He is punching down and attacking a group of people who are suffering in “the new world” just like him, and a fucking bag of cookies is one of the few joys they can still aquire.

I know a lot of people that are quite overall politically liberal that feel this way. I know a lot of people that get upset at the idea of inmates being given "free" educations in prison because they still have student loans 20 years after school. People that support the ideas of helping people up, that are fully on board with LGBTQ+ rights across the board, think DEI is a good idea, think it's critical that women have bodily autonomy, and so on, but still have a knee-jerk reaction to things that they don't fully get, or haven't had explained to them.

I don't know if he meant the song that way, or what. I do know that the people coming into the White House in a few months aren't likely to make things any better for people like him. Or people like you. Or people like me.
