When this song came out, I disliked it because Kid Rock had sample-covered Werewolves of London, by Warren Zevon (who was at the time and remains my favorite songwriter). As time went on, the song grew on me, especially after I learned that Kid Rock took the time and effort to give credit to Zevon and royalties to Zevon’s family.

Today I heard it again in a store and then it hit me that this song is subversive in a very insidious way. It’s a song about a summer romance in Northern Michigan, but it’s full of references to Sweet Home Alabama and the south, including a beach bunny in a Confederate flag bikini in the music video. At the time the song came out, I remember reading a comment somewhere about northern Michigan being about as far as you can get from Alabama and the South without going into Canada.

Today I had a flash of insight - this song represents the “southernification” or “redneckification” of all rural Americans and due to the fact of our globalized existence, pretty soon the “southernification” of all rural white people. What do Alabama and northern Michigan have in common? Not much, except that they’re both rural. This is a phenomenon that I’ve heard people have observed, that rural America is becoming homogenized and turned into a generic “red state place”, pushing out local culture and mores in favor of a cargo cult of redneckdom (which is not even properly Southron as a distinct culture group of white Americans).

I’d love to hear more about this, especially from Americans who live or used to live in rural locales. Is this process really taking place? How far has it gone? What can we, as a movement, do to interdict it? Should we interdict it? Will having a unified rural white culture somehow make our task easier?

Irish people, please stop saying you're "not racist". Why would you, a victim of state-sponsored ethnic cleansing and anti-Irish discrimination even think about the idea that *you* could be racist for opposing it? It would be like if an amazonian tribespeople on their rightful territory had an oil company illegally bulldozing their villages, and they were so psychologically terrorised by the oil company they kept saying "I swear I have nothing against bulldozers. I love bulldozers".
