Fuck The Border

It's about how globalisation is fucking up countries, and how immigration policies and borders are unfair to the people living in these fucked up countries

Have you read the lecture about nationstates? If you ask me national pride is an oxymoronic state of mind, it represents united selfishness which really makes little sense and could be considered the fault of humaninty. fuckcase titsex

This song is basically an unanswerable criticism of border enforcement.

This song is more relevant than ever now that the issue of immigration is gaining so much attention. This song is the ultimate rallying cry for those of us on the side of human and civil rights.

From propagandhi.com:

Some people have to stay and fight for survival in the country they live in while others have to leave to survive. Corporations cross international borders all the time in search of people to exploit for profit and no one stops them. They call it globalization. On the other hand, the victims of corporate domination are told that they can't cross borders in search of better lives, and are forced to stay and deal with the social, economic and environmental messes the companies leave behind when they inevitably move their operations to places with even more "favourable business climatesî (re: lower wages, lax environmental laws, tax breaks). Looks like capitalism and human-rights don't mix.

jesus christ i love this song :)

I find it hilarious that every house-punk anarchist and dimestore neuroanalyst that's posted so far automatically assumes that the singer agrees with the girl he's quoting. I think matdamc is on the right track, but I disagree about the "they just fucked" aspect. It seems like a matter-of-fact retelling of a series of events. How the singer feels about what the girl is blabbing is left out intentionally. He obviously wants her words to be the focus of the song.

That said, modern feminist ideals are intensely skewed and feminism in general is more about vengeance for imaginary or co-opted crimes (i.e. self-victimization) than it is about equality. In other words, most feminists are full of shit and have never been subject to any more unfair bias than your average fat dude.

ugh.. mispost.

This song makes me glad, that I live in a country, where things are alright for us and people are treated well. Normally I don't care that much about human rights though... I'm more of an animal rights type of person.

as a matter of fact, it's a song about american hatred for the mexicans and all the others who come from third world countries to find a better life in america. like, they're stealing our jobs and such shit but noone ever wonders what it's like in their countries and what they're running away from and how no one realizes that it's the american people and the american government that makes life so difficult in those countries and make people flee to america, legally or illegally

this song makes me wanna cry because of all the hatred which is so evident, everywhere

Musically, this song fucking shreds. one of the best songs to play LOUD. lyrically, it is just as good. not meant to be a scholarly essay on border politics and morality because who really needs that shit? it is an in your face criticism that addresses the most fundamental and most ignored issues with the US/Mexico border. MissNeurotic, you're from Finland, but how can you POSSIBLY say something as callous as "I don't care that much about human rights though...I'm more of an animal rights type of person."? All struggles and sufferings are interlinked.
