That sucks. How will they effectively advertise the new instagram feature that allows you to feel a synthetic form of being connected while trapped behind a figurative/physical wall of fear and self isolation?

Like... how would you use this song, non-ironically, for facebook? Who does this appeal to?

Maybe they just liked the tune. A lot of people don't think very deeply about what a song means anyway. I remember that the high school senior class that graduated a year before mine had Brick in the Wall as their class song. Played at their graduation while walking out and everything. I don't think any of the administration had a clue what the song was about until it became a big talking points after graduation.
Maybe, but do you really try to offer someone a huge amount of money just to play a tune you like?
