This song does such a good job with communicating the conservaive trinity:
- persecution complex
- mad about things they themselves voted for
- mad that the other is getting something, which is obviously undeserved
In his interviews he claims he is a centrist but takes issues with teachers turning girls into boys and boys into girls.
where are the teachers
tell me 
I want the gender
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.
Dude, no one is above getting mocked. Stop it with the butthurt lol
“Why don’t people want to listen to my racist song?”
Also the song sucks
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.
I think racism is wrong. Don't you?
Sure. Exactly which part of "Rich men North of Richmond" did you find racist?
They’re dogwhistles. The parts about “the obese milkin welfare” and “taxes not ought to pay for your bags of fudge rounds.” Literally just Reagan era welfare queen rhetoric. If you don’t recognize those as racist dogwhistles you’ve been living under a rock for at least 40 years.
But even if you don’t see the dogwhistles I hope you can understand how the song is punching down on poor people
It's punching down on fat, lazy people, and I'm ok with that.
Unlike you, with dad's boat dealership and the hard work you've done minding your manners and doing chores so you get the boat dealership someday! 
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?
Hey chud, meet the other white meat 
Is hexbear just a 4chan psyop to make the extreme left look insane?
Why are these people so extreme?! All i did was expose my rascism. Can't a white man just talk about hating people and be respected as superior to those he hates anymore!
insane
You apparently believe anyone who disagrees with you is mentally ill which by your presented context means they are loathsome and deserving of hatred because you don't like them and like to call people you don't like insane.
In other words, you're an ableist hateful piece of shit. Get flushed.
TIL calling out racism is “insane”
Post hog liberal
He’s not part of any downtrodden underclass, and he’s singing extremely basic and uncreative lyrics that make gestures towards working class issues while barely touching on any of those issues, all the while making sure to punch down on the “wrong” poor people. It’s petit bourgeois attitudes wrapped in redneck aesthetics made for comfortable middle class folk who feel “downtrodden” because taxes exist, welfare exists, and there are people who are richer than them. There is no solidarity with the actual working class. There are only aesthetic gestures made towards the working class so these middle class folk can delude themselves into believing they’re the salt of the earth and the backbone of the USA.
He's literally singing about being part of a downtrodden underclass,
He's literally stealing valor to pander to poor people, and a specific subset given the "welfare queen" rhetoric.
Oh so you're a chud! 
no wonder you didn't know what one was!
Libs and wearing bigotry like a badge of honor, name a more iconic duo
Hahahaha so then don’t act like you don’t understand how it’s racist. The racism is what you like about it!
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" 
Lol…absolutely amazing. “He didn’t literally say he hates Black people so how could it be racist?”
Do you understand what a dogwhistle is? And I now see the Isle of Man flag so maybe you’re not American, and I don’t know how common this sort of thing is in other countries-but this is literally just Reagan era welfare queen rhetoric. It’s an extremely common stereotype that depicts Black women as lazy non-contributing members of society that rely on public welfare and the tax money of “real hardworking [white] Americans” to support themselves.
Go anywhere in the USA in the past 40 years and bring up welfare and you will undoubtedly get people who buy into this stereotype. Hell there are people in this thread who still buy into this. And yeah of course they aren’t explicitly racist because that’s looked down upon these days, but that’s always the subtext, that was the subtext 40 years ago and that’s the subtext today: “Why should I, a white person, have any of my money go to any Black person.”
This isn't political memes
