It sounds quite cynical, but it isn't. It is a sarcastic song about western hypocrisie. It is song about how capitalist media celebrates the virtues of western consumerist life, while at the same time it is build on lies. It sings about vices, that are celebrated by capitalism just becouse consumerism is the root of the contemporary system; even though those vices are actually real vices.
In fact it isn't against freedom, it is against a perverted kind of consumerist freedom.
"Freedom of speech won't feed my children", is also a call to arms against leaders who use democracy to legitimate certain illegitimate power relations.
