I believe this song is a reference to the Chinese prison system (which is also called Re-education through labour), which has been criticized for detaining those opposed to the government. This reference also shows the key meaning behind the line "white needles buried in the red" as well. In some instances what goes on is little short of brainwashing. Basically it's about fighting back against authority, the prosecution of free thought, and not buying into the lies that they want to force you to believe. Good song. :)
