Book excerpt: Keyboardist Stephen Bier brought up Marilyn Manson's Antisemitic Nazi Music when Stephen Bier filed a breach of contract lawsuit for "sick and disturbing" purchases. Stephen 'Pogo' Bier accused Manson of using the band's funds to buy a giant collection of Nazi memorabilia. Marilyn Manson's record label at the time did not know how to react, but the label spent money promoting Manson anyway. Most executives seemed to stay silent, but that didn't keep Manson quiet. He appeared to retaliate in 2009 by coming out with a song titled Pretty as a Swastika. Now the record label executives were upset. The label dropped him, but Manson continued to come out fighting. New labels asked to represent Marilyn Manson's music. He insisted the old record label told him to take the swastika song off the album and replace the symbol with the symbol of a dollar bill ($). Business came first. Executives wanted to sell the lyrics with the Swastika, but hide the Swastika behind a dollar to avoid bringing attention to hate, anger against Jews as well as Antisemitism. Marilyn Manson created new images resembling a Swastika and a label in London requested to represent Manson from the United Kingdom to a global audience with worldwide publicity. The fight with his old label over banning Pretty as a Swastika as well as the fight with Stephen Bier over using the money collected to buy Nazi memorabilia was defended by Marilyn Manson. Thus Marilyn Manson was defending his antisemitism on his next website logo with four misdesigned 'M's like a broken cross similar to another Nazi Swastika theme in a musical genre Manson referred to as Suicide Rock.
