It's going to be a lot of "that homespun wisdom being ratcheted up to 11 and slathered onto topics of today" which will likely get patronizing quickly, especially if they try to make fun of the younger generation without understanding them.

Maybe I'm wrong but

I hope I'm wrong, but I almost immediately got strong 'gonna make a lot of alt-righty type pronoun joke' type vibes that I have a feeling will end up being satirized in a way that is so OTT that either they'll end up just coming off as edgelord cringe or will loop so far around they completely miss the point and become unironically MAGA talking points.
