“Last week, the American Conservative published an article by Scott Greer on Nashville as a city showing the way forward beyond wokeness. ‘What might replace woke as the dominant cultural form isn’t some return to tradition. It’s the culture and lifestyle embodied by Nashville,’ Greer writes. ‘Normal Americans just want to focus on the mundane and have a good time. Country serves as the soundtrack and Nashville as the vacation spot.’ Scott makes the all too common mistake of confusing the Nashville MSA with Nashville proper, but superficially, what he identifies as making Nashville palatable to people who want to live here is accurate. On top of the relative stability and lack of political drama, country music gives it a shine absent other places like Dallas, Atlanta, or Charlotte. But what I want to point out is that this arrangement is much more fragile than Greer or others might think.” (02/20/25)
