You trolling, Northwinds?

It might be that one is mostly right-wing who goes leftist from time to time, while Neil is the opposite.

Yeah, I remember that song.

A bit paternalistic (insofar that it's about some bluesman and not, say, MLK), but it's a tribute nonetheless.

Dear Northwinds, you clearly seem to be on some kind of silly crusade. Please be chill and nice about it, though.
Kiitos.

I'm not trolling. I just think Southern Republicans are probably the most retarded and ugly people on this planet. Always toting their guns, flying the rebel flag, volunteering in deranged militia activity and bragging about how many blacks they killed.

I read a bio of Al Kooper, who produced Skynyrd's first album. In his book there's a story of one day in the studio...Al Kooper brought a guitar that Jimi Hendrix had given him to the studio to show the Skynyrd guys. The guitar was being passed around and there was much made of the fact that they were handling a "****** guitar" ( as if there were "cooties" to be had by handling it). As the story goes Ronnie Van Zant told the band maybe they ought to keep passing it around for a while so maybe some of it would rub off on them. Good story - I would assume it's true.

Who knows how the guys in the band really feel, deep down, but the rebel flag is certainly a thumb in the eye for many people and certainly feeds the stereotype. If they get accused of being racist rednecks, they deserve it.

This almost belongs in the political section—or MB's closest approximation.

The CSA flag is problematic to say the least.
