I don't like playing Queen (We Are the Champions, We Will Rock You) at sports events, and they are at least as queer as whoever did "We're Not Gonna Take It", but those tunes aren't going away.
"Steam" was pretty much a made-up group (long story) whose B-Side "Na-Na-Hey-Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye)" also became an anthem.
Few would recommend the Rolling Stones' or Elton John's lifestyle for the general public, and yet "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Tiny Dancer" are played at all Trump rallies.
"You'll Never Walk Alone" is as classy soccer tune as any, written by Rogers/Hammerstein, and was redone by Gerry and the Pacemakers that somehow caught on.
What does it come down to? The songs stand on their own merits for their intended use (catchiness, singability, familiarity, suitability, luck). That's why Rush Limbaugh made the lefty Pretenders a second fortune by using their music for his theme.

Had the displeasure of meeting him once. He's an awful human being and his own biggest fan.

Since I was 5 years old I have read constantly. It is an addiction and like breathing to me. In second grade I was reading over 1200 words a minute and taking high school books out of the library.
Sometimes I wonder if a lot of other people around me or those that I read posts from on various platforms are just stupid or maybe they cannot assimilate information and data.
I’ve always assumed most FR people are mega-readers.

“Fascists”? ...That’s the kind of originality and creativity that has helped him create so many hits in the past 40 years. (snark)

I’m going to guess fully vaxxed..
Cross dressing? Can someone identify as a cross dresser today? Or is it just using that to highlight what the haters label him/her/it?
To: Twotone
half-Jew Interesting ...
Apparently, he thinks we care about that. Very strange ...

I went to see him, not perform but just have fun at a bar with a local radio station.
He was an asshole to everyone. He threw me out of the bar because my friend was “talking to too many chicks”.
Left a bad impression on me.

Snider appeared before the Senate in 1985 after a pro-censorship group known as the Parental Music Resource Center (PMRC) published a list of problematic bands and tunes that included Twisted Sister. As I recall, the PMRC was bipartisan. Tipper Gore was one of the Democratic woman leading it. Susan Baker, James Bakers wife, was one of the Republican women leading it. There were other women, from both parties.
The conservatives of the day were supportive of the PMRC. It struck me at the time as a half-hearted effort by politicians done not to achieve results, but to earn some conservative street cred for their image.

The Who did ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ quite a few years before.

Snider realized that by cozying up to the Democrats, he could become the "Taker" and no longer the "taken". He's switched sides for approval from the left. Hardly the first to go down that road.
In any case, he sure has gotten an awful lot of mileage out of that one gimmicky song.
