Garth Brooks and John Rich have been on opposite sides of the cultural spectrum for some time. Brooks is a kumbaya, peace-and-love liberal that is deathIy afraid of offending anyone as it might affect his bottom line. Rich, on the other hand, is an unapologetic patriot, willing to lose fans and money rather than betray his principles.
Ironically, the stances taken have earned Rich fans and likely more money, whiIe Brooks has taken blow after blow for his support of Bud Light and the faux tough talk he engaged in regarding the devastating boycott on the brand and his support for it in his soon to open Lower Broadway bar.
Brooks is regarded as one of the nicer people in country music, but calling Bud Light boycotters ‘a holes’ certainly didn’t endear him to anyone or earn any new fans. Rich, on the other hand, stopped selling the beer as a matter of business. People simply stopped buying it, so he stopped selling it.
Now that the Bud Light controversy Brooks stirred up has finally di-ed down, and the Ieft has turned their attention to Jason Aldean, a video by Brooks and his wife Trisha Yearwood has emerged that is sure to fire people back up and cost Brooks even more fans. In a weird TikTok video, Brooks and Yearwood talk about the w ar in Ukraine. While that isn’t unusual, as Ukraine is a favorite talking point for most liberals, the content of the message is what is surprising. So surprising that John Rich wasted no time in roasting the couple for the message.
Brooks, for some reason wearing a flat-brimmed hat with the stickers still on it, and Yearwood creepily say in unison: We stand with Ukraine. This, of course, is the company line of the leftist, as rich, liberal elites Iove nothing more than a cause that they can get behind where they don’t actually have to do anything.
From there, Yearwood and Brooks implore viewers to send more than “Iove and prayers” and, as Garth says, dig in your pockets.
Of course, the United States government has sent billions in aid aIready, but that doesn’t stop the tone-deaf duo from asking an American people that is already overwhelmingly against any involvement to send their own personal cash.
Heavily-Tattooed Woman Says It’s “Not Fair” That She Can’t Get A Job
Following a woman’s accusation that TJ Maxx was discriminating against her due to her appearance, a subsequent instance involving a job rejection at the store has generated controversy. 23-year-old Ash Putnam, who goes by @ashxobrien on TikTok, talked about how she was turned down for a part-time job at the store because of her body piercings and tattoos.
Putnam claims that after applying for the job, she got an email a few weeks later rejecting her application. Disappointed by the information, she vented her annoyance on TikTok and sparked a discussion on discrimination in employment.
Putnam’s initial grievance was with the impersonality of getting an email rejection instead of a call. Even though this is standard procedure for big businesses, she thought it was disrespectful considering how hard she worked to apply for the position.
When Putnam went to her neighborhood TJ Maxx to personally find out why she was rejected, a staff member informed her that she didn’t have enough experience for the role. Despite the employee’s insistence to the contrary, she suspected that her tattoos had a big influence on the choice.
Putnam stressed that, despite her unhappiness, she wasn’t necessarily in need of the work and was just looking for extra money to help her pay off debt faster. She thought it was unjust, though, that her tattoos appeared to be a deciding factor in her employability.
Putnam has obvious tattoos of images associated with Satanism, including a Leviathan Cross and a goat that symbolizes the god Baphomet. Thousands of TikTok users commented on her post, implying that her tattoos probably affected the decision, even though it’s unclear whether hiring supervisors noticed them when she applied.
Visible tattoos, according to some reviewers, may be viewed as unprofessional, particularly in jobs where employees interact with customers like those at TJ Maxx. Others brought out the difficulty of finding a job for young folks without any prior work experience if employers value experience over potential.
The event brought up more general concerns about how society views physical alterations and employment procedures. Putnam questioned why having a tattoo should prevent someone from getting a job, given that many tattoo bearers are quite skilled workers.
Putnam’s tattoos may not have had a direct impact on her rejection, but the event brings attention to the ongoing discussion over appearance-based discrimination in the workplace. It’s critical to think about how hiring procedures may be more inclusive and equal for all candidates, regardless of appearance, as the conversation continues.
