Thanks Cassius. To give yourself credit too and say that the views are not just for Mr Anthony but you too. You come across as genuine and chill. Intelligent and honest. People are watching Oliver Anthony reaction videos all over RU-vid and your reactions seem natural and raw. Think that’s partly why we subbing lol. Keep doing your thing brother. You’re doing great! Oliver is just too real for this world let alone the fake, creepy and evil music industry. Bless him ❤
Wow. This comment made me smile. I thank you in return for that. To be lauded for my honesty and for being real and raw is refreshing. Feels free, which is the greatest thing I could ask for. I promise to remain real, honest, and truthful so that I may honor your subscriptions. Thank you thank you. Lead with love.
I love when he said “I think about that guy who was sitting here a few weeks ago talking to you. The most important thing to me is not leaving him behind.”
100% my love. Yes the fact that he recognizes he is now a future version of himself. To look back and make sure to bring that guy with him. I love it. A good lesson for all of us.
🙏🙏Chris was that lonely empty train on the tracks in the night, But now he's unstoppable heading around the sun and we're all invited along for the ride of our lives.
Thanks for this. Thanks for your reviews. If you continue to dive into Oliver Anthony’s waters… I’ll be here to watch you. What a Godsend man! We needed him for sure! Keep it up!
You're sincerely welcome. Thank you for your continued support and I will absolutely continue to follow his story. Feel free to recommend any videos or songs you'd like me to review or react to. I'm loving this guy right now.
Great reaction and spot on. Sadly, the machine is trying to twist his words even from this video that he uploaded we need to support him. It is common sense that is why we connect with him. He is talking for many of us who are voiceless, and it is globally. Thankyou once again.
You're sincerely welcome. If anyone can let me know about these media outlets twisting his words, please do. I don't watch the news and I think I'm going to do a review on how they are trying to make him seem like something he's now. Sending love to you. And yes, let's bring back common sense!
Thank you for reacting to this part 2 of his. I did see it on his channel earlier this morning then wondered what some of the many reactors to his songs thought about these words. It was so refreshing to hear your thoughts. I feel the same. I wish more reactors would also post his part 1&2. So far not too many have. Everyone really needs to listen to this. I appreciate your realness and loved seeing your adorable pupper!
Thank you sincerely for recognizing my realness. I have struggled in various ways when it comes to trying to 'get-along,' or 'go with the flow,' because I refuse to be fake. I love the way he speaks so candidly to us all. I appreciate you and I can promise you I'll maintain the realness and authenticity for years to come. Lead with love.
I knew you were going to enjoy this one! 😁 The more we get to know him, the more we love him! He's just one of us who is willing to sacrifice whatever to be able to continue to make his music for us and to help not only Americans but people around the world with their struggles. ❤ I stopped trying to "find a religion" bc none matched me, so I chose to just read the Bible for myself. I'm so thankful I did. God is knocking on our hearts all the time, it's up to us to answer that knock. 🙂 2020 proved to me how much evil is in this world and in our own country. People turning into masked zombies, government destroying the poor and middle class, etc. And it terrified me, honestly. But I went to the Bible and found a scripture that woke me up and I was no longer afraid and could see things so more clearly from then on. I can't explain it but it's the truth. 2 Tim 1:7 For God has not given us the spirit of fear but of power, and of love and of a sound mind. And the quote that he used at the end of I Want to Go Home was scripture. It is Jesus speaking in both Matthew 16:26 & Mark 8:36. Enjoyed seeing the pup! 🐾💕 You should have the Mrs react wiith you as well! 🙂
Thank you so much for being so supportive. Yes, I agree the bible itself is beautiful to read outside of religion. It is full of poetry. I will definitely keep my puppers around for some more reactions. I'll consider having Mrs. Cassius on here, but unfortunately the internet is full of some very odd characters. Plus she's prettier than me so I don't want to lose my audience. 🤣😅😂. MUch love.
We all have felt enough pain these people have caused us. Its time to come together as 1 and thrive like we know we can. Great reaction. Much love bro. 🙏
This was a great reaction and appreciate your honesty. New subscriber and love your puppers! 😊. This made me love him more and pray he stays strong and can ignore all the BS that the trolls spew. He is such a charismatic man and I hope he keeps doing what he loves. Bless you all!
Thank you sincerely. I am proud to be honest and real at every chance I can. He is a good soul and I will continue supporting him best I can. Sending love to you and yours.
I taught Sunday school for 13 years and walked away from doctrine. I didn't walk away from love, morals, and values. I still pray to the higher power, call it what you want. I've found peace being able to love everyone and condeming no one. It's nice to see someone who walks the walk, and talks the talk of what Christianity is, and not spinning it. I got tired of the division because Jesus never taught me divide.
100% if we focus on the positive message rather than on the twisted division we would all be in a better place. I'm a teacher as well so I extend my support to you and I understand why you left. I'm glad we've connected. Sending love.
My brother this comment means the world to me. I'm all about keeping it real. Cassius will remain real and true. Thats a guarantee. Love you. @@TheUTruth
My favorite line from him "Government takes people who are needy and dependent and makes them more needy and dependent. My dad raised several huge plots of gardens and fed not only us by our community. Chris proves you don't have to be "educated" to be very intelligent! Doggonit is so real!
Hi from the UK 🇬🇧 😊. Keep paying it forward 👍 proof that the meek will inherit the earth. Fact. Please start helping people locally and make the change you want to see.
I had stopped listening to all forms of music because for me, it became just noise. Oliver Anthony has been the first time I have listened to music in a few years other than a few gospel songs. I will continue to listen to him.
I love Oliver Anthony for his realness and rare authenticity he comes across so very likeable. Also as a side note I’ve hardly ever seen anyone with such laughing and happy and smiling eyes as you Cassius when you smile your eyes just sparkle like a child very rare that ❤️ blessings
oh man, haha...i relate to the low-key indignation you expressed when you were like, "if *anyone's* gonna talk about the poor..." ...as a former "poor kid" myself, i feel that... your reaction triggered a memory of back in the day, when i was in my social work grad program, being taught about "diversity & oppression" by this ivy league-educated, upper-crust, hip-oisie lady about "the poor" like we were some kinda novel pet project, or an endangered species that had to be infantilized & protected from "the privileged elites" ...it was *so* condescending... so thanks for the chuckle ;)
HELL YES! I was holding back what I really wanted to say... and as a former poor kid yourself, you know damn well what I mean! Haha, it is the absolute worst when people try to tell me "How it is" for the poor. And actually argue with me about welfare and shit like that... like who tf are you talking to? That's like me debating with a wolf about what it's like... to be a wolf... because I saw a documentary on wolves. XD Love love love this comment. I hope you stick around! Sending love form one poor kid to another!
@@CassiusAchilles yeah, haha...or like when someone says "well then, i guess you're not really [enter minority or other oppressed group here], because you don't agree with [my woefully predictable, canned-ham hot take on any subject]" hahaha
I like that you mentioned his eyes. I wanted to address that, as well. He has soul piercing eyes. 3:08. His heart is definitely in the right place. I don't blame him for wanting to go home.
@@CassiusAchilles I just got to the part where you share some of your personal story, about being on welfare and not getting those snacks in the grocery store. I’d just like to reiterate how very proud your mom must have been (and I believe still is) of you. You’re an outstanding young man and I LOVE your videos.
Keep following olivers story, he needs as many people as possible supporting him in whatever way they can, and the RU-vid reactor community is a big part of that to help him get the REAL message out instead of the bs mainstream media narrative based rubbish!!
100% agreed! It is up to us, the people, to make it clear how we feel about him. They are trying to label him negatively so they can hold on to their BS positions. I'm on it! Thanks for the support. Sending love.
I didn't watch the debates. Heard they utilized "His" song while on stage for their purposes. Did they ask Him for permission to do so first? Had it been one of US trespassing w/no respect at all, we'd have been sued shirtless. Their shirts look like they come from the cleaners all nice & pressed. Taxpayers foot that bill at Tax time. Amazing! Graces bestowed upon Oliver Anthony Music for being so gracious enough to share their works uncontracted. Well they are hooked and they can't get off this line this time. I never thought I was better than anybody else & I never set out to intentionally hurt anyone. He is a Wonderful Guy & if we weave carefully we will all be a heck of a lot better off for it. 'Been a long time comin'.
I like your thoughts and comments on this man. I am in my early 70's and I have not in my lifetime felt this amount of passion for any man, other than Jesus Himself. I don't know if Oliver can change the world, but I believe he can & will change some people's world.He is a rare individual.
I appreciate your thoughts on the snap/ food insecurity issues. That is how I understood the lyrics as well. I've had to rely on SNAP and I am sure I bought snacks but if that is the only thing you're buying that isn't great.
100% agree. It isn't that we can't buy some snacks and have some joy with our food purchases. But if that constitutes 20-30% of what you're buying, it seems your priorities are misplaced, or you don't need that assistance. I appreciate you commenting and sharing your experience as well. From one poor kid to another, sending love.
Back in the 70s into the 80s, my mum raised us 4 kids. We definitely didn't have much, either. I believe it makes us humble yet strong because we weren't handed things on a silver platter. We worked hard to make it. The sad thing is that we are heading for an economic collapse, inflation, and much more. I hope folks will be humble enough to learn how to make due with what you have because for some, it's going to hit like a ton of bricks. I'm a new subscriber, and I respect how you grew up it has given you a gift. A strong foundation that you will be able to move forward with always. No matter how much we are weathered, if our foundation is strong, we will survive. I appreciate your views. I'm looking forward to watching more videos. Much respect a nonna in Massachusetts 😊🙏
Thank you sincerely for this heartfelt comment. Means a lot coming from someone else who understands what it is to grow up poor and struggling. Yes, the economy is in rough shape and will likely hit people like a ton of bricks. I only hope we will learn as we endure. Sending love back to you on the east coast. You're clearly a lovely Nonna!
@CassiusAchilles The world is going to need folks like us. They are truly going to be lost. I have 5 grandchildren. My son 35 yrs old is teaching the boy's ( 6 & 3 yrs ) how to fish, hunt, garden, raise chickens, shoot safely. The boys do have video time but spend more outdoors learning and growing. I've actually gone back in time myself. Making homemade breads, gardening, and learning about self-sufficiency. Funny...growing up having nothing, then decades of being spoiled with the easy life we have everything at our fingertips. To now wanting to go back to living a simpler time. I'm honestly proud of you because you came out on the good side of poverty. ❤️ We are so much stronger because of it. We can add it to our survival skills! Have a blessed day! 🙏
His ability to articulate what we all know and feel is so powerful and real!!! Please let this awaken people and help them realize we ALL are the same and the Rich 🤑 Men are just trying to divide us BECAUSE they don't want us to stop fighting each other and address the real EVIL rat bastards trying to kill us while stealing everything we have. The New World 🌎 where they tell us "You will have nothing and be happy" and eat crickets and lab grown 🐂 💩 👎😡 God's blessings, protection and healing NOW for ALL!! God protect this beautiful soul!!
Thank you Craig. I will continue to be honest in my reviews. The truth is what matters and I'm glad I'm able to share my perspective with you. Lead with love.
I grew up in the 70s in government housing. I am melanin challenged. I remember that the same people who hated me because I lack melanin, we became best friends.
Joy does indeed come in the Morning! :) Jesus is so amazing! His future is with the King! My heart is smiling! Look at his smile! It is contagious! Will he continue to have struggles? Of course he will but he now knows and understands where he resides. PRAISE the LORD! (at all costs) (my persective) I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!
About 50 to 60 years ago Tennessee Ernie Ford put out: Hauling 16 tons, whata you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. St Peter don't ya call me cause I can't go. I owe my soul to the company store. A song for my parent 's generation.
100% I have no idea what in the world people were hearing. It is just that everyone spends every moment wanting to capitalize on someone else's moment and spin it how they see fit. I feel like he is very clear.
It's not left or right. It's populist and it's raw and it's real. It connects all of us because it isn't left or right. He speaks to the things we all feel and see, regardless of politics
I'm prone to dropping f-bombs and talking like a sailor and im a 63 year old woman. I dont like talking like that and i reserve it for either a highly aggitated moment or in story-telling, and i like hearing it less. But i cant complain about someone else(you, for instance) doing it. We are a declining society world-wide and i understand it. So dont mind those with.delicate ears. You spoke well to those who are troubled by it and that shows your integrity. Never hand over your integrity to the masses. I imagine some people expected you to jump badd on them, glad you didnt. First time viewer. Dont know ifci can stay but i did enjoy your take on this. I'm kinda done with Mr. Anthony though. I'm sure he'll do fine without me.
The song IS for those it applies to, which is 99% of us. HOWEVER, he didn't say 'republicans', he said conservatives. That's a big difference in my mind. I'm put off at this because it was the conservatives on both sides of politics.
