Dont even mention Against Me! in a lawrence arms thread, they're fucking rubbish compared to Lawrence regardless if the intro is arpeggio chords like that fucking piece of shit song Miami.
The song is back-and-forth sarcasm about evolution. "This is not a celebration of slipping through some crack." As in, by evolutionary chance, humans evolved to what we are today. Contrastly, no matter how much we think that evolutionary chance was a good thing, humans are the "resulting trash" because that evolutionary chance ultimately is causing the planets destruction.
Toby Keith's horses and Toby Keith's men finally put us all in our place because he's making his money blissfully unaware of the destruction of earthkind going on around us, yet has a massive fanbase while he writes bullshit songs about tractors. TLA however has a message and a meaning yet still drives in shitty fans and lives the punk-band life (which is described by the "this is the fucking slop line/chowline lyric. They're all living destitute while Toby Keith is on top of the world.) I personally think thats the best "FUCK YOU!" line i've ever heard in a song.
The "its a wonderful hug when there is so much more to love...when theres steaks and hearts jammed in your face." line is necessarily about veganism, but more about the sloth/glutton phenomenon that is American lifestyle. American citizens are among the most overweight in the world, etc.
