This song. Let me talk about this song for a minute.
Yesterday I listened to a “sports talk” radio station in Dallas sneer at this song. Act like it’s typical country hokum. Speculate that @AintGottaDollar is an industry k-pop creation. The only time they gave him a high five is when they found out he has some songs about weed. They said it was an “alt-right” viral fad. And they wondered how the song got so popular so fast.
It never even occurred to them that this song could resonate with real people. It’s as though people like Oliver Anthony don’t exist.
Can’t exist. And for them in their perfectly stereotypical upper middle class suburban faded and cliched counter culture personalities…these people don’t exist. But let me tell you. They do. People fed up with a two tiered system of justice, of cultural homogeneity, of parasitic taxes that seem to get politicians rich and do nothing for the people of real need, of forced group think, and ever increasing mechanisms of control. People who have realized all the empty promises is pandering…designed to get us to trade our money and liberty for votes and control.
And while Oliver Anthony sings about Appalachia and rural white culture…this same sentiment exists in rust belt factories, western cowboy culture, immigrant grinders, increasingly inner city black culture…and let me tell you in unexpected places like Hawaiian culture in Lahaina.
So keep being too cool…keep pretending everyone else doesn’t exist…keep acting like all that matters is your projection of anti-racism or whatever is the trending virtue signal, keep limiting yourself to upper middle class white college educated two income suburban drones or single rich white women…keep calm and carry on.

It’s not that the rich men north of Richmond don’t know these guys are “out there”, they just don’t think we matter.
