Gonna have to say I agree Unhappymeal. My spidey senses were telling me something wasn’t right. The dude blasted onto the scene insanely fast. On YouTube alone, his videos were plastered all over my feed. I watch very specific videos on YouTube and he shouldn’t have popped up all over the place that much considering my watch history.

I got tons of those retarded “reaction” videos. I don’t EVER watch those and they were all over the place cluttering up my normal feed. It was annoying and it seemed like he was being pushed on us….hard.

What peaked my attention was that he was getting an unreal amount of attention from channels that would not normally review or discuss someone like him. There are a bunch of obvious libtard leaning channels saying he had a point and seemed legit. That’s weird. On top of that, he is getting an insane amount of exposure from the MSM to a level that feels incredibly unnatural. Whether positive or negative, it feels completely constructed.

I felt like it was just me that felt this way, until I was listening to one of Owen Benjamin streams on the way to work. When Owen called him out too, I started laughing so hard I could barely see the road.

Owen made some good points I hadn’t yet considered b/c I was ignoring the “Oliver Anthony phenomenon” b/c I thought it was fake and ghey.

• The guys sings with an accent but doesn’t talk with same accent.” (I know it’s common in country music today but it certainly diminishes legitimacy.)

• He lives in a trailer signing about the “dollar ain’t shit” but turned down 8 million dollars. Really?

• He doesn’t want to be in the spotlight or famous, but he keeps performing to live audiences.

• Best of all…No Southern man is going to sing about diversity and the melting pot being our greatest strength. So illegals and minority immigrants can take our jobs?

I can’t believe hardly anyone is questioning this guy’s authenticity. Especially on this forum. The dude has only been known about for a friggin week.

I feel like we are all being snookered. I’m pretty damn happy to know there are a few of us that can smell bullshit and avoid it b/c most folks are stepping right in it atm.
