Marilyn Manson has a new album out, “One Assassination Under God”. It’s popular apparently. The lyrics are evil: claiming victimhood, raging, expecting execution, and vowing to take merciless vengeance. It seems he’s a voice of the radical left who is doubling down and preparing for an outright war.

Could well be the case. Scary what they might cook up…
His music has always freaked me out. I still remember waking up to a babysitter watching Much Music with his music video playing and how unsettled I felt.
Wow yeah that sounds unsettling… I remember a few kids in high school who were into MM and watching some of his videos early on. Thought it was weird, unsettling might have been the right word even then.
Exactly!! Who would want to watch his demonic videos let alone start their day that way?! 🫣
I've always heard of him but never listened to his music because I don't trust a guy named Marilyn.
u need more sun bro
his recipe has always been shock and awe.
nothing new. he's an irrelevant has been at this point in his career
The central theme of this album revolves around Manson's experience of being canceled in light of the allegations made against him.
It appears to diverge from the interpretations you are considering.
I think you’re in denial.

Nope. Not even a fan of his to be honest, but I’m not sure what you’re reading into?
From a Genuis contributor who has plenty of contribution on his songs.
“Manson is seemingly addressing two groups of people here. He’s addressing those who agree that the allegations against him are 100% true, despite no public evidence being given and it all being a “he said, she said” argument currently. He’s pre-emptively telling them not to apologise and expect him to treat them kindly after their actions and behaviour towards him.
The second is the Media and News Channels who blamed him and also felt these allegations are 100% true, as was the case when he was accused of inspiring the 2 Columbine shooters. He is also pre-emptively telling them that if they stop posting inflammatory and accusatory articles and statements about him, it won’t mean he’ll give them the time of day.”
Paired with what the artist has said these songs are about, I’m not sure why’d you’d even try to arrange it any other way?
That freak is awful, but an upgrade compared to the usual WAP-style garbage.
