Marilyn Manson (initially Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids) are an [[UsefulNotes/TheUnitedStates American]] rock band founded in 1989.

* DomesticAbuse: This is what got Jeordie White fired in 2017. Jack Off Jill vocalist and ex-girlfriend Jessicka Addams came out with allegations in a Facebook post in 2017, claiming that, during their on-and-off relationship from 1992-1997, Jeordie White(Twiggy)was emotionally, verbally, and physically abusive. She alleges that he had violent outbursts, was unfaithful, and eventually raped her. Though there was no actual substantial evidence to back up the claim, White was swiftly fired from the band. Although Manson claims that the firing was long-time coming due to creative differences, and says to have not cut ties with Jeordie in regards to their friendship, Manson doesn’t follow White on any social media anymore and hasn’t been seen with him since the allegations broke.

* TheAntiNihilist: The core idea behind Manson himself.
--> I'm not a misanthrope. I'm not a nihilist. I'm not an atheist. I believe in spirituality, but it really has to come from somewhere else. I learned a long time ago, you can't try to change the world, you can just try to make something in it. I think that's my spirituality, it's putting something into the world. If you take all the basic principles of any religion, it's usually about creation. There's also destruction, but creation essentially. I was raised Christian. I went to a Christian school, because my parents wanted me to get a better education. But when I got kicked out I was sent to public school, and got beat up more by the public school kids. But then I'd go to my friend's Passover and have fun.

** It should be noted, though, that Manson himself denies being Social Darwinist, with him even contributing to many charity events, including the Manke-A-Wish foundation. At the end of the day, he comes off much more as a [[TheAntiNihilist Anti-Nihilist]]. (With above interview being probably one of the many examples of him being a Troll)
