Getting rawer-than-Tyler-Childers vibes.


Because the song is about the strife of the working man- not about about two guys going at it in a coal mine.

Hope that 1% makes you feel better about dogwhistling about "welfare queens" since the 80s.

The video notwithstanding, Childers has addressed "working man" stuff in may of his songs.

I'm disappointed in the brokeback video. But I'm choosing to pretend it doesn't exist. Because he's one of the best new songwriters out there.

Not surprising that when you are called on a false premise, you immediately go to the “dog whistling” angle. Like I said, you just want to call someone a racist. Take your L and skip away.

But it's not a false premise. The majority of welfare recipients are white people. That's called a fact.

Couple things and I’m walking away:

1) You obviously don’t know what majority means.

2) I gave you documented evidence with a link, and you’re still disputing it. I guess you just don’t like it

Are you this fricking stupid? Of all the people on welfare, white people make up the largest number hence the majority.

You obviously don't understand per capita yourself. Yes, 1% more of the black population are on welfare than the white population. But are you not aware that white people are the majority in America. So that 38 percent is a larger total number of people than the 39 percent of the small number. This is basic level of understand of the concept. Why do I have to explain this to you?

I get that you want to keep defending your dogwhistling. But at this point you are making yourself look legitimately retard. No wonder you love Trump.

You need to abandon this thread and pull all of the fire alarms on your way out.
Try not to get that firefoam on yourself. one of the main ingredients is pig's blood, and that attracts vampires.
You might be into them though.

38.8% of welfare recipients are White, 39.8% are Black, 15.7% are Hispanic, 2.4% are Asian, and 3.3% are Other. This demonstrates the disproportionate representation of certain racial groups in the welfare system.


This doesn’t say that 38.8% of white people are welfare recipients, and since the white population is larger, they are the majority of welfare recipients. It says that 38.8% of ALL welfare recipients are white. This is not the largest number or the majority, which are two different things.

Has Jason Isbell made a statement yet? He’s usually quick to chastise something like this…

also, when the greatest percentage of a distribution is less than 50%, it isn't a majority - it's a plurality

Oliver Anthony popped in at Joe Rogan's Comedy Mothership in Austin last night. I assume he did this after doing an episode of JRE, which will probably be released today or tomorrow.

Probably the medical community. Prob you during covid crying about our hospitals being overburdened.

Being overweight comes with health issues.
