EDIT: Looks like EHX made the video private.

Context: This song seems to be about an event where he got beat up by Union picketers (that may have had Mob connections) in '81 but everything about this video is fucking gross. The way it’s edited to make the Union look like antagonists, the use of the word “thugs” (dog whistle much?) in the description, the fucking title…

There’s so many better ways to criticize corrupt unions or write music about an event that affected you personally. Putting this out on EHX’s channel ensures I’m never buying their pedals again.

Send this to Tom Morello, I'm sure he'll have opinions.
