That's the HOPE of a 'protest song'. Whether it does make a difference or not remains to be determined as FACT. And it seems that could be a very difficult aspect to measure...or credit. I'm not totally behind you in The Pot being put in the 'protest song' list, but I'd agree that I don't associate the genre with Tool.
