It's pretty funny that the expectation on any man who picks up a guitar these days is not that he has a decent voice to go with, it's that his political ideology is "correct" and cohesive and that he makes sure to convey the entire thing in a 4 minute song.
The people getting their knickers in twist over this song are lost.

No one would give a shit if he wasn't doing racist dogwhistles

Why is it always race? I understand the welfare queen myth, but nothing about that song made me reflect on skin color.
Maybe it's just you.

Valid point. Hadn't considered that. Really stirred some self reflection in me and casual readers of this thread. Bravo.

The "welfare queen" myth was always a racist dogwhistle from the jump. This is well documented. The "you're the real racist for noticing racism" bullshit isnt going to fly here.

it's the US, it's safe to assume a thing about it is racist without even checking, because the US rests on a foundation of racism and it has seeped into every aspect of it.
but this one's racist even if you do research it.

Number 1 on Apple Music US and Global top 100 charts, but yeah - your opinion is the correct one, it's everyone else that is wrong.

mcdonald's has the best food and coca cola is the best drink and NFL Sunday Night Football is the greatest TV show ever made.

I think racism is wrong. Don't you?
-
Sure. Exactly which part of "Rich men North of Richmond" did you find racist?

Oh so you're a chud!
no wonder you didn't know what one was! -

Are you saying that only people of colour can be fat and lazy? That's fucked up.
-
"Are you saying only Hispanics can be immigrants who eat beans? Sounds like you're the real racist"

He's literally singing about being part of a downtrodden underclass, but you and your juvenile half-formed political ideology make it all seem so simple. White skin = oppressor, right?

Libs and wearing bigotry like a badge of honor, name a more iconic duo

So you admit that kpop is fantastic music then, since kpop is wildly internationally successful.

I will enjoy your removed by mod posts very much.

I don't think that's what this is about. I don't have that kind of expectation of musicians. But if a musician chooses to sing about being a chud i think they should get dunked on
-
What is a chud?
-
Sorry, I'm used to people familiar with our lingo. But, a guy who's angry about "welfare queens" is a pretty good example. Fascists, conservatives, rascists, xenophobes, right-wingers, homophobes,
etc. are chuds. If any comrades have a better definition I'll defer to that, but this is how I'd describe it off the top of my head-
Catch all term for proudly ignorant right wingers
