I hope this is alright with u/zeckz, but do want this group to exist on lemmy.world. He’s got a group going at https://squabbles.io/s/songaweek. I’m hoping this can be an active sister group since squabbles is not federated.

The Twenty Eighth Week

This seems to be the theme of the 21st century, and also seems to only be increasing. The governments and ultra rich people in all countries are feeding each other’s pockets to the detriment of the entire population. Down at lower levels, the taxes and fines are increasing and the earnings are decreasing. Housing prices are through the roof, the cost of living is outstripping wages, and moronic people are in charge of things that they shouldn’t be in charge of. It’s bleak, but there must be still goodness left in the population??! Write a song this week that tackles greed, from any point of view.
