The band's name is Rage Against The Machine... but maybe I'm misunderstanding the whole 'f*** the man' vibe. It makes more sense to me that those who would be "KILLING IN THE NAME OF" would be doing so for some sort of dogmatic reason. I heard it wrong the first time, and can't un-hear it now. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills after reading on multiple sites the lyrics are what they are. I mean history is full of examples of leaders and nations "justifying" their war crimes for the sake of religion. With the tones of their other songs I don't see how it could be interpreted any other way, but hey - I'm the obvious some deaf guy.

Are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces

By wearing the badge, they're the chosen whites
