There don't have to be any protest songs. The message could be carried by another medium.
I also think right now that there is a period of uncertainty and intimidation going on. No industry wants to step into the limelight speaking up against the magas for fear of direct reprisals from the government or from those who really like it or having their attorneys targeted. So maybe the big kahunas of the music industry are less inclined to publish protest songs when they know an orange sh!tstorm will come their way when they do.
It may also be too early for any protest song to be written, recorded, and to have gained enough traction for anyone to notice.

I'm assuming you're talking about the US leadership? Eminem has been putting out music critical of every (2) Republican president since getting big.

Big artists benefit too much from the system. People seem to give passes to the rich they like, but they're all our enemies. No amount of good they could possibly do would offset the support and participation they provide to this machine of destruction.

This isn't the 90's or 00's. Rebellion against the system is no longer the "cool" theme for artists to make money on.

Using this as a place to infodump because I just learned it: you know how haikus follow a 5-7-5 syllable pattern? For corridos every line is 8 syllables.
