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.

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts” - Mark Twain
Agreed and I love this quote. I’ve never heard it, but it’s top notch. If everyone would get out of their own bubble, truly see other people and the struggles that they go through, and gain some perspective, then the world would be such a better place.
Instead, people legitimately fear leaving their own bubbles, gain a “fuck you I got my own shit to worry about” mentality, and close themselves off to so much about the world around them. Or, in my MAGA family’s case, they think by leaving their legit small town (truly tiny, not Jason Aldean “tiny”), the world outside is a wasteland where everyone else is waiting to shank you, rob you, shoot you, make you speak Spanish (the horror!), and turn you gay. 🙄
