Corey Taylor has spoken out against people who deny the existance of the Holocaust and slavery.
Responding to a news story about far-right extremist Tristan Morgan failing to set a synagogue on fire on a Holocaust remembrance day, Taylor wrote "This- right here- is why prejudice, racism and ignorant hate will always just be different ways of saying and meaning FUCKING DUMBASS."

He then shared a commentary about a USA Today story about a school principal in Boca Raton, Florida who “refused to call the Holocaust a ‘factual, historical event’” because “‘not everyone believes’ it.”
Taylor responded: "I’m gonna say this for the fuckers in the back: JUST BECAUSE YOU DON’T BELIEVE SOMETHING IS REAL, THAT DOESN’T MEAN IT ISN’T REAL. Denying things like the Holocaust. slavery, etc is a travesty to the memory of the survivors and disrespectful to the people who fought for them."
Taylor's comments come just one week after metal all-star group Tau Cross were dropped from their label after frontman Robert Miller thanked a Holocaust denier in the submitted liner notes for the new album.
