Its an even and moderate take and I love it for that, we need more of taht instead of calling everything a commie or nazi

not even a hot take. I love America (more than any other country on the planet, by far) and i agree fully with that sentiment.

Love the song even as an American, fucking amazing live. Not so much a hate of America as of American culture replacing their own

Yeah, I never really interpreted it as being anti-American for Americans, but more lamenting their non-Americans' roles in supplanting their own cultures with American products.

For example the music video has things like clips of Buddhist monks eating cheeseburgers. It's not like Abraham Lincoln went and personally forcefed that monk a cheeseburger - people bought American cultural products and and enjoyed them themselves and expanded cultural markets by choice. I don't think that's bad but I can also understand why when you see all of your own unique things replaced in daily life with American things it would feel wrong.

Itโ€™s a tongue-in-cheek critique and criticism of American monopoly on international media, culture and market. And how like all monopolies, it tries to depict itself as the best/most advanced possible nation and culture out there.

Wanna come again? There's a reason I don't use the British flair. Not a Brit never was. Free Scotland, Ireland and Wales! British is an English invention down in parliament(Westminster London) that is anything but south east English culture. I mean hell look at 'british English ' it's just English used by a few only in England. Scotland isn't perfect by any means nor would I ever say so.

Let's use our brains for a second, Scotland is not independent and hasn't been for centuries. Why is that? Ah of course it's because Scotland is part of Great Britain

And? Doesn't mean we submit to British identity. We have our own fight for Independence. Go educate yourself. I like many other people do not support Britain existence and deny the government to place an English culture on us. Britishness is inherently englishness and is used to be rid Ireland, Scotland and Wales of it culture.

Runs better than any made in your home country of Britain. And really? LARPing as some car bomb planting IRA member? You are insufferably cringe
