It’s no question that viral sensation Oliver Anthony’s song “Rich Men North of Richmond” has resonated with millions of Americans, as it’s now boosted him to the top of the Billboard Hot 100.

Anthony, who worked in outside sales in the industrial manufacturing world, took to Facebook to tell his audience that he met a lot of “blue-collar workers on job sites and in factories” who were “SO damn tired of being neglected, divided, and manipulated.”

He divulged in the same post that he paid $97,500 for his property and still owes about $60,000 on it. “I am living in a 27’ camper with a tarp on the roof that I got off Craigslist for $750,” he added.

The singer-songwriter also takes issue with technology and what it’s done to us, writing, “I hate the way the internet has divided all of us. The internet is a parasite that infects the minds of humans and has their way with them. Hours wasted, goals forgotten, loved ones sitting in houses with each other distracted all day by technology made by the hands of other poor souls in sweatshops in a foreign land.”

However, while his story undoubtedly resonated with Americans who are struggling to survive in modern society, the Left will now stop at nothing to tear him and his newfound success to the ground.

And Glenn Beck knows exactly why.

“The reason why he has to be destroyed is because he’s the average guy who’s just, in his own way, let his voice be heard,” Glenn says.

“This is why evil is tearing us apart. This is why evil is trying to get us to not talk to each other. Evil cannot allow us to share what we really believe. Evil cannot allow us to see our common humanity, our common fears, our common problems, our common solutions, our joys, our wants,” Glenn continues.

In the spirit of Anthony’s honesty and success, Glenn also has a word of advice.

“Share the real you with people, and you just might be surprised in the end.”
