Cover art for The Pretender lyrics by Foo Fighters

It's a protest against the police state and the elite political class and government employee overclass. the emperor has no clothes. he's the pretender.

My Interpretation

@kanzei But where has Dave Grohl been during this "scamdemic" we have been living? Countless good young people out there in the world right now not being able to pay the bills, being evicted etc. All we hear from these "artists" is complete and frightening SILENCE. And after all of this is done, they come back from the shadows to ask us to pay for tickets at their concerts. This shill doesn't care for any of us.
