    he's actually complained about assuming he's right wing. Honestly, which bit is dog whistle cos I don't see it.

    It's the only one I've listened to so far so there could be a Proud Boys anthem on another track

    The main objection is that he appears to be taking potshots at everyone. High Taxes, the rich, the powerful and the poor( poor are 'milkin' welfare.) Essentially anybody who isn't like him.

    I've heard what he's said about this. That he's been highjacked by the right and the left. He claims it's all about the music not politics, but then he keeps banging on about the 'message.'

    Still, for me the song is intensely pessimistic, he's got it in for everyone. It's just incredibly whiney. 

    I think it's all gone to his head a bit. He thinks he's on a mission from God.

    "It's my belief that divine intervention has put me in this position, at this point in time to get a message across."

    It's not for me. I'm not that keen on people who think they've got God's mobile number.

    YMMV

    I'm not really arsed about the message. Just like the way it sounds. Hence the request for other artists.

    Also good and saw these support the dead south are Hootens Hollers - a bit more raw bluesy though
