Mike & The Mechanics - Silent Running

This song came out in the mid-eighties, right in the middle of the "evil" Reagan-Bush Era. So, I "ax" the question: Is it a song of the left, or the song of the "right"?

It has some words that sounds lefty, but also has words that sound "righty". For instance, there's a reference to guns, and another to God. These sound "righty". But there's a reference against authority, which sounds lefty.

Then there's a reference to family, which also sounds "righty".

Whether it was intended to be lefty or "righty", it is definitely pro-freedom. Ultimately, that is what it is all about. Either you are enthralled to the all-powerful, or you are free. As long as the conservative faction remains true to freedom and truth, it is on the "right side of history". The left isn't. They are committed to evil, and they know it. That's why they have to lie, and keep the truth from the people. It is not for the good of all that they act in secret. They act in secret in order to conceal their evil plans for us all. Therefore, they know what the truth is, and it isn't to set you free. Quite the contrary.
