this is in no way reliable information you might as-well give a a hand written note saying “i want to be right” the music video that you are trying to reference at https://invidious.slipfox.xyz/watch?v=b1_RKu-ESCY which is official. Has no newspaper clipping that your false information has, also site your sources for credibility
also lets say the hypothetical that this is real Tictok is by no means credible for news, secondly music videos are done by hired directors which usually have nothing to do with the song for example, Hoziers take me to church. if you read the lyrics it says nothing out gay people when the music video shows about the over reach of the catholic church on gay people. two completly seprate things the music and the music video
It’s from the man himself. Why does Jason Aldean’s racist dog whistles have to be in the same container for them to be relevant?
so you just admitted that you dont like Jason Aldean because of his whistles, which i will say i have never seen nor could find on google. and that you in fact put that comment on this thread because you just dont like him. Which has nothing to do with topic of the song being considered racist, not Jasion Aldean being Racist. which by those terms means lemmy is communist because its made by a socialist developer, which btw it is opensource which is why it is not communist based on each instance having freedom from each other.
That’s not what dog whistle means:
“…Yet there’s another dog whistle we’ve been hearing about lately: a coded message communicated through words or phrases commonly understood by a particular group of people, but not by others.”

thanks i did not know that term!
Yeah, it’s kind of a metaphor for how dogs can hear a dog whistle, but people can’t. Likewise, a " dog whistle " is a phrase or idea communicated where certain people pick up on the key language, and other people don’t. Although with the internet now, information can be disseminated readily to everyone and then people point out that it’s a dog whistle or not.
I understand why you defend him so strongly, now. Have a good one.
read lower, i was having a civil discussion hince what this thread is about, your rude comments are not welcome.

The video you are responding to by the previous poster was a critique of the original TikTok video posted by Mr Aldean. That video was posted on May 19th, prior to the official music video release from a few days ago.

Edit - The full newspaper listing is here… I wish the TikToker had actually put a link in his description but here it is.

i stand corrected, thank you for using sources instead of caveman, “im right because” i also apologize for my ignorance and commend you for using credible evidence and taking the time to prove me wrong.
You’re welcome. I know, information posted on the internet is oftentimes confusing, contradictory and either incomplete or there’s just a lot of false information.
I try to keep it simple and acknowledge the fact that it’s difficult to understand information and to know what is the truth and what isn’t the truth. Truth and honesty are a hard thing to come by these days…
thanks for being understanding for my ignorance, im not trying to be rude or racist i just wanted to know both sides of the argument, to understand what people and news outlets are bickering about. may everyone have a nice day :D
