A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Some modern country is also great! Tyler Childers has multiple songs about fucking around and being a cokehead in Kentucky (he's thankfully clean now). Then there's his Country Squire album that's very fun to watch videos from while stoned. It's like some southern Yellow Submarine.
Zach Bryan released an anti ICE song that I can't currently remember the title of for the life of me.
If you want more folk, Haunted Windchimes, The Ghost of Paul Revere, and Poor Man's Poison are all excellent, with Poor Man's Poison just straight up having multiple leftist as fuck songs. More mainstream you'd find Noah Kahan, who's done some excellent music. It's more pop folk than normal folk, but I'm still a fan personally.
Basically, just avoid artists like that whiny little bitch boy Morgan Wallen or basically any of the mainstream musicians from the 80s to the 2000s and you can find some actually good shit.
Also, both are mainstream, but Travis Tritt's Trouble and John Michael Montgomery's Sold are both absolute bangers.
Thanks! I’ll check them out; I know I was speaking in a broad generalization. For contemporary country, I’m a fan of Aida Victoria, to name one. It’s just, as OP said, those songs and musicians who produce “Republicunt siren songs.”
