Morgan Wallen, 'God's country,' SNL memes take over the internet

Country star Morgan Wallen has taken over the internet — though perhaps for a reason he may not love. His recent Saturday Night Liveappearance and subsequent post about returning to "God's country" has become a meme of sorts, most of which are poking fun at Wallen.

In case you missed it, Wallen appeared to storm offstage as the credits rolled on the sketch show. He later posted a picture of a private jet to his Instagram stories, captioning it, "Get me to God's country."

All of this was read by many as a slight aimed at some combination of SNL,New York City, or East Coast liberals in general. Wallen has a complicated history with SNL— his first appearance was cancelled over violating COVID protocols. Not long after that controversy, Wallen faced major backlash when footage of him saying the N-word surfaced. But he's since become even more popular, especially among right-wingers, who revere him as a sort of martyr figure.

That context makes a bit more clear what Wallen means when he says "God's country:" He's seemingly yearning to return to the conservative parts of the country where he has more fans.

In response, folks online started poking fun at the post, showcasing what theyfeel is the real "God's country."

It's a funny meme that is not necessarily directly making fun of Wallen — but it does zoom in on the absurdity of an impossibly rich musician complaining about The Big City as he climbs into a private jet.

If anything, the meme shows we all have our personal God's country. Mine? Pal, it's a Buffalo Wild Wings.
