This song is about 40 years too late... the collective forces of societal idiocy aren't so much concerned with individual mindsets anymore... we're all caught in the press between the cattle-guides. Personalities are something forged at a higher level of societal experience. Seems to me we are mobbing together against an amorphous threat... a great squeezing as everything shrinks in the growth of marketplace expansion. Even music... that is, actual songs are a bit of an anachronism in the new impoverishment.
There's a reason why fast and furious, smash and grab, and flash mobs are what low rebellious culture looks like now. They are resonant with corporate greed and pr... this is how far gone the fight is. The most ardent dissent looks like a beard with breasts. The most counter culture thing one can do is have sex without paying for it--consensually.

I'm actually kind of impressed! You can tell he digs the song and wishes he wrote it first...
We have a very limited idea of freedom these days.
Ouch... Black Flag's version with Morris on vocals is way better.
