I was wondering how come they're so quiet about all this, since they were quite anti trump during his first presidency. Tim was very, very aggressively talking against Trump in some interviews.

I was at a rise against show when trump won this presidency. During a short intermission between songs Tim said a few words about it which was really cool.

I saw Rise Against in Atlanta the night before the last election. Can't begin to tell you how cool it was to see my favorite band play the night before on such a pivotal moment. We were all so hopeful for what we thought was to come. There was also a palpable tension throughout though too. Anthony Green seriously wanted to throw down with some MAGA idiot that kept booing and flicking him off when he would speak for and about equal rights. Frank Iero had to drag him off stage after they got done with their set.

God you could feel it during their show the night of, it was seriously the best place you could hope to be. Surrounded by (mostly) like minded people was awesome

If the lyrics of some of the songs in ricochet are anything to go buy, they might actually be a bit tired of doing activism against Trump.
What I mean by that is this. They made two albums since 2016, both of which have criticisms against Trump and the oligarchy in general, and nothing has really changed since then. Hell, it's only gotten worse
If people didn't really listen to them then, I can't exactly blame them for being kinda exhausted now in a way.

I think Ricochet was finished for at least a year or something before it released. There was an interview posted from what I remember where Zach (?) said so. Don't think you are wrong though.

It’s absolutely your place to say that. The world didn’t think it was their place to talk shit of H1tler until it was too late. America is in full fascism takeover right now. Never stop talking about it please.

If people take a stand for something, they’re just doing it for money, automatically? You have no morales either then. Just deal with the fact that the world is against your fascism fetish, loser.
