The problem with posting protest songs is that they tend to lead to this kind of falling out. That's why I try to keep my comments to the song itself - does it work as a song, rather than do I agree with what it says? This is a songwriting forum after all. Even then, it can be problematic. I once said on another forum that someone's protest song would work better as a song if it wasn't so mean spirited and contained something other than a succession of insults. What i got back was a succession of insults LOL.
In general, I think protest songs should have a call to action, however vague, rather than just a complaint. They are better if they aim to inspire change, rather than just list grievances.
