    • @johns5263
      @johns5263 Год назад +20

      People are just doing "remixes" of the song because they say the attention the original got and what money he's making. Why not make your own song?, why piggy back off Oliver's song?. That's why you have mainstream/ independent rappers and singers doing copies or a different version. It's all about clout nowadays, very few are original. C'mon, he's dressed just like Oliver, has the same guitar, same settings, ect. The only thing he changed was Richmond to Portland

    • @sunshynff
      @sunshynff Год назад

      YES!! You sir are correct, BUT.......Don't you think they should know what "enough" is before they speak out???? I've definitely had "enough" of banks/bankers, corporate big wigs and the wealthy elite using OUR MONEY to gamble on Wall Street like it was Vegas (and if they lose get bailed out by big daddy govt. while we lose our homes). I've had "enough" of the highest most powerful judges in our entire govt. system, having life time appointments, have no regulatory or watchdog committees to keep them in check, and as we recently saw and are still learning, are able to accept monstrous privileges, luxuries, and gifts, just shy of cold hard cash, not just from special interest groups but individual wealthy elites, which absolutely shaped policy and affected real people throughout the country. And I've especially had "enough" of them demonizing education, so that we just spit out little worker bees for the corporations, and don't realize that we live in the wealthiest country in the history of our planet, yet we have folks sleeping in the streets, including our vets that risked their lives for this country, and the fact we could EASILY afford universal health coverage for every single citizen, and treat healthcare like a RIGHT, just like every single developed country on the planet and some 3rd world countries already do.
      See, Jon didn't choose to say enough is enough to those things, instead he, like Oliver Anthony, chose issues that weren't issues at all, until the failing-in-popularity wing of our political system decided to make them an issue in their fear and outrage creating machine they have, and shoveled that shit in their base's ears 24/7 until they bought it, and in turn regurgitated to others. So I'm just curious what "enough" you're talking about?
