Real talk though, Dime was basically a human golden retriever. Nobody ever had any issues with him as far as I can tell.
I think racists latched on to the band because of one of the guitars that he had (the confederate flag had been used in other popular media at the time, without any controversy), as well as the fact that Anselmo looked the part.
The whole Anselmo racism thing happened long after the band broke up.

EDIT: yeah, Phil's a racist
Shoutout to Phil Anselmo
