Cracker Barrel Nationalism and the Gospel of MAGA

This episode of Controlled Burn is us lighting the match again. We’re talking straight—no filters, no fake diplomacy. America’s burning, and we’re just calling it what it is: a controlled burn that’s finally reaching the folks who thought they’d never feel the heat.

We talk about how Trump and his movement played poor white America—got them blaming Black and brown people while the rich keep stacking the deck. Now those same folks are crying about the consequences, from farmers hurting to benefits getting slashed. We call it splashback politics—you hit the urinal cake, and now you’re wearing the mess.

We tear into fake Christian nationalism, “allies” who think hanging a sign counts as activism, and Democrats who keep trying to win off integrity while getting punked in real time. At the end of the day, Controlled Burn isn’t just a podcast—it’s a reality check. The fire’s here. The question is, what side are you standing on when the smoke clears? 🔥
