LOL This is just hilarious to be mentioned now.
The night he was elected, I said to my friends that I was looking forward to the onslaught of protest music like we hadn't heard since the 60s. I've brought this up multiple times over the years and, as you'll find in this thread, have only come across a sparse handful of songs. You have a very real point that's going to be minimized by those attempting to prove you wrong with the mention of a single song.
I wasn't around in the 60s but my impression, gathered from popular music at the time, was that a lot of people were anti-government, certainly anti-war. Music was largely how a generation of young people expressed themselves and the future of mankind will remember them. Today, they do so in fleeting moments on social media.
If you're following me down this rabbit hole, consider that we're living in a time that will be forgotten in the not too distant future. We all have the power to record and document our lives and feelings but no one is really listening.
Given that TikTok is our Woodstock, who's documenting all this? People are protesting out there but who's listening? People are making music but who's brave enough to promote it? When the polarization of our politics is distilled down to the meme of the hour, who even remembers what happened two weeks ago?
