Recipe for Hate Lyrics
It's about the exportation of culture and how it causes resentment and hate while at the same time we refuse to acknowledge the fact that our culture came about not by some bloodless revealed truth, as we are wont to believe, but came from and brought bloodshed, violence, bigotry, and hate itself.
its funny cu i learned about this in school today -> the en talks about how our ancestors, the founding fathers, columbus, are glorified by our education and holidys, etc, when in reality columbus was responsible for the arbitrary slaughtering and rap of over 250,000 native americans, and indirectly responsibly for the inhabitance of the americas by europeans. yet we have a holiday for him, and if you read any 5th rgade textbook no mention of their interaction is stated... all it says is that he came and american was forme and they ate thanksgiving dinner.
You really bought the crap in schools today. Mr Graffin wants you to believe the false history. Why don't you read "The 5000 year leap", or the "Road to Serfdom". Oh you won't get those books in school. I'm Sorry to inform you of the fact you are being indoctrinated. Why don't you question even the people who you hold in such high esteem like Mr. Graffin, who is less than honest in his lyrics. Who dispises capitalism but gets rich from it.Bad religion is an extremley dishonest band who is guilty of the same things they accuse others of....

THEY USE THE DOWN TRODDEN AS A TOOL AND REALLY CARE LESS ABOUT THEM. I DIPISE THIS BAND.
..Are you really that stupid or are you just being a troll? ..Honest question. I guess I have to go ahead and treat the situation as if you're the former.. though I am hoping that's not the case, because that comment was just amazingly uninformed and unintelligent in multiple aspects.

Um, no. Did you not read the post that you replied to? He is not telling us to believe in the "false history" that you're so mindlessly ranting on about. "Indoctrinated" means to be taught from a particular point of view. Do you actually understand what you're saying? Everything you...

Such a good song. I can't believe how good Bad Religion is at comming up with lyrics. It amazes me.
Ummm...just look at the man's name writing the lyrics: Gregory Walter Graffin, Ph.D . Any clues? ;)

This song will always be timeless as long as America considers itself a superpower who must democratize other countries in the name of "freedom."
Did anyone else hear "inject us with thorazine" instead of "injust such a potent seed"?
yea pretty much. the optimism and seemingly progress of spreading culture creating diversity; liberating countries who never asked for help and then forcing culture on them ;-)... seems like we'r movin on up huh?
;-) just a recipe.

Burn a flag!
In school, we're taught to worship our ancestors who came from Europe to what is now America and slaughtered most of the native people living there and forced their own way of living on the people living there whom they did not kill. Greg is saying that this is asinine and that modern day people who worship these ancestors are also asinine people.
This song more than almost any other BR song supports my viewpoint that they are actually a very very religious band. You could have pulled these lyrics right out of saint Francis’ mouth. Or any mystical thinker of any of the world’s wisdom paths. Ironically, bad religion and Black Sabbath are two of the most religious bands. It’s like listening to a heavy gospel song. Punk is a spiritual awakening.
