No doubt about it, Mr. Harris. Music can be used to advance dogmas of one kind or another. The dust bowl balladeers, Woody Guthrie and Seeger, openly espoused communist ideals, fighting who knows what? --their own demons, mostly. My g-father was a farmer in Carroll County, VA and Surry County in the 1920's and 30's. Sold produce by wagon in the earlier days. He would laugh if you tried to teach him Marxist doctrine. Perhaps this is why Marx is not taught in the schools. Yet, walk down any street-- Johnson City, Asheville, Spartanburg, or Kenosha--and ask people if they think 'the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer?' They learned Marx, somehow.

I liked your observation, Mr. Harris, speaking about Tyler Childers work in his song about homosexual coal miners, when you say " his ethics are a form of leftist colonization." What the Left has been doing, for decades now, is not easily defined. Nor do people have the desire or time to figure it out. Recently, I found a definition I'd like to share. We all know our sacred beliefs, and biblical scripture have been, and are, being destroyed. How is is done? The Left imposes phony moral codes, time and time again. Slavery. Civil Rights. Feminism. Many laws are on the books. Many times the laws are being applied extra-judicially. They are egregious, and many lives are ruined. The suffering!

They can say they are 'amoral,' acting like animals. But they can't say they are 'right' or 'just.' Not at the same time. You used the word 'ethics,' but there is nothing ethical about it. The scriptures tell us what is moral and immoral. We have a right and duty to hold on to our sacred beliefs. How do we know when we are doing the right thing? You will hear a peculiar sound of crocodile tears. Phony tears. This is what 71kramretaW91 is crying. You did good, Mr Harris.

I'm very sorry that I exist while not submitting to the value system imposed by you and other local elites. I'm a socialist and an atheist and, and simply due to the fact that I was born in Mississippi and grew up there, I will always be more authentically southern than some bougie New York transplant who apparently had a fantasy of coming to lord over idiot peasants who wouldn't question him and wouldn't ask for a higher wage. Does this cause you resent, that you will never be as authentic a southerner as some socialist and atheist? Well I don't care.

I fucking despise you people and those peasants you idealize do to, yes they don't say it to your face because you would punish them, but what do the bourgeoisie expect when they literally pay for inauthenticy? And then you whine endlessly that I have my opinions and refuse to you and your attempt to impose your religions personal law on me? You are pathetic. It's hilarious the kind of things you bourgeoisie parasites whine about while ruining our lives.
