A devil from the fiery pits of Hell who escaped to the realm of Earth to became a Rockstar, Mr. Manson is what Rocknroll is truly about: Rebellion, Chaos, and not giving a fuck about anything. Despite everybody's need to destroy everything different, Mr. Manson stands above all in the name of Rock, and remains as a formidable representative for the right to free-speech. He spreads chaos and the dark ways of Satan, provoking the forces of Self-Rightousness: religious groups, moralists and the Government of Christian America, which he dubs "the biggest Satan of them all".
Rocknroll, the devil's music, is his tool, with deafeningly angered anthems chanting his affinity for guns, his self-proclamation as the Antichrist Superstar and his rebellion against institutionalised religion. Thus, his desires to affect the status quo of society with his wicked practices and philosophies makes him an easy target to blame whenever society is in moral crisis.
But what the Self-Righteous ones fail to see is that entertainment is not to blame for the actions of sick individuals, for that is what Mr. Manson merely is, an entertainer, flamboyant and dark to excessive and violent extremes, and a powerful creative force in the world of Music.
