In a recent Republican presidential debate, Oliver Anthony’s song struck a chord with many Americans, touching on their frustration with corporate politicians. Anthony explained in a video that his song was directed at those politicians, including those on the debate stage. This upset some on the left, including Adam Kinzinger, who seems to have missed the point. Kinzinger is known for his divisive corporate Washington politics, so it’s no surprise that he would take offense. But calling millions of Americans vermin because they hold different political beliefs is truly shameful.

Anthony responded to the backlash, clarifying that his song is not exclusively about Biden, but about the broader issue of corporate-owned politicians on both sides. He wants to address the system as a whole, not just one individual. It’s a message that resonates with many Americans who feel the same frustration. That’s why his song has reached number one on the Billboard charts.
Anthony’s message is not about rejecting people, but about rejecting the Washington-controlled system that puts its own interests before the people’s. Even if I don’t agree with him on everything politically, I can still appreciate the music. That’s the beauty of conservatism: free thought and individuality. Unlike leftists, conservatives don’t require everyone to conform to a narrow narrative. We believe in freeing the people and allowing for diverse perspectives. That’s why conservative thought triumphs in the marketplace of ideas and has the most to offer to a free people.
