america has heroes, it's just that americans tend to fucking hate them. look at john brown. look at malcolm x. the list is long.

those people are dead, they were hated in their time, and they stood against the established order. they were killed by the established order.

they are not "heroes" in the sense of what an outside enemy looking to strike at the American social order would target, which is what the quote is about.
