  • The context for the song was Rage Against the Machines protest concert across from the DNC Convention where several people were shot with rubber bullets. I don’t think the line is sarcastic, it’s entirely a protest song against police and State brutality. Probably also saying that peaceful (and not disruptive) protest is just a “deer dance” against violent oppression.

    A rush of words. Pleading to disperse. Upon your naked walls, alive. A political call. The fall guy accord. We can’t afford to be neutral on a moving train

    Beyond the Staples Center you can see America. With its tired poor avenging disgrace. Peaceful loving youth against the brutality. Of plastic existence.

    A deer dance, invitation to peace. War staring you in the face, dressed in black
