Slayer - Blood Red Meaning

Blood Red Lyrics
-
I am 32 years old. I already have a girlfriend but am also looking for a third party in our relationship considering we are in an open relationship.
I adore cats andove war. -
About the Tienanmen Square protests and the Communist dictatorship in China. "Blood" for violence, "Red" for Communism.
-
Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 in China. The opening line: "Peaceful confrontation meets warmachine", is the famous recording of the tiny human being in front of four gigantic tanks.
The song hints a general anti-communistic oppressive government ("spilling blood throughout humanity" and "oppression ruled by bloodshed"). The line "No disguise can deface evil, that stains the primitive sickle", is a dig at the Soviet Union symbol and flag. Also "Growing opposition with words as ammunition, expressions of life's liberties", aimes more at the starting downfall of that union, than any words they were able to say in China.
Still relevant after 20 years!
