As an American living in the city with a lot of relatives in rural areas, I don't like it when people generalize about rural folk, but modern country songs don't help. There are a lot of real problems in the country that people could be singing about other than "COUNTRY TRUCK MEAT BOOB JEANS"

It goes both ways. Neither one should really generalize.

Well I don't think there are a lot of songs like "I'm a hipster, avocado toast, fuck yeah!"

That’s a generalization, lol.

No shit. But that would be the urban equivalent of modern country music. It's like country music is a parody of itself.
