Idk, I interpreted that song as sarcastic as most of his songs are.

Perhaps, I like to give the benefit of the doubt. There is the line "We don't put folks to death for having different opinions," which seems to have at least a hint of sarcasm given the mass shootings that occur in America frequently.

Sometimes his songs are a bit "both sides" or liberal/(non-ML) anarchist, but I enjoy listening to them by giving them a socialist interpretation, though some lines it's hard to do and I just ignore them. I also hope he grows and develops his consciousness more (as well as his fans), and sometimes it's nice seeing an artist do so and witnessing their journey as they express it within their art.
