Interesting that Buffy said the song is about individual responsibility. Jordan Peteson says exactly the same thing, e.g. that the horrors of Hitler, Stalin, etc were not about these leaders' charisma but about the lack of individual responsibility; he always emphasizes individual responsibility over group identification (his overriding political philosophy). Two very different people, but the elevated spirit (Buffy) and the psychologist/intellectual reached the same conclusion!
