‘There’s nothing American about promoting violence’: country star Jason Aldean criticised for anti-protest song
Try That in a Small Town features lyrics threatening violence against protesters and has been removed from Country Music Television, but Aldean says it is a celebration of community

You're viewing a single thread.
For those unaware — or who don’t keep up —
Jason Aldean is also the one who sang that “transgender people is not a real ontological category” — which, if you know biology and you know history, is an exact quote from the Nazis, who built the genocide of millions out of the notion of “Entarte” — usually translated to English as “Degenerate” but which literally translates as “without ontological category”.
He openly called for genocide of transgender people. Conservatives ate it up.
He and his record label and fans are all a part of a violent extremist hate group.
realllll fucking funny to use the words "ontological" and "real" next to each other
It was Michael Knowles of the Daily Wire that said "transgender people is not a real ontological category." While I could see Aldean agreeing with that, I can't seem to find it in any of his songs.
Thanks for letting me know Jason Aldean is a giga chud and a transphobe
“transgender people is not a real ontological category”
I cannot seem to find a quote from either nazis or aldean yet you used exact and stated things quite confidently
also cannot seem to find his call for trans genocide, nor them being an an ”extremist hate group”
seems like your whole comment is fearmongering emotionally driven bullshit
I've read the lyrics and listened to the song. What are you on about? Is it not enough to merely recognize the song (and the video's setting and content!?) as racist? Are the dog whistles so lowkey that you have to make shit up?
I'm guessing Jason Aldean has never pronounced the word "ontological" or "entarte", let alone sang it. Just how smart are you saying this guy is?
It looks like it was some doucher from the Daily Wire during a speech at CPAC, but it was in response to Aldean's comment of literally "eradicating transgenderism."
Idk, close enough. If it walks like a nazi and talks like a nazi, then it's probably a nazi.
you can't say that! something something the left always accuses me of being a Nazi for disagreeing with them, all I want to do is lynch N******, T*********, and F***!
did I forget anything of the new standard fascist playbook?
You'll forgive me if I don't consider the opinion of a concern-trolling cryptofascist.
They're right, though. If you search for "Aldean ontological" the only result you'll get with both words is this very thread. I don't see anything fascist about correcting a factual error.
LOL, wasn't so much correcting an error as pointing out that these idiots are giving WAY too much credit to a country star.
Using big words like that would get your ass whipped in his crowd. "I don't know what that means, but it sounds woke!"
First of all, you throwin' too many big words at me, and because I don't understand them, I'm gonna take 'em as disrespect.
Watch the video. It will help connect the dots.
I did, and I've commented as such.

My point was that some people, somehow, don't find the despicable nature of the song/video to be BROAD enough. They gotta get their little group in on the offense.
"I'm a liberal gun owner (<-true) and I feel targeted! I'm a victim too!"
Same shit here:
Just curious, do you feel triggered by Aldean being called out because you like bigotry, or do you just have really shitty taste in music and the delusion that your favorite cuntry star must be a good person?
triggered by Aldean being called out
What in the world on you on about? Never heard his name until this shit came up. The only country I listen to is much older stuff, I have no awareness of modern country, at all.
We're talking about an in-your-face racist song, and now suddenly it's about trans folks?! The trans community is trod upon quite well enough with finding digs on them where it doesn't exist.
Never heard his name until this shit came up.
Sure, that's why you're hell-bent on defending him.
You're hell bent on insisting that I am. Been here 1 solid day. Have a look at my comment history. Come back and tell me I'm a racist, conservative, jack-booted thug.
Here's a starter comment, on me, enjoy:
