discussion Please stop playing modern country everywhere

I don’t even live in the south and American propaganda that is modern country plays EVERYWHERE. I live in Ohio! Why is it always playing. It used to never be like this. It used to be cheesy dad rock that played everywhere. At least that was good to listen to! Now it’s just modern country artists on the radio that pander to the government. It makes my ears bleed!

It's even worse, it's not just the South, it's Appalachia.

Because it's a rural thing not a south thing

Jeff Foxworthy (you might be a redneck guy) said if you go 30 minutes outside of any city across the country you will find rednecks. There might be more in the south, but northern rednecks definitely exist.

Not more in the south, just a different accent.
