    Peter Steele was a land of contrasts. My [way too charitable] read was always that he was a bog-standard 90s shock rocker edgelord with Lawn Guy Land CHUD characteristics -- basically a 7-foot parrot that occasionally squawks out isolationist [paleo-]conservative talking points while earnestly believing that he is apolitical. This is just how a lot of dipshit GenXers were in the 90s. They get that Rush Limbaugh in 'em and they get all antsy in their pantsy.

    Meanwhile, "I Don't Wanna Be Me" is so close to being a chronically depressed closeted trans/egg anthem that it's eyebrow-raising, given the source. I think one of our resident trans goth Maoists could have fixed him, but the mental age gap with a himbo like Pete might have been problematic.
