You hate your country
Brainwash Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
died to give you the freedom -
that you have?
Your life is nothing but fake
you don't stay true to the words -
that you preach -
Chorus:
that gives you everything you've got -
you hate a country -
when will you finally wake up?
Your red ideas -
consumed your childish mind -
so fuckin' much -
That you never even bothered to realize -
that the only reason you have success -
is because of this place -
So easy to talk big on your pedestal -
of money and fame -
come down to the real level -
and then we'll see how -
tough you really are.
In Brainwash's song "You hate your country," the lyrics paint a picture of an individual who devalues their country, despite the countless sacrifices that had been made by their family to ensure the freedom that they now enjoy. The listener is forced to reflect on the hypocrisy of the individual who fails to stay true to their words and instead spreads their anti-nationalistic views. The overarching theme is a call for individuals to remain patriotic and grateful for their freedoms, rather than criticizing their country without acknowledging the benefits that it provides.
The first verse asks the listener to consider an essential question: "How many of your family died to give you the freedom that you have?" This line emphasizes that freedom is not something that just appears out of nowhere, rather it is something that must be fought for and won. The second line emphasizes the need to remain truthful and genuine in one’s actions and expressions, rather than being hypocritical. The chorus rings harshly, calling out individuals who spite their country despite everything it has provided them. The verse that follows warns against letting ideology cloud one's judgment, providing chilling commentary on the danger of blindly following ideological movements that don't reflect the realities of the world. The song crescendos with the final verse, challenging individuals talking big from positions of success to come down to a level with the rest of the people and see for themselves the difficulties an average person faces.
Overall, the song is a powerful call to action for individuals to respect and appreciate the freedom and liberties that their country has provided them with. It encourages people to show gratitude, stay true to their beliefs, and to fight against the rising tide of narrow-minded views that threaten to undermine the core ideals of democracy.

Hello, I am (unfortunately) an inhabitant of your southeastern neighbouring country. The one with pizza pasta mafia Berlusconi Monica Bellucci and Carla Bruni.
Ok let's get serious tho.
In 1994, when I was 4 years old, Silvio Berlusconi took his first steps into politics. At the time, he was a very successful entrepreneur, owning 3 TV channels (when he started his media empire in 1980, Italy only had 3 TV channels, all of them State-owned, and colour TV was 3 years old).
In retrospect, those 14 years were crucial to establishing his ascent, and it is even more crucial to remember that Italy was still reeling after a nationwide scandal that revealed political corruption at all levels of government: it was such a telluric shift that we often talk about First Republic (lasting from 1946, when we chose Republic over Monarchy via referendum, until 1994) and Second Republic (from 1994 onwards). Of course, Berlusconi was involved in it, and many saw his ascent to politics as his attempt to get away not only scot-free, but with even more power than before. He is involved in countless scandals and legal proceedings and he hasn't been condemned by any tribunal (at time of recording).
But it wasn't until his election in 2001 that he really achieved his goals (not so coincidentally, the protests at the 27th G8 in Genoa, which resulted in more police brutality than you would ever want to read about, happened in the same year).
His demonisation of the left and the move of left wing politicians to neoliberalism deprived Italy of any relevant left wing party: the UK has Jeremy Corbyn, the USA have Bernie Sanders, France has Jean-Luc Mélenchon, we have... a bunch of misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, racist, disgruntled, old, white, male tankies and a few well-intentioned but scattered and utterly insular parties and movements. His control over the media meant the sacking of left wing journalists from public television as well as racist and anti-communist propaganda being fed to us 24/7. His crass mannerism paved the way to fascist dingbats like Matteo Salvini and Giorgia Meloni. His liberalisation of the economy was continued by every other political force after him, workers' rights are a joke and we have no minimum wage. Voters have little to no trust in politicians, and we've had four technocratic governments (which are a way to implement unpopular neo-liberal austerity policies in a very undemocratic way) since 1994: the fourth, lead by banker Mario Draghi, is still ongoing.
But even without him, Italy would still super suck.
People of colour are not allowed any voice because getting Italian citizenship is a daunting task if you don't have Italian ancestry (ironically, people of Italian descent who don't speak the language and have never set foot in the country have Italian citizenship), and racial segregation is insane: as anecdotal evidence, my high school hosted around 2000 students every year and, to the best of my memory, the number of students of colour I met in there was four. Not four percent. Four. Two of them were adoptees and one moved schools when he failed his first year.
Our fascist and colonial past is rarely, if ever, brought into question, and the system is structurally weak against the resurgence of fascism, as we've been seeing recently.
The Holy See/Vatican City interferes a lot in our politics, and as a result any attempt to fight bigotry is quickly rendered useless: a law proposal aimed at punishing offences based on someone's gender or sexual orientation was rejected in Parliament in late October, while right wing politicians were literally celebrating.
The South has been underdeveloped and left to its own devices since the inception of Italy as a unified country, and as a result criminality, corruption and environmental degradation are rampant.
And I could go on a lot more but I think I won't, this is already too much for me.
It may surprise you that we see the situation in France as favourable, but remember: many people of my generation or younger don't remember a time when things were... I wouldn't say good, but even remotely tolerable. Like Ian Danskin of Innuendo Studios once said, things stay terrible long enough, you almost miss when they were merely bad.
This trainwreck of a peninsula is completely and utterly f-d and has no future, but you can still save yourselves before you become us. Or alternatively, we can join forces and overthrow our f-d up systems, and celebrate sharing wine and cheese later (contrary to popular belief, we have a lot more than just Gorgonzola, Mozzarella, Parmesan and Pecorino).
Yours sincerely,
a fellow disgruntled Romance-speaking lefty.

Hey salut ! Superbe vidéo, très bien écolo et résumé, après je ne suis pas totalement d’accord avec ta vision des choses, la France reste un des pays où les citoyens sont les mieux traités, étant étudiant avec peu de moyens et descendant des immigrants du milieu du XXe siècle, je suis très reconnaissant envers l’état qui (malgré tous ces défauts de gouvernance) reste relativement humains comparés à nos voisins Européens ou d’Outre-Atlantique, de plus les universités et les grandes écoles sont remplies dans la majorité de personnes pleines d’humanités mais surtout capables de bien se renseigner et de s’instruire.
Très personnellement je suis assez positif sur l’avenir du pays, et en ce qui concerne le fonctionnement de la cinquième république je trouve que la séparation des pouvoirs est relativement équilibrée, du moins je le préfère au système parlementaire type anglo-saxon ou encore Japonais (qui est à mon humble avis un des pires systèmes démocratiques qui puissent exister) - dans lequel le dirigeant du pays change constamment suite à des jeux de pouvoir et des guerres intestinales internes au parti tous les 6 mois.
Le président en France a le pouvoir de faire changer les choses sans pour autant tomber dans la dictature, l’Assemblée Nationale et le Sénat fonctionnent relativement assez bien comme contre-balance, de plus la justice bien que défaillante sur certains point, est complètement indépendante du pouvoir en place et non politisée et tend vers un système de réhabilitation contrairement à certains pays comme les USA. Et pour revenir sur le sujet de l'élection, bien que je me retrouve plus dans ce que dit Mélenchon, je ne me sent pas vraiment représenté, par exemple je n'aime pas du tout sa politique internationale, il propose des idées qui tendent vers un isolationnisme notamment au sein de l'Union Européenne et étant profondément pro-Européen ça m'a toujours dérangé.
Bref je trouve ça bien d’être critique envers son pays, son camp, voire soi-même et c’est un exercice très important au bon fonctionnement de la démocratie, de plus y'a pas plus français que de contester le pouvoir en place et peu importe le bord politique de ce dernier, c'est ça selon moi qui fais une des forces de la démocratie française et c’est la raison qui me permet d’être optimiste pour l’avenir du pays, on parle de désespoir mais je ne suis pas si d’accord, autour de moi je voit des gens engagés à faire en sorte de vivre dans une meilleure société, plus ouverte et accueillante, du moins déjà a leur échelle et la volonté semble s’étendre de plus en plus.
Bref bref merci pour la vidéo !

As I mainly talked about Macron, and didn't have time to go in details on the rise of the far right in France (future video?) I want to emphasize here to French voters that as much as I dislike Macron, I clearly won't vote for Marine Le Pen and don't recommend anybody do so.
@maxcano2063
YEEEES
@andreap2320
I still don't understand how it's possible you push your own narrative against Macron before a very crucial and delicate ballot vote, with an ongoing war few km away from France. Considering also your criticism about manipulation, this video probably represents a genuine expression of it.
@cyantific9230
Thanks for writing this comment, I believe it is really important which is why I’d encourage you to pin it!
@AliceCappelle
@@andreap2320 Come on Andrea, I did talk about the far right multiple times in this video... I'm not supporting Le Pen's ideas as it's very clearly explained in the video and in previous videos I've produced. There is absolutely nothing in this video encouraging people to vote for her.
@aweirdredguy3885
as a fellow french,i would say that i feel hopeless
@ellax325
As an American, I feel for the French who are stuck between a bad choice and an even worse choice. It's not great.
@MariLoreYT
Lol, as a Mexican I feel it too. Guess it happens everywhere
@-natmac
Canadian checking in! Same.

As a Russian, I’d prefer having a choice between a giant douche and a turd sandwich rather than no choice at all. I think this douche-turd dichotomy is an inherent part of democracy and the universal suffrage. Nobody has come up with a better solution yet, and you can see what the other alternative has done to Russia, Ukraine and Europe in general.
