    The lyrics go about the plethora of atrocities committed by the US to Latin America, I will try to provide some translation later if I can, but this part is pretty relevant:

    America is not just the USA, papá

    This is from Tierra del Fuego to Canada

    You have to be very brute, very hollow (in the head)

    It’s like saying that Africa is just Morocco.

    Obviously it doesn’t rhyme when translated.

      Not just the US, but imperialism throughout history, from the Spanish to Pinochet. The scene where it showed the native man held spread eagle like Túpac Amaru in particular is so powerful if you know the history.
