The original video, for anyone who hasn’t seen it:
And the relevant album cover:
Sessler was a teenager when “We’re Not Gonna Take It” it was on the charts. Probably had MTV so he saw the video.
No fuckin’ idea how he thought it was in support of “traditional American values.”
Never not reblog. Dee Snider is iconic and queer as fuck for a cishet man.

No one disrespects my man Dee in this house.
Never forget when he sat in front of a congressional hearing about Lewd Music Corrupting the Youth and completely shut that shit down in the most professional manner that no member of that committee expected from a hair metal musician. They thought they’d get easy points off of a dumb metalhead and this man not only knew exactly what the fuck he was talking about, he tore their arguments apart.
DUDE THE VIDEOOO
For those unfamiliar with this ICON
This is why my working definition of queer is “queerness is that which accepts queerness.”
It encompasses a radical welcome and celebration of things that deviate from “the norm” and a fierce willingness to defend them from people who think mere deviance is worthy of vicious and violent bullying.
Dee Snider is the embodiment of “Queer as in fuck you.”
I love seeing this post make the rounds
dee snider is a fucking icon, man
Right wingers are incapable of creating anything of worth or value
They do not create art, literature, culture
Even most of their ideas are stolen
The only thing right wingers create is death and suffering.
They do nothing but take from others
They drain the world of life, while draining life from the world itself. There is no benefit to anyone other than themselves as a result of these actions.
There’s a word in nature for such a creature
And that word is “Parasite”
Right wingers steal art, culture, music and ideas from those BETTER and SUPERIOR to them, because right wingers are a fucking parasite species that is a pest infestation upon the earth
Oblivious to the unforgiving judgments being passed on him every single day, local 2-year-old Caleb Gibson is completely unaware that he is the sole basis for six couples’ decisions not to have kids, sources said Friday. According to reports, the toddler has thus far failed to recognize that his temper tantrums and messy eating habits have motivated several of his mother’s friends, as well as a couple who were eating near Gibson’s family at a restaurant, to go their entire lives without ever raising children of their own.
What the UK Supreme Court decision has proved is that a wide range of politicians across different political parties do not understand what they’re doing at a fundamental level.
In this video, the former Tory Chief Secretary, Simon Clark, essentially blue screens when it’s posed to him that there’s a risk in forcing trans men to use women’s toilets as it can easily be abused by predatory cis men.
He has absolutely no answer, and anyone with one fucking iota of intelligence should have considered the ramifications of the Supreme Court decision.
But for many politicians, it is right wing ideological culture war pish above all else – and any politician who has pushed this line but can’t answer this question is utterly incompetent and should be banned from any position of power.
If this is their approach to policy on trans people, it’s absolutely their approach in other policy areas. Completely fucking farcical.
