The joke is that the song is inherently political, even before the language change to be current, and even without that change the song is explicitly about those people anyway.

I realize that.

What language change to be current?

During a New Year's performance, they updated "Redneck Agenda" to "MAGA Agenda"

Removes the plausible deniability about who "redneck" was referring to. I wouldn't be surprised if some thought it was a slur against natives. "MAGA" clearly says "you are in this picture and I don't like you". And some might even realize that they always were in that picture.
