It's an excellent point--for those who live without memory, the mistakes of the past are bound to be repeated frequently. It's why the focus on reporting "now" in the news is so destructive...a random car accident death in the grand scheme of things is much less important than a local city council decision but "if it bleeds it leads". Combined with consolidation of media ownership (lack of diversity and voice), especially including corporate music dominance in publishing and distribution, is the death knell of protest, change and democratic participation.

The fact the youth of today mostly feel they only have a voice through Zuckerfuck and data scraping IG/FB OR Chinese state sponsored manipulation and data scraping Bytedance/TT certainly answers Ops question as to where the protest music is...
