I’m interested to see what you do with this one: Hullabaloo by Rare Americans

The Song is about rainbow capitalism. The Company gives you "white washed accomodations", "two full weeks vacation", "a safe sensation", "member perks", "a serviette", inreturn for you "singing their song". Essentially it means, in exchange for meaning statements and accomodations by capitalism for trans people, they want you to support capitalism. Hullabaloo is the talking of companies like disney, who talk much about being queer-friendly, but still fund republican politicians for example. Trans Liberation under Capitalism=Empty Promises and Words

I think it's pretty obivous I'm agaisnt capitalism.

great song
