Tldr: some no name dude wrote a country song. One of the lyrics shits on welfare recipients. Conservative hogs lose their mind and his song hits top charts. He comes out backpedaling and claiming we all “interpretted the lyrics wrong” and welfare recipients are victims not leeches. Now everyone is confused.
Can’t forget the part where his personal YouTube channel also has an extensive watch list (“videos to make your noggin’ bigger” or something similar) full of full-on anti-semitic conspiracy theories. Such as Jews secretly orchestrating 9/11.
This is an important detail of which I was unaware. I was almost gonna credit him for snubbing his nose at privileged politicians, but now I can write him off again.
Ootl… Who is this red head of the woods and what did they do?

The song title rich men north of Richmond is also likely a dog whistle for other crappy bigots like this idiot.
What’s the dog whistle? Washington DC is north of Richmond VA.
Richmond was one of the northernmost slave owning towns during the civil war.
Interesting. Thank you for the context
