his lyrics are politically geared and has been angered by people being misfed information etc...hes misfeeding info w all due respect
Metalfan23 I wasn't gonna reply but it's quite obvious you need to think critically. My comment pertained to Tim making an uneducated decision, especially seeing how he influences a portion of the collective. Now you are. I never said I was for or against Trump. Intensly research both sides and juxtapose before spewing out some predisposed belief. Believing is dangerous; know!
@@indoctrinationamericasgrea3543 Tim's view is a bit general but I don't think they're so off. Trump and current conservative ideals are certainly something to look at and actually think about. The problem is that I don't think Trump himself believes what he preaches and not only him but so many other corrupted so called Republican politicians hijacking these ideals. In the end, I believe he and so many of his cabinet are corporatists taking the guise and ideals of conservatives. And of course this applies to Democrats/Obama/Hillary as well. I voted for Bernie and probably will again this primary...I don't agree with him on everything like death sentence, immigration, some social/government policies, but I feel great respect in his conviction and his record in the past. I guess what I'm trying to say is I think it's foolish? to blindly follow a politician and that none of them are above criticism or scrutiny.

To summarize Tim is awesome.
Elizabeth Jackson oh yees!
I wanted a summary of the interview, not facts
I've been lucky enough to be growing up with Rise Against for the past 10 years, a die hard fan now and forever onwards.
I’ve seen rise against 20+ times live. I’m 24 and this is awesome. Rise against for life.
88 Fingers Louie got me listening to Rise Against since the very first album. Lucky to be alive to have them as a background to life.
I’ve seen them once and it was probably the best concert I’ve ever been to
Tim is god damn prophetic. You go back and listen to all the albums. Everything rings more true today than ever before.
Great interview. Tim is such an inspiration
I love how the right wingers who like rise against are crying in the comments xD
It's hilarious seeing right-wingers freak out at "leftist" bands like they've never actually listened to the lyrics before.
Yes like wow, had no plan that RA could actually be "a bit left", woahhhh suprise suprise
I’m on the right but I love rise against...And I realize that both right and left, want to see the United States succeed at the end of the day. Have a good one fellas.

I hate to admit I’m from and live in Nashville. Small town minds stay small.
I can totally see Tim as a philosophy teacher. He seems so down to earth ♥️

Awesome singer of all time and makes good songs
Спасибо! Первый раз смотрю Тима в роли интервьюируемого!)
Trump supporter here,
Ive always loved Rise Against and Tim specifically because despite him disagreeing with Trump, he is level headed, open to discussion and emanates an attitude that this country is starved from. Keep on rocking
I completely agree
Good thing he makes good music.....

i dont really care for anything else you said except the cover of any way you want it is fuckin amazing
I love Rise Against, but you can clearly tell that they are left wing in their lyrics. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and that's ok.
Nationalism, lowest common denominator?
I think he means nationalism to a degree at which you view other countries as inferior, sorta like racism for countries
