A lot of it also depends on the generation of the genre.  For example, can anyone here really picture a racist Jason Aldean/Kenny Chesney/Jake Owen/Tim McGraw fan?

Yes. You'd probably find a large number of them if you move to Virginia (depending on where in VA).

I honestly can't picture it.

In all seriousness, charts "country" followed by the other charts crap (Top40). Mostly because are, literally, music targeted towards morons. And rural(ish) white morons in the first case.

The real answer is probably mainstream country music, yes. I second Lewis's post on all counts.

Of popular music, yes. The overall winner would probably be black metal (more mainstream/older metal tends to be anti-racist, if anything)

Metal in general is fascist.

I don't really see how, without making some radical assumptions. Off hand, I can think of many more examples of left-wing/anti-fascist content in metal than right-wing/fascist content, but the majority is still pretty much strictly apolitical.

As my screnname suggests, I love classic rock, and I'm certainly the antihesis of racist.  I don't see how any of those as being bigoted or political in any nature (except for the songs that were written for that purpose).
