And the welfare dig sounds like a dog whistle to me.


You are part of the problem, frankly. He doesn't need nor does he want government programs. He wants to be left alone by the government. As do many of us.
He is complaining about the WAY our tax dollars are being spent. No accountability for welfare. Our youth are dying from fentanyl and little to no effort to stop the drugs from coming to our country. Our hard earned money going to foreign countries in the BILLIONS, if not TRILLIONS, and we have people here who have no homes and no food.

He's not been "brainwashed" at all. He has lived it. He has seen the waste of tax money. He speaks for millions.


Nice contradiction.

"He doesn't need or want government programs" -- yet he complains that tax dollars are being spent on foreign aid when "we have people here who have no homes and no food."



There is no contradiction there at all.
He needs no help from "government programs." But, he, no doubt, know many that do. Instead our tax dollars are going, in the TRILLIONS to support foreign governments instead of taking care of our own homeless and poverty ridden citizens.

You just don't get it.


You just don't know your facts. We do, in fact, spend trillions on social welfare programs here at home -- and send a fraction of that abroad.

And this song specifically calls out welfare as a waste of money. So I'm not understanding what "government programs" are OK in this worldview?

This song is simply dog whistle BS with no actual philosophy behind it.

My guess: 80% or more of the people who love this song pay nothing in federal income tax.


And we import Millions of low wage workers to keep inflation in check , ie keep wages low for US low wage workers

And we import a million of legal HXXXB workers every year to take jobs from US citizens.

All policies that inflict pain on the US citizen but rich urban elites don’t care. Those damn deplorables. Should have gone to Yale like me


For the millionth time, immigrants do not depress the earnings of the native-born. This is one of the foundational findings of labor economics.

How can he simultaneously be complaining about people here who have no food and simultaneously complain about people here with grocery carts loaded up and being paid for with foodstamps? Schroedinger's shopping cart - simultaneously empty and full of food at the same time.

And as for "obesity" and "but that food stamp shopping cart is full of junk food" again you can blame the Republicans, who had a complete freakout and meltdown when Michele Obama suggested trying to get kids on to healthier foods and to get them off of junk foods that lead to obesity, including all of the right wing's ever-ubiquitous and typical self-destructive "stick it to the man" statements that followed like Sarah Palin defiantly raising a 64oz Big Gulp full of corn syrup juice.



Some of you on the right seem to be VERY FORGETFUL of this stuff. Some of you on the right seem to LACK THE GREY MATTER to connect the obvious dots on these things.


Because welfare isn't distributed homogenously throughout the US. Cities have more wealth and can offer more services to their citizens.

And states well south of Richmond declined federal money to expand Medicaid and chose to have an unhealthy and poor population. I don’t see why New York and Maryland need to take credit for that, they expanded their programs…

Well, if this song is a "dogwhistle," only a portion of the people who hear it are outraged and those are the liberals and elite who are railing against it.
Kind of makes you go..... hmmmmm.

Why do you think that Oliver Anthony or his supporters are violent?
Have they demonstrated violence? Have they looted or burned down federal buildings?
Be specific.

Why I bet that Trump, Q, and all the co-conspirators worked with Anthony behind the scenes to create a dogwhistle to their supporters

Note to everyone - Lefists are insane

Because I lived in DC in January of 2021 and saw what these people do when they feel they don’t get their way— violently riot, beat up police officers, defecate in public and try to overthrow the government.

Just more progressive fragility (but that’s to be expected).

Richmond is a dog whistle for Slavery. How can you not see that.

It’s time to rename the confederate cities. Long overdue.
