I guess this subject could be touchy.

For reference, peopele say this song is relevant today:

“The third single off the punk classic Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables, “Kill the Poor” portrays a right-wing celebration of neutron bombs being sicced on poor people in the name of economic growth in the satirical style of Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal.“

Punk and HipHiop seem to be the only genres with a big political edge.

Fact is the poor , especially poor minorities are doing better economically in the Trump economy .

The media /left predicted he would crash the economy in general and that things would be terrible for minorities but turns out Trump was better for them .

This is why the #walkaway movement is a thing , people are opening their eyes to this propaganda.

The Dems have been going more towards socialism .

Take a look at Venezuela today and see if that’s a great situation , versus what the poor have in America today.

Socialism is also responsible historically for millions dead . It should be denounced in America not glorified .

DK's are really over rated. Jello has a huge vinyl collection though.

I see no difference between that and Aerosmith's Eat the Rich.

Surely the massive amounts of corruption had nothing to do with what is happening in Venezuela. /s

I think this is more relevant today:

Who's the real patriot, the Archie bunker slobs waving flags? Or the people with the guts to work for some real change.

Sarcastic response to critics of the welfare state, and a decent punk song, and Biafra is an original hard left agitator. But off that same album, take a look at the lyrics for "California Uber Alles" and you'll see the DKs weren't exactly one sided in their outrage. Hell, listen to Biafra's spoken word stuff. He's an equal opportunity peddler of anti-authority agitprop.
