I still remember the days when the industrial music scene was referred to as right-leaning and wondered "by whose definition? Aside from liking military chic clothing most of the musicians were as liberal as they came."
Yup. People missed the point that Laibach was parodying fascism, not actual fascists, but of course the skinheads took it literally. FLA, F242 etc similar in their military imagery etc for similar reasons. I skipped F242 when they were in Denver last because they fucking required the vax or a recent covid test.
(Edit - and also the venue sucked. I saw them pre-Covid at a much better hall and it was in fact an amazing show.)
