It's because those are mostly the women who want to go out with him.


Where did he say anything about women in his song?


How many men are 5’3”?


some?


Less than 1% in America. 30% of women. But sure he’s not writing about women.

I’m old enough to remember when the Virginia workin’ man had a good senator in James Webb-D.

Enough. About 10%.


Not in America. But sure let’s say it’s 10% You think he’s writing about men?

People are fools

You can’t hear 4000 people chant sucede and simply dismiss it. Unless you are a fool


Yes you can

Only insane people think secession is a legit possibility.

Lol go for it, Mississippi. We’ll miss your economic power.


You are a fool that never studied warfare. You think having the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi River security compromised is some punch line?

Wait. Are you talking about this songwriter? Oliver Anthony?

Where in his song did he say anything about heavyset women?


Apparently women on welfare are the real villains to him, because again, most men are not 5’3”

If he wasn’t just another blathering misogynist I’d say maybe he’s onto something but he’s seriously complaining about the food insecure in 2023 and that’s about as “punching down” as I can imagine. The people who are getting food stamps aren’t rich. They also use the drugs he’s worried about at lower rates than the rest of the American public. Hating the poor to feel better about yourself isn’t interesting to me.


He said nothing about women. That is YOUR stereotyping.
And, he is not complaining about the poor. He is complaining about the ridiculous government programs that perpetuate obesity and poor health by providing funding that allows these people to purchase junk - yes JUNK food with taxpayer funding.

I am getting the distinct feeling that you are more upset about the people who can relate to this song than the songwriter himself.

That’s right, the rich “men” up north. The doctors, lawyers, small business owners that employ the working class.

Got it.



The south now has a higher GDP than the north.


No, it has a larger GDP than the Northeast. That excludes so much of the Northern economy, and it includes places like Northern Virginia, the very place this guy is singing about. The Rich Men North of Richmond fuel the VA economy.


The south now has the largest GDP of any region. In fact, just 5 southern states alone outperform all other regions.

My condolences on the loss of your region's preeminent status.


And most are blue


Anyone with access to a blue/red state map can quickly see how laughable this is. There aren't enough blue states in the south for this to be possible. You need to stop lying to try to win arguments because it sounds ridiculous.


The five richest southern states by total (not per capita GDP) are Texas, Florida, Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina. Virginia and Georgia are purple at best. Most of the GDP is made in the blue parts of them.


This is a battle between the have and have nots...not sure it's specifically D vs. R

If the song is meant to be a political song, then the guy is a moron because wealthy people will always side with their money/security over party affiliation.

Apparently they are taker states, because the red states still take more in taxes than they provide. Someone should look into that if the south now has a higher GDP, people need to be paying more in federal taxes from the south.


Fair enough, and I'm sure that shift is happening since the north is in atrophy mode while the south grows.


Actually we ship our atrophied there. Caring for our retirees is Florida's biggest industry.


I believe those retirees have good income to spend in Florida, or did you not pay them enough?

Tell me you've never known Asian/Hispanic men without telling me you've never known Asian/Hispanic men.

He is writing about obese people using their food stamps to purchase junk food that makes them more obese. Do you not get that? Do you not understand that he is slamming government programs that actually encourages this by putting few restrictions on the kind of food they can purchase?

I don’t actually care about the guy or the lyrics, I’m just amazed people are pretending he’s not targeting the absolute usual suspects— women and the poor.

He doesn’t say “we should change our food stamps policy to encourage healthier food the way we do with WIC”
He says if you’re obese and a size that mostly refers to women— taxpayers shouldn’t pay. If you’re skinny and male fudge rounds for everyone right?

He says nothing about change to government programs. He talks about obese people on food stamps.

How many of his ardent fans absolutely hated Michelle Obama’s efforts to make school lunches healthier? Bloomberg’s suggestion to tax sodas?

I've never known a 5'3" Hispanic or Asian man who weighed 300 pounds, most work too hard.

This song writer is definitely talking about white women and black women, as someone who is a white woman from "south of Richmond" approximately 5'3" and 300 pines describes about half my hometown female friends.

It's amazing what low income, bad food choices, and stress eating will to you.
