[video id: tiktok posted by @/sfkhader where she switches between pretending to be two different people. the first person is a hijabi muslim who changes outfits several times; the second person is someone who is not a muslim.

person one, wearing a hoodie: "do you have a problem with my hoodie?"

person two: "umm, everyone wears hoodies."

person one, wearing a beanie: "okay, how about this beanie?"

person two: "ugh, beanies are so cute."

person one, wearing a headscarf: "okay, how about this scarf?"

person two: "those are so high fashion; i see them on runways all the time."

person one, removing the first headscarf to reveal a hijab: "okay perfect becau-"

person two, cutting person one off: "oh my god, why would you willingly cover up your hair like that? are you oppressed?"

Movie studios make films about Princess Diana and heavily insinuate that the royal family had a direct hand in her death like.... You think this has nothing to do with you?

[bybdolan]

Like there is a weird pattern where the media and fans try to find a scapegoat for a famous person's death and completely overlook the parr THEY played in it. Lady Di was literally chased to death by paparazzi. Make of that what you will.

[bybdolan]

Even the Britney Spears thing... Of course her family is evil and ruined her life but let's not act like the media painting her as this crazy person and hounding her for years and years isn't an integral part of what happened to her.

Everyone may *think* they hate country music, but when Jolene, Before He Cheats, Take Me Home Country Roads, or Life is a Highway comes on, everyone is suddenly a liar.

I know this is a funny post but

There are a few major points in Country Music’s history that got the entire genre labeled as ‘annoying’

Post 9/11 nationalism

A term that I couldn’t make up “Bro-Country” which intensifies themes of booze, objectifying women, and partying that were present in past decades but not to such an extent

This is Gospel Music But With an Accent

Now looking at the songs op listed there is

A woman pleading to another woman

A woman wrecking a shitheads life

A guy loving the scenery of where he lived

A song that could easily be mistaken for a number of other genres

But it is easier to say that one hates country while privately enjoying select songs than explain why one doesn’t like the current market oversaturated with our nation’s problems of nationalism, sexism, and so on

see also jhonny cash/willie nelson era songs which were deeply emotional stories often about painful and deep subjects. prison, loss of loved ones, hard labor, facing despair, passion. ‘ghost riders in the sky’ and the like are also deeply satisfying as they bridge more into folklore then ‘murica fuck yeah im sponsored by bud light yall’ another example- ‘midnight in montgomery’ where hank williams junior sings about the ghost of his father

“ … And felt the wind die down, And a drunk man in a cowboy hat, Took me by surprise, Wearin’ shiny boots, a nudie suit, and haunted, haunted eyes, He said: “Friend, it’s good to see you, It’s nice to know you care” Then the wind picked up and he was gone, Was he ever really there? ‘Cause when the wind is right, You’ll hear his song, Smell whisky in the air, Midnight in Montgomery, He’s always singin’ there, “ the reason we ‘hate country’ is because we know its supposed to have FEELING and its infuriatingly absent now

70s country - bluegrass traditional

80s country - power ballads

90s country - pop crossover

00s country - white supremacy
