Well first of all, it resonates with the common man. Whether you lean left (esp re worker's share of the pie) or whether you lean right (esp re the welfare abuses going on) people are fed up. The reference to Epstein Island is something most don't even pick up on.
Secondly, there is no gross and in your face twerking race-baiting in the production of the video . There is no T/A to distract ... sex and race is not overly interjected to whip up the reptilian brain ... the lyrics are the forte of the thinking man ... which is something both the left and right claim a monopoly on.
Rest assured, things like this are not typically wholly organic in nature. This has been well thought out .... not that that is necessarily a bad thing.
#3 son, Angus, told me about this on Sunday. He'd just watched it, before driving over to see me. It takes 28 minutes to drive from his place to mine. In the interim, the Youtube had received 400,000 hits. Yikes.
The only thing comparable that I can remember is this one from 1965:
This came out about a month after the Life Magazine issue that brought back pictures of the escalation in Vietnam.
Maybe a distant 2nd is Ohio by CSNY
but McGuire's hit #1 and Ohio peaked at 14 on the US charts.
I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day Overtime hours for bullshit pay So I can sit out here and waste my life away Drag back home and drown my troubles away
It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is

That is, if he doesn't have a couple DUIs under his belt. That is, if he isn't a "Pillbilly" with an arrest for Fentanyl under his belt.
Does this ignorant bumpkin ever ask himself why millions of people from Mexico and Haiti risk their lives to come to America? Our country really is the land of opportunity.
Probably one of the most ignorant posts I have ever read on any forum.
You get out of life what you are willing to accept. If you ain't happy, do something about it!
That young man has lived the life of too many of us Patriots. He sounds as put out as I am as to what our country has become. My soul is well. I have accepted Christ as my Savior, and I know now that

I know I sound like a revolutionary. Maybe so. Maybe some of us need to be I got one life to spend, and should I lose it in defense of freedom, I will sleep the sleep of the just. Dammit, things are coming to a head. There’s way too many people trying to ride this schit out. Ask yourself, where do you stand. 7mm

Now that you have got that out of your system go have mammy change your diaper and go to sleep like a good little leftest and leave the adults alone thanks hope to never see another post from such an anti American cry baby.
If you are not America first you are america last. Be loud and proud America first.
Lefties will lefty. You know you went full leftist retard when SDLefty and Houston2 got left way to the right of where you’re at. Some of them hide it pretty well, but sooner or later, the stupid shines through.
The song as a message, is gold. The delivery might have been smoother, but not better, if the singer were not so emotional during it. Anyone who does not identify with the message is the enemy. Period.

You're a septuagenarian who brags online to strangers about how many women you bedded 40+ years ago.
If I had a question about a log house I was building I'd listen hard to any comment or advice you had.
This is from six days ago before all of this let go and this guys life changed. It’s pretty wild to see what is sandwiched between this video and the one that Dwayne posted.
Livin in a the new world with a old soul.
Lord, it’s a dam(n)Ed shame.
I hope and pray that this song and the way that it’s being received across cultural and racial boundaries indicates good things to come.
