I speak outside what is recognized as the border between "reason" and "insanity". But I consider it a measure of my humanity to be written off by the living graves of a billion murdered lives. And I'm not ashamed of my recurring dreams about me and a gun and a different species (hint: starts with "h" and rhymes with "Neuman's") of carnage strewn about the stockyards, the factories and farms. Still I know as well as anyone that it does less good than harm to be this honest with a conscience eased by lies. But you cannot deny that meat is still murder. Dairy is still rape. And I'm still as stupid as anyone, but I know my mistakes. I have recognized one form of oppression, now I recognize the rest. And life's too short to make another's shorter-(animal liberation now!).

This is a fantastic song, easily one of the best from the album!
AND you really think the Germans were just tricked into murdering millions of people? I'm sure a lot of those people didn't even know what was happening until it was too late. And once they did know and did have the balls to protest it, they were shipped off with the Jews and slaughtered as well. Do you know anything about German culture at all? "German" doesn't equal "Nazi". You're not even a troll. You're just ignorant, epicmikenomore.
Rene Descartes was a 17th century philosopher who postulated that animals are merely biological machines who cannot suffer or feel pain, and that any reaction they might have is purely mechanical. Descartes is at least partly responsible for the prevalence of this view at at the time. As a result vivisection was carried out without anaesthetic for many years, and indeed is still carried out today.
