Well, there was a generation fed up with everything in the 70s and 80s. After that it was all really mild. Look at the music, most protesting music came from the end of the cold war era. It's now that music is getting more statement artists. NOFX and Rage Against The Machine already said "it's now time for the new generation to stand up and fight". So now we see artists like Bob Vilain and Kneecap get enormous traction, and other small artists to start do the same: produce angry music with harsh teksts to make very clear statements and rile up the crowd to match against the evil.
So let's even do more! Make more music like this, march against and fight fascism, AI, billionaires, corrupt polititions, evil mega corporations, war criminals, etc.
We had the longest time in history of stability, safety and peace, never before was it on average this good for so long. Now we are in step decline. Prepare for war, let your voice heard, be active not passive.
