Eurofag here. Never been to USA. Is bluegrass music politically left or right wing?
>>131528441Always thought it was funny how there's endless inquiries about America from eurotrash but we never ask about fuckin DJ Tiesto or David Guetta and what their political alignment. Think about why that is
>>131528505because EDM is just pleb tier hedonism while bluegrass is inherently political?
>>131528545>bluegrass is inherently political No it isn't lmao I don't want outsiders talking about our music, just stick with your techno and shut the fuck up
>>131528441like everything else: it was invented by righties and then hijacked by lefties
>>131528441its mostly associated with rural appalachiatends to be right wing coded but theres an element of a lefty folksy tradition influenced by the likes of woody guthrie, pete seeger and such
>>131528545Please go back
>>131528505>Think about why that isits because Ameritards arent aware there are other countries
>>131528441what a stupid fucking question
>>131528594Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger weren't bluegrass musicians and never claimed to be. Most of Woody's recording were done before 1945, before bluegrass even existed as a distinct genre:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Guthrie_discography
>>131528741We're aware, we just don't care because other countries don't matter.
>>131528441Right wing
>>131528441depends upon when its made. current music is made to fight an artificial 'le conservative' agenda.actual good music is made in the light of loving people and struggling against hradship, so its inherently leftwing
>>131529419oops "made to FIT"
>>131529224That's literally what he said.
INCREDIBLE guitarist...My GOD is his music BORING
bluegrass has no political leaning, it just is
>>131528741I bet it feels that way when you're as lowly and as worthless as a european, you might as well not even exist you're so insignificant. Lmao.
Bluegrass typically votes libertarian
>>131529429>corrects his own baitpost
>>131528505Because David Guetta DID dedicate a song to St. Floyd one time, so we kinda know his stance already.As for Tiësto, well...
>>131528441It's usually apolitical. There are some exceptions. Here is a leftist bluegrass tune for fun.https://youtu.be/DrBrSnZ1Zuc?is=P3mTGEkmnYMc41wE
>>131529419It's easy to hate the rich.You need COURAGE to hate the poor.
>>131528586this
>>131528441I don't think it's divided politically like that, which is nice. The internal division is between "traditional" and "progressive" bluegrass but that's more about form than politics. It's a very strictly defined form of music with no drums allowed, and the differences are minor, but if you're a traditional bluegrass band then you're trying to sound like Bill Monroe while the progressive bluegrass experiment more. Here's a trad bluegrass guy:https://youtu.be/JEcREtJ_UOUAnd a prog band:https://youtu.be/vUfcvcXfIkY
>>131530906>Bluegrass typically votes libertarianThere's an anarchist political philosopher named Crispin Sartwell who I follow who is like this. He's a big bluegrass guy but when I say anarchist it's like old-style American individualist anarchism or libertarianism from the 1800s which is a unique thing. Like Thoreau.
>>131528441>Is bluegrass music politically left or right wingneither.anyone who says it is is a city dweller who figures non-city music is for right-wing hicksbluegrass is buegrass.fuck your politics, we're not your useful idiots >>131531795>>131528586>it was invented by righties and then hijacked by leftiesoof learn some history ffs laughing at youfuck you assholes who look at people who aren't like you and all you see is a resource for your agenda. leave us alone and fuck off back to your glass buildings
>>131528441>Is bluegrass music politically left or right wing?Who gives a FUCK?
>>131532294people whose brains are poisoned by culture war shit. I don't think the rural folk of Appalachia were even thinking about partisan politics when they were out there playing mandolin and fiddles. For fuck sake, like 99.999% of Bluegrass doesn't even feature political subject matter. You'd have to be seriously broken mentally to conflate it with any particular political agenda
>>131528441good question. when I visited my rural hometown recently, there was a bluegrass festival nearby.I would bet at least 80% of the people who went to that vote right.but Billy Strings plays at venues like Red Rocks near Denver where i'd bet up to 80% of attendees vote left.I can't think of any other genre that would have such weird number splits.
