its about the glorification of colonialism in the education system, and probably in general. The line "i'm the bitter beneficiaery" suggests this is coming from a cynical white person's perspective of what they are being taught because they know they ultimately benefited from such horrible historical epidemics yet feel angry and maybe ashamed because of that. I wish i could find more songs with this take about wanting to expose and reject ideas of heroicism concerning white heritage and supremecy, its a good message.
