* StupidStatementDanceMix: "I, Hedonist" has elements of this (though it's definitely not a dance song). A particularly amusing moment is near the end when one of the samples, probably cut up, says, "The Bible plainly states fornication and adultery are exciting."

* CapitalismIsBad: In particular, ''Collapse'' suggests that capitalist excess will cause a collapse of society, while ''Kentucky'' is almost entirely an account of the environmental and labour abuses inherent in coal mining. However, due to Lunn's belief that HumanityIsFlawed, it can be argued that his view of capitalism is more or less of abuse by society than the system itself.

* InherentInTheSystem: A recurring theme. A lot of the institutions Lunn depicts in his songs are corrupt because they depend upon the good behaviour of those who run them, and HumanityIsFlawed. A recurring implication is that humans can't be trusted with power over others; the way to fix these problems for good, Lunn is implying, is to increase the power people have over their own lives while decreasing the power they have over others'. (Anarchists, as well as some other groups like intersectional feminists, distinguish between "power-over", or hierarchical control over others' lives; "power-to", or personal autonomy; and "power-together", or the increased cooperative power of individuals working together toward a common goal.)
