You people obviously don't understand the punk psyche. This song is from back in Reagan's administration. I don't think they were trying to say that the UK was alot better, but they certainly weren't the major focal point of the nuclear buildup during the cold-war like the USSR and USA. Apocalypse/nuclear holocaust was a big theme of UK 82 and American Hardcore, and Japanese Hardcore of the times.
They were trying to say that the USA is certainly not the place of freedom it professed to be. Democracy was and arguably still is a sham. I don't need to get into the proof. Politics don't work, no matter what spectrum.
Don't get your self-righteous American heads all-heated up, please. Go comment on the music that best reflects people like you: mainstream happy-moron garbage. And no don't say I hate Americans, because I don't...I just hate naive tools.
