This week, Bruce Springsteen claimed that he was standing amount “embarrassed Americans”.
This coming from the man who sings “Born in the USA,” but the signs were there all along. Springsteen’s hit may sound like a patriotic jam, but its intention is often misheard or misunderstood. With lyrics like “So they put a rifle in my hand / Sent me off to a foreign land / To go and kill the yellow man,” the song was a political statement from the very beginning.
The anti-war/anti-America message may have been subtle then, but now Springsteen is making his displeasure with the United States known across the world. His most overt criticism of his home country came this week during a concert in Melbourne, Australia.

Springsteen has been a socialist/communist for many years. l knew about it back in the 80s! This is no surprise to me.

Don’t get me started regarding this draft dodging hypocrite! Where was his voice when the poor Vietnamese people were being brutally murdered by communist, and doing anything to leave that country! Quite frankly, I was embarrassed for those like him, and now care so deeply for these unvetted illegals! Shameful!

Why do performers and actors think we should listen to them about politics? They are paid performers…I have no interest in your thoughts on anything. Sing, act and shut up.
