Let’s conflate the prime thrust of the song with just the one line where he refers to food stamps and crucify him / not hold those sewing poverty and anxiety into society to account
The lyrics are extremely basic and not creative in the slightest. They make gestures towards working class solidarity, but are petit bourgeois attitudes wrapped in redneck aesthetics for comfortable middle class folk. Songs like this are a dime a dozen, and I’m sure you can find another song like this, especially in country/bluegrass, without the racist undertones.
Oh I don’t need the song I’m just pointing out how people are providing incompetent analysis like yourself
It’s a populist song it’s got fuck all to do with race. Try thinking for yourself and stop being an apologist for corporatism. What you don’t like is the populism because you like being lap dog to corporations so you try to conflate anything populist with racism because you saw someone else do it and you are a follower.
I didn’t say race. I said Confederacy. The lyrics continuously dogwhistle about the mason dixon line and the union / confederacy divide.
Can it really be populist and anti-corporate if it repeats talking points from Raegan? And if it was almost certainly funded and put in front of us by a think tank?
