 Half the “patriotic songs” the right tries to claim, like “Born in the USA” or “Fortunate Son,” are among the most unpatriotic songs imaginable lol

People act like the left doesn’t have patriotic songs just because they’re not superficial. Ours have MEANING. -John Brown’s Body -This Land is Your Land -Battle Hymn of the Republic -Solidarity Forever -The Times They Are A-Changin’

I hear Free Bird by Lynard Skynard being used as a patriotic song a lot because of the freedom motif and the kickass guitar riff but it really has nothing to do with America 💀

They hear John Fogerty sing “some folks were born, made to wave the flag, ooh that red, white and blue” 5 seconds in and then completely ignore the very next line where he sings about how the U.S. will betray you lmao
