Marilyn Manson comments on the US presidential election


Marilyn Manson was recently interviewed by the Daily Beast about about his starring role in WGN’s ‘Salem’ and one of the questions was also about the 2016 presidential election: “It sounds like science-fiction come to life. It sounds a lot like the story of Holy Wood that I wrote, which is about a movie star becoming president, or like the movie Wild in the Streets. For me, I voted once the last time and I’m not going to vote this time because I don’t like either choice. That doesn’t make me a coward or make me a failure as an American because I don’t want to make a choice; I want to be a part of not choosing on this one. I just don’t agree with either pile of shit that’s on the menu. It’s cat shit and dog shit. I mean, I like cats, but one turns into white dog shit and one turns into cat litter. I’m going to go with no shits”.
