Theme

A cover of the punk band **Fear's** song. It's a sharp, satirical commentary on aggressive nationalism and isolationism. The lyrics reject international cooperation (**'We don't need no hands across the sea'**) and espouse a doctrine of militarism, suspicion, and elimination of dissent. Phrases like **'Survival is superiority'** and **'manifest destiny'** highlight a worldview based on hatred and purity.

Lyrics
Eliminate the incompetents! Differences don't exist in harmony! Survival is superiority. We don't need no hands across the sea! We've got... Foreign policy The lines are drawn! Establish the new order! Suspect everyone Know your enemies! Know your enemies! We've got... Foreign policy Hatred is purity! Weakness is disease! Every barrio It's manifest destiny! We've got... Foreign policy
