MacKaye refuses to advertise in mainstream or corporate media, never performs at events where admission is more than $7, and consistently promotes anti-war and civil rights causes alongside his music. He regularly attends left-wing organized protests and events in Washington D.C.

The song "Straight Edge" was written by MacKaye for his band, Minor Threat, and was released in 1981 on Minor Threat's self-titled EP. It was a song that described a life free of the "drugs" and "sex" part of the "sex, drugs and rock'n roll" banner originating as a rebellion in the 1960s - smoking, drinking, and drug use - to what wasn't socially tolerated previously. It began to influence youth culture as Minor Threat gained popularity through numerous live shows and through sales of the song on their EP. Although to MacKaye the song did not represent a philosophy or a movement, over time people adopted the philosophy of the song and many bands began to label themselves straight edge, founding the straight edge movement.

The chorus is the phrase "I've got the straight edge" repeated several times; MacKaye says that he meant by abstaining from drugs and alcohol, he had an advantage, or an "edge", when compared to those who indulged too heavily.
