    Dolly Parton is a rich theme park owner who has abused her employees and she pals around with mass murderers like George W. Bush.

    At a certain point she had credibility. She came from a poor Appalachian background and made music reflecting that. After a certain point though, after decades in the industry, she completely flipped. Her 9 to 5 song used to be a genuine anthem for struggling working class people, then she flipped it a few years ago as “5 to 9” for a Sqaurespace commercial, glorifying the idea of working a second job after your main one.

    She’s the exact problem of modern country music. It’s made and financed by people too rich to be connected to humanity anymore.

      I’m going to need a reference on that staff abuse allegation, I’ve tried Googling but haven’t turned up anything.

      I don’t have a tv so I didn’t catch the Squarespace commercial, don’t know if it even played in the UK.
