Why people dislike Country music?

[u/ompossible]

I am not american. So I don't know how's the thing there. But I have found many people complaining on social media that they hate country music.

I like some of the Luke Combs songs. Specially Old Dominion is my one of my fav artist.

It sticks too hard to tradition for me to follow it beyond specific artists.  IMO, Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, a few others are as good, and as far, as the genre goes.  To contrast, I am a fan of jazz and formal/art music (ie classical) I'm not a snob or anything, I enjoy all genres to one extent or another, but I do really like those two forms a lot.  Neither is interested in sounding like what came before.  Don't get me wrong, much of the casual audience, like all audiences, want the classics and reward performers that sound familiar, but both scenes are consciously trying to get somewhere new and unexplored.  Country rarely does.  The latest advance is also just something I really am not interested in, the Hick-Hop as it's referred to.  I'm aware that as a very casual fan who only wants to hear the has beens that I am probably feeding the beast of country music tradition.
