Every time I think reactionary country music can't get worse, it does. My least favorite thing is when the song gets prefaced with "listen I'm just a simple man but" like We Shall be Fre by Garth Brooks, or that Alan Jackson 9/11 song.

My least favorite one of all time is "Most people are good" by Luke Bryan. Liberals at the time liked it because it does have surface level lyrics about love and equality and all that, but it's an insidious white conservative view.

I hate how none of these songs are specific either. They dance around things and say vague things like "the world's gone crazy" without outright saying what they mean. Punk music is far more direct and that's what I dig about it. Like the Dead Kennedys had songs like "Let's Lynch the Landlord" and lyrics about Jerry Brown (by name) being a fascist.
