I had a recent realization: Country music used to make us feel sorry for the murderers and thieves, those who'd shot a man in Reno just to watch him die and whatnot.
Today it tries to evoke sympathy for rich dudes with monster trucks. People who casually kill and are bad for society. So maybe it hasn't changed as much as I thought?
