Such was shown last month, when a collection of communists crashed a concert of his to burn American flags.<\/p>\n<p>As a reminder, over the summer, \u201cTry That in a Small Town\u201d exploded in the charts and on YouTube after a new music video for it was released showing footage from riots. When paired with the lyrics, in which Aldean decries rampant crime in the cities and notes that such would not be tolerated in small towns, it made for a powerful message.<\/p>\n<p>So, conservative music consumers jumped in with both feet.\u00a0Subsequently\u00a0to the music video\u2019s release, views on YouTube of the music video shot up from 350,000 to almost 17 million, sales jumped to 228,000, and streams of the song shot up from 1 million to 11.7 million, all in a week.<\/p>\n<p>And as much as conservatives loved the song, leftists hated it and still hate it. Such could be seen in a September incident in which \u201cThe Revcoms,\u201d a \u201crevolutionary communist\u201d group, crashed an Aldean concert and burned American flags.<\/p>\n<p>Posting the video on their X (formerly Twitter) account, \u201cThe Revcoms\u201d said, \u201c\u2018<em>Jason Aldean\u2019s country hit, it\u2019s a pile of fascist shit!\u2019\u00a0#JasonAldean\u2019s frothing fascist fans didn\u2019t like our message too much\u00a0\u00a0And these \u2018good ol\u2019 boys\u2019 (and girls) sure do love this flag!
