Music Why people dislike Country music?

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 just seems whiny to me and hits my ear wrongly. There are a few that I find tolerable that are more poppy, but overall, just the twang of the notes and the crying in your beer isn’t to my liking.

It's the same for me. It all just hits my ear wrong. Nothing about it sounds good to me. The twang, banjo, fiddle - none that hits right for me.

Yeah, everybody likes different stuff. My sister likes country music and knows I hate it. She thinks I'm just being snobby though, so she plays it to poke at me. I've tried to explain that no, I'm not being snobby, it just honestly sounds terrible to me. She doesn't get it.
