Last week, a rap song titled "Facts" by artist Tom MacDonald and political commentator Ben Shapiro, hit #1 on the iTunes chart.
This was significant because the tune was released independently and symbolized a victory over the authoritarian system of the music industry. Secondly, Shapiro, who is not a rapper, came under the limelight for his conservative commentary-style rap.
Conservative values have been dominating much of the zeitgeist for the past couple of years. The political dialectic will always continue to shift between left and right, and data shows that more young people are leaning right. For this moment in time, "Facts" has managed to capture the collective consciousness with its edgy creativity, helping to disseminate the philosophy of the right.
Currently, Jupiter and Saturn are in a soft alignment. Jupiter symbolizes philosophy and popularity while Saturn symbolizes tradition and limitation."Facts" expresses this archetypal combination because it's celebrating conservative philosophy, and popularizing it at the same time too.
