I can’t believe it took 10 posts into the thread for someone to notice it.

And I can’t believe it took 12 posts into the thread for someone to notice the thread title is “you’ve hear” instead of “you’ve heard.”

Slayer’s angle of death probably could be viewed as very anti-semitic but I don’t think it is meant to be taken literally in the first person.

:fail: first of all, the line is:

“Climbed the trees my forefathers hung from”

which obviously means that we moved past a bad time in history and are able to move up and have better lives in part because of their suffering… it’s not about monkeys or hanging more black people… it’s not even racist.
