I've got no idea what image this guy is trying to present, his words and image are very much at odds. More importantly, while I'm not a fan of rap as a genre, it had good flow and the chorus was clearly an actual chorus refrain. I don't feel robbed of my time for having watched it.
Lyrics were on-point, but many rappers have known for years how BS their culture is. His words reminded me a lot of "Ill Mind Of Hopsin 5", criticizing the current culture in a semi-conservative bent while self-awarely profiting from it.
I gotta be honest, I think Hopsin is a bit cringe, he can flow pretty good but dang it, his lyric's little too on the edge and straightforward where this guy seems to be more eloquent if he wants to be.
I think you're falling into the cage with no bars he alludes to in his rap.
He isn't punching both directions. There's four directions on a standard political compass. He's punching "up", not in the Gender Studies sense, but in that political compass sense. The entire song is anti-authoritarian in all its forms, governmental and societal. Your perception of punching both directions is him punching upwards with both arms.
Either way, its things like this that I point to when I tell people the end is not in fact neigh. I know people on the internet THINK that nothing well ever change, but this sort of hyperwoke 24/7 attitude is not sustainable among anyone who is not broken enough to be that woke in the first place (so, the overwhelming majority of the country/world).
It may take time, but there will be a push back as people dont want to live in that sort of world.
EDIT: I looked at his wiki page to try and find out who this mans is (I dont like Rap/Hip Hop, so I dont know), and they are as salty as you think. "His lyrics are interpreted as anti-feminist, anti-LGBT, pro-white nationalism, and as apologism for NotAllMen. MacDonald has denied the claim of being a racist or ever participating in 'racist activities'."
Great lyrics, questionable image - but then, I'm already wide awake to everything said in this song, so I'm probably not the target audience, nor do I really need to be.

I Hate Hip-Hop has a similar vibe to Ill Mind of Hopsin 5 (for those who haven't seen it), although I think my favorite by him is Whiteboy.
He's a pretty good artist in my opinion. Definitely a little out there, but then again most good ones are :P

Only secretly?
