Accusations of racism prompted a country music channel to pull the video, which is set at the site of an infamous lynching and race riot. But Republicans are embracing Aldean.

    A song about gunning down people showing images of People of Color protesting and filmed in front of a building historically associated with lynching, including the attempted lynching of Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall.

      There’s nothing about “gunning down people” and the people shown “protesting” were mostly white, as far as I remember.

        Why can’t you stay at maga land like Truth or whatever bs platform you guys cannot seem to build? Go bother republicans and leave honest people alone. If we wanted the opinion of a fascist moron, we’ll call you. Bye.

          Because I’m a free thinker who sees no point in staying in some echo chamber. And there’s nothing fascist in anything I wrote.

            Im sorry but are you trying to argue about the definition of fascism on the internet? Have you not realized that for 90% of people it means “a system I don’t like”?

            To be clear nothing you said was fascist but Im not sure you can count on anyone to be able to identify fascism. Heck yesterday I had someone claim Joseph Stalin was a fascist which is silly.
