I’ve recently been thinking deeply about this song and analyzing a bit, as I’m currently reading about Nixon and the bombing of Cambodia

From what I understand of this song (and excuse me if I’m wrong) is that it’s a direct attack on all of the college aged hippies who think they know the world until their shipped to Cambodia where they would have to face reality in an actual tyrannical communist regime. To be honest, this song sounds like a direct attack on me lmao even though I don’t identify as “preppy” by any means. I guess it’s because it’s the first time I’ve personally delved deep specifically into this point of history.

Isn’t Dead Kennedy’s socialist, or were they for capitalism? They seem to be directly criticizing the socialist hippie movement through the line:

You’re a star-belly snitch You suck like a leech You want everyone to act like you

Again, excuse me if I’m interpreting this wrong, but I figured this could bring about some relative discussion. What is the true meaning of this song? Have they ever specifically been asked?
