Anti-Flag release new song ‘Christian Nationalist’

ANTI-FLAG have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Christian Nationalist, is the brand new single from the political punk icons and is the first new music from the band since the release of 2017’s full-length American Fall and this year’s live album Live Vol. 2.

Speaking about the new song’s lyrical content, vocalist/guitarist, Justin Sane says, “history is full of wealthy and powerful people using religion and cultism to justify policies of oppression and inequality. Invariably, these policies target the most vulnerable in society so that elites can maintain their dominance. Today we see this same strategy employed by right wing politicians all over the world. Just as the anti-fascists of the 1930’s and 1940’s rejected the fascist ideologies of their era, we reject the neo-fascists of this era. Theocracy is dangerous and inherently anti-democratic because it restricts individual choice and provides an avenue by which politicians can claim a moral superiority over “the other”. It gives political cover and justification for policies and actions which might otherwise be deemed morally objectionable, inhuman, or adverse to the best interest of the country.”
