* Author Emile Zola wrote a famous accusation near the end of the 19th century, simply called "J'accuse" ("I Accuse") in which he criticized the French government for condemning Jewish military officer Alfred Dreyfus. Dreyfus was convicted of treason, but as it turned out antisemitism was the real reason-he got made the scapegoat. Zola's written attack was a huge scandal back then and he was prosecuted too, but later he was VindicatedByHistory, with Dreyfus being released and exonerated. The scandal had a tremendous impact both on France (where it entrenched secularism) and Jewish life in Europe as a secular Austrian Jew of the name Theodor Herzl who hadn't felt particularly Jewish up to that point came to the conclusion that Jews would need their own state if they were ever to live free of prejudice and persecution, thus giving birth to Zionism.

* Creator/SinclairLewis was famous and controversial in the interwar period for his satires of American life. His BreakthroughHit ''Main Street'' was set in a [[NoCommunitiesWereHarmed transparent parody]] of his childhood hometown of Sauk Centre, Minnesota, the residents of which were so displeased by his depiction of the town that he set many of his later novels in the [[FictionalProvince fictional Midwestern state]] of Winnemac to deflect similar criticism. When he became the first American author to win the UsefulNotes/NobelPrizeInLiterature in 1930, many of his horrified American contemporaries suspected that it was chiefly because he [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff flattered the Europeans' biases]] in depicting Americans as boorish social climbers, to the point where Lewis Mumford called it a StealthInsult towards America on the part of the Nobel committee.

* Israeli musician Ehud Manor wrote "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMD-g_YP2wA I Have No Other Land]]" during the 1982 Lebanon War, though it was inspired by his brother's death in the Six-Day War. Its message is decidedly of the MyCountryRightOrWrong, ''if wrong, to be set right'' perspective -- Manor loves his country, even when he strongly disagrees with its actions. It has become a popular protest song in Israel, including during the 2023 protests against the proposed judicial reform.
