I don't know enough other country to certify this take as
However, Willie Nelson/Dolly Parton/Johnny Cash style country is clearly lost for cosplay and reactionary thought.
I’m sure Baudrillard would have something to say about this. Same thing regarding socialist thought. Being pro-Palestine and anti-War were pretty much standard sentiments for leftists in the early 2000s. Now, if you’re a klanner on race relations but claim to be for a 2 state solution, you’re considered pretty much a revolutionary.

The official website podcast already weighed in a few yrs ago.
Chuck Johnny Paycheck in there too
Johnny Paycheck was an actual outlaw amongst his peers. Dude would show up at his shows unannounced, drink beer and start fist fights.
Also shot a guy for his hat
Highly recommend Devil Makes Three
Good example: Never Learn
Other bangers:
Poison Trees
Sweeping
Tow
Beneath the Piano
The Bullet
The Plank
St James Infermary (live sped up cover)
Is devil makes three country? I've read people calling them bluegrass, folk, and even rock. Which is whatever, they fucking rule.
I think much of their songs fall into the broader Outlaw Country genre, but yes bluegrass, folk, and yes a bit of rock. Also I have pet Pete Bernhard and I swear he is like a secret Maoist or something. Very cool dude. The ones I listed definitely have some very country bluegrass twang and bluegrass itself is sort of country subgenre.
But yes they are one of if not my favorite band of all time. A hell of a lot of class consciousness and marxist-adjacent critique of cops, landlords, even imperialism.
For example Poison Trees is a very clear critique of the entire institution of US policing and civil rights struggles, Never Learn is less clear but has obvious anti-landlord/enclosure of the commons/exploitation themes with a clear understanding that if we could unite we could bring the entire global economy to a halt to make our demands impossible to ignore.
Sweeping is just outright anti-imperialist.
And as for country, Beneath the Piano is possibly one of the most country songs of all time.
*Edit: LMAO met not pet, but that is too funny a typo so I'm leaving it.
