    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?

      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.

      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.

          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.
