I'm a 58 year old veteran, healthy, unvaxxed, and well aware of all the lies. I have always liked many musicians, bands, and most genres of music-Neil Young is still no exception for me. He is equally prolific as Bob Dylan, and I love many of his songs.
I was surprised at his vehement stance against Rogan, like you Peter and John, particularly since he was a big part of the 60's counter-culture movement!
It really pissed me off, in fact.
In Young's stead, I happily found that Van Morrison, teamed with the likes of Clapton, took the opposite stance against government totalitarianism, the "vax," and the illegitimacy of covid and lockdowns altogether!
The old "Divide and Conquer Tactic" worked very well for globalists, but those like us have fought back harder than ever.
As the smoke clears, a lot of people, organizations, and so-called leaders are left looking pretty foolish, quick to judge, and even as far as to have said, "Vax or die!"
Those who stood strong, (and here I would like to thank Peter, Joe, and David, AmericanFrontlineDoctors, and a number of others very much for doing so,) have proven to the world that we all need to think critically and question ALL "authority figures" and every narrative.
That, my friends is the point-"Love thy neighbor as thyself," even if they wished death upon you by whole- heartedly believing an obvious lie.
However, it is definitely time for Neil Young to have the spirit of Steve Marriott serve Neil some "Humble Pie!"
I was just going to mention 70 year old Van Morrison who released “No More Lockdowns” at the time when young musicians were locking themselves in their bedrooms and playing music on Zoom, one in particular was a version of the Bee Gees Staying Alive called “Staying at Home” 🤮
This whole globalist attack on the world population is incredibly transparent, and we who stood up and delivered the truth, (like Van Morrison and Eric Clapton, a handful of Hollywood celebs, such as Mel Gibson, Mark Wahlberg, Jim Carrey, Jim Caviezel, and Keanu Reeves, along with comics Dave Chappelle, etc...) have been proven to be correct. It isn't the fooled populace that is to blame, only partially. It is truthfully those who run the world, and THEY HAVE FOR A LONG TIME! Have faith, there is a global military alliance that is and has been taking these "elites" down since 2017. I know, I'm a small part of it. If you are alive and reading this, be happy, because despite so many tragic losses of life, all of you have truthfully survived WW3! All will be exposed very soon! "Beware The Ides of March!" Evil has lost. Good, and God have triumphed!!!
I agree with most of your article. However, I’m afraid I have to disagree that we have to love our neighbor/enemy. There is a season for everything. And right now, it’s time to hate those who want to take our freedoms and give power to the fascists who are currently in charge. By the way, the progressive left has hated those who don’t think and act like them for the last 20-30 years. I’ve lived in the Bay Area for that long. And we used to say you can have any opinion you want as long as it’s just like the lefty progressive dipshits in charge of San Francisco and the state of California. I realize that mentality was wrong. We should have spoken up sooner. Perhaps then we wouldn't be in the mess we are in now.
I disagree. Hate is nothing more than the following. intense or passionate dislike. The left has tried to change the meaning of the word. There were plenty of things my parents taught me at young age to hate.
No Charlie. As much as I would love to agree with you, I have learned some things recently. Hate is the absence of love, the separation of you from the spirit that is GOD.
The most powerful force there ever was and will be....is Love. (Gods love through The Holy Spirit). It is the most powerful because those that experience it, cannot help but to be impacted by it when it's real. In these trying times...it is the only thing that will truly bring about change for the better. I have my own theory on hate: I believe hate is actually fear. (stems from fear when you get right down to the root of it in most cases)....which is from Satan. Nothing good will ever come from it. Just my personal opinion for what it's worth.
Love alone is not the solution. You can’t love your child into learning how to provide for their family. You can’t love a foreign soldier who wants to anialate your family and your countrymen into oblivion.
Love should be the only motivating force. I don’t have to hate the advancing soldier. But I love my family and my duty is to them. Ergo I must kill the enemy. Not out of hate, but because I love my family. I think it was Golda Meir who said ‘we will continue to have problems until Palestinians love their children more than they hate us.’
Hate & Love are pretty much on the same side of the intense emotional spectrum. I’m opting for complete indifference.. There lies a calmness & steadfastness of just not playing their game.
"There is a season for everything. And right now, it’s time to hate those who want to take our freedoms and give power to the fascists who are currently in charge. By the way, the progressive left has hated those who don’t think and act like them for the last 20-30 years."
Does anyone think we can hate what they do...and not 'hate' those who disagree with our own well supported opinions? We may 'hate' what they say and 'hate' what they do...but not 'hate' them as evolving god created humans who make mistakes?
My friends and relatives all have made mistakes and so have I....do I 'hate' them?
I try very hard to see them as multifaceted beings....some parts of which I may 'hate' and some parts not --- we all have different feelings for their actions and thoughts at different times. I suppose we can 'hate' Stalin...Hitler...Charlie Manson etc. But who good does that do?
In the profound words of Lynyrd Skynyrd--"Well I hope Neil Young will remember; a Southern Man don't need him around anyhow". After I learned what was behind their great song "Sweet Home Alabama", I agreed with them and could no longer tolerate listening to Young or any group he was a part of. I was also very disappointed in Mitchell, but I tend to give her a little more grace due to the tough health challenges she has had. Doesn't mean I agree with her though.
And I was proud of the actions of Van Morrison and Clapton. They are great musicians. And, Clapton is god with a small "g". Probably one of the best guitarists of our time.
Yes, artists, poets, and especially folk musicians must be the critics of their culture by definition. How hypocritical of Young and Joni Mitchell among so many others...
"Love thy neighbor as yourself" So long as it is possible! Love in that sense most often means TOUGH love as in correction for their own good / and everybody else's good too.
Many calling themselves Christians especially within "leadership" are FAKES that teach lies.
So, You are calling me a FAKE Christian and FAKE "Leader," who "teaches lies.
You with your hatred are only harming yourself. YOU, Darius, have absolutely NO CLUE about love, happiness and definitely not at all as to what the MILITARY HAS BEEN DOING SINCE 2017! Wake UP!
There are many in Neil Young’s boat. Dolly Parton with the remake of Jolene as an example. It’s really sad actually, the shine of so many stars went flat during Covid, many of them were an important part of our cultural fabric and identity and they let us down.
They're useful idiots for the gubbermint. As you mentioned, dolly changed the lyrics of jolene to vaccine. She's just pimped out by the establishment, and vanderbuilt.
It proves that great wealth does not equate with an ability not to be brainwashed. Their wealth inspired ivory towers have created a disconnect from the reality of every day life for the common people.
Springsteen has been a disappointment on many levels since he fundraised for Kerry (he was in Vietnam, you know LOL) and then Obama. He sang about the "working man" but completely betrayed his blue collar roots by supporting these Democrat globalist idiots.
Not all, but many. As young people, many came from privileged lifestyles that afforded them the ability to live their bohemian lifestyle supported by mommy and daddy. Many inherited fortunes and never really worked.
Crosby, Mitchell, Nash and Stills immediately joined Young as well as others in zombie-like knee-jerks, although Nash later made a sideways recantation. No one ever, as far as I know, pointed out just what the 'misinformation' was.
Four Dead in Ohio - you'd think the death toll from the VAX would merit an old-style protest song, think of the title prospects: "All Cause Mortality" or "Safe and Effective." How about "Died Suddenly" or "Lockdown" (kinda like Petty's Breakdown...). Write it, Neil!
Someone should introduce him to CHD and RFK - I think Young has an autistic adult child if I'm not mistaken. It's amazing he isn't aware of all vax issues. Interesting how he came back to Spotify. Perhaps he can write a new song...."Eating Crow"....
You’re right. He has a son. Wheelchair bound. Bridge School, Bay Area. Big fundraisers. Feel good about heroic philanthropy, but don’t be a critical thinker. Yes, there is now a Naomi Klein aspect to this. Canadian both, for sure, but, more importantly, living w vax injured loved ones and not being able to go to the dark places which may be called for now given the evil system we live in.
I'd like to think that he could be open to good, honest people sharing rooted information. The programming on the activist left is so deep. I asked microsoft search if Neil Young has an autistic child, what came back was he has two children with cerebral palsy, all three kids have health issues, not much info on third child, but no known autism.
Said one child was born w cerebral palsy, the other just said has many health issues, including cp. (I don't know how that figures into potential vaccine injury??)
(And in another search, I didn't see anything about child w autism, but he did perform at an autism benefit last spring in LA. The sad irony of all that.)
This is by the wonderful Tessa Lena, about Pfizer / Neil Young connections. I hope it's about influence on him by others, not a conscious want to raise Pfizer's stock price on the bodies of the dead and maimed.
I know there's more evil in this world, and it's more organized, than I realized a few years ago. But there are (some) people who do the bidding of evil but are coming from a well-meaning place. Probably also neurologically damaged in the area of curiosity ("The Indoctrinated Brain").
I won't claim to know for sure if Neil is one of those people, or is aware that those he accuses are actually right, and the official narrative is murderous. I hope he's not aware. It would be amazing if he could end up opening, face the cognitive dissonance and dread ... and write songs about it .. but that's probably too much to hope for ...
It's all tied to Trump hatred for many of these people. And someone had better tell Trump, who still thinks that shot was a great thing that he was wrong. He should have stuck to HCQ and Ivermectin - lots of people hoodwinked - I have no sympathy for any of these people and I cut them no slack. I had a friend tell me I was un-American for not taking the shot. I have not one ounce of compassion for these people because they helped bring us what came about.
Yes, Trump Derangement Syndrome was huge. The most zealous Vaxaholics are the most emotionally invested in Trump as worst-creature-to-ever-inhabit-any-planet.
People have been trying to tell Trump. Dr Alexander must have been trying. When Alex Jones was interviewed on the Highwire, Jones said he made a video for Trump, begging him to acknowledge the vaccine harms. Jones said he was told that Trump did watch it, and said he doesn't want to hear from those "anti-vaxers" again.
Whether that's true or not, RFK, Jr has the honesty, ability to read primary sources, integrity, etc, to go much further than saying it's a great vaccine but should be a choice ....
I'm hoping that if Trump can overcome the cheat (see 2000 Mules) he'll bring in RFK to clean out our "captured" agencies like the CDC, NIH and FDA. The old expression, that everything happens for a reason holds true here. Without COVID we would have never realized how beholden to big pharma and it's corruption our government is. It's just tragic that millions had to die to bring us the realization.
You should get your information correct, RFK Jr is an environmentalist big difference between a climate crisis monkey. He has super powers regarding critical thinking. He has done his research and his work. He doesn't just parrot popular thought, he changes it. He see's the agenda behind the so called climate crisis.
That’s a pretty damning piece of hearsay there, I don’t suppose you have a source for any of it? I like trump but think he’s needs to change his position on the VAX. I also think he’s smart enough to come to the light
I read Neil Young's biography some years ago. Did you know his father was a press reporter and was at the Ambassador Hotel when Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed in June '68? You would think Neil Young would "get it" a little more than he does.
I had his read his biography also but forgot about that. Currently reading Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon, Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops & The Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream by David McGowan. Nothing is as organic as it seems, rotten to the core. I highly recommend, you will be quite surprised at the lineage of well known names.
As a Canadian I can say I find it interesting that Mitchell comes from Salt Spring which is a hotbed for the Leftist Hippy culture and Young I believe is from the Toronto area. Both are traditional strongholds of the so called progressive movements. I'd also be willing to bet they have both done more than their fair share of "recreational " drugs. Hard to believe that people hang on the words of people like these. I think you will see a massive change up here in the next election. According to the polls somewhere in the area of 70% have had it with these woke brain dead a--holes.
I'm not sure he can go to the Emergency Act again. Seems like he got smacked down pretty hard the first time. Unless they gin up some kind of false flag to create an emergency.
Don't underestimate his capacity for lies and corruption. This particular government is pure unadulterated evil. Take a look around. With everything going on in Ukraine and Palestine how hard would it be to fabricate something? Why do you think he's trying to bring in censorship laws with punishments they won't even give a serial killer?
Are you Canadian? It seems odd to us Americans that Canada does not seem to have a tradition of free speech. I would hope that what Castreau is doing up there would cause a revolution down here, but who knows? Americans too seem much more docile lately with the advent of high tech brainwashing techniques.
We have a free speech tradition. It was based on British Common Law. When Pierre Trudeau repatriated the British North American Act it was substituted for our own real life constitution, with a real life Charter of Rights. However our Charter of Rights begins with Section 1, that states these rights mentioned are within the bounds of good governance and if the government so chooses it can override them. In other words, we don’t have any rights. At the time many of us were outraged. I said at the time we will be fine until we elect a dictator, in which case we would be screwed. Everyone else mostly thought I was being paranoid. It took forty years but we finally did - Pierre’s son Justin. But same as in the US your rights are being stripped and no one much is doing anything about it.
Thanks for the explanation. I don’t think our first amendment is dead yet, but it is on life-support. It has taken a lot of damage in the last four years as the government has figured out how to censor our speech through third-party hi tech companies that now serve as the Public Square. Thank God we can still say what we think on a couple forums including substack, Rumble and Twitter.
Hoping the Supreme Court will back us up in the case of Missouri versus Biden
You have that bedrock, 1A and 2A, to fall back on. We don’t. The US founding docs are the most important secular documents of all time. The world would have been taken by a dictator or a cabal of dictators by now without them. If the US falls the world falls. And it is close. The Deep State, which is real and ugly, is fully aligned against the individual. They are the enemy. And they run things.
Lol, hilarious. He lost all credibility, if he had any. They usually just flap their gums and never follow through. Look how many said they would leave the country if trump was president. Just useful idiots.
Neil young can go F himself All the times I went to see him I believed he was for the people All Bs Covid opened my eyes to so much BS ! I can never look back
"Old man, look at my life/unlike you/ I'm all about/defending Freedom..." Craven old fool, how you sold out every speck of your legacy. Buffoon and jester for the Court... how does he feel? Like a cuck.
I understand Freedom! I’m a third generation San Franciscan. I went to tons of concerts too! It’s not the same. It used to be such a carefree time (what I remember-lol)!
I lost my job after 23 years for no test/jab, 3 years ago.
I’m so sorry you had to endure that madness and lost your job but you stood your ground, I thank you. 🙏
Yes, I’m a bit of a romantic too, I look on those days ( from Monterey originally) and think my god, what a fabulous time. I hear you, some of those Winterland and Filmore shows were out of this world.
Ol Neil brought me through some very hard times as a teen and young woman. I bought every album that came out no matter the current musical experiment. I still have these vinyl albums but boxed them all up when he took that stance and joined The Man. His actions with Spotify shows he is part of the beast system.
Can't even listen to Neil Young any more ... For this supposedly thinking man, who was about freedom, who wrote "The Needle and The Damage Done"... He proved a total moron... The total opposite of the image he projects... Incapable of even thinking about past medical mistakes and placing them in context to the modern period, incapable of thinking about propaganda, censorship and hysteria ... Who wrote your songs Neil? It can't be this guy calling for censorship and authoritarianism...
Van Morrison and Eric Clapton however have a new fan in me, standing strong and standing up against oppression. Even releasing two great tracks calling for an end to the control and division.
Neil Young surprised me as he was always against GMOs if I recall correctly. But then a lot of health food types jumped on the vax train. Didn’t make sense to me. People are pretty surprising. These supposedly cool rock outlaws really folded without a question or a peep.
In their reality, that could be supported with flimsy articles & pronouncements made of bullshit they couldn't smell, in their reality the "vaccines" had huge benefit, and at most, minimal risk. Maybe even more than minimal risk, but the fate of humanity hung in the balance - the Saviour was The Only Way Out.
Also in that reality, it wasn't the recently vaccinated shedding that was a concern, it was that every unvaccinated person was a potential "typhoid mary", and the vaccinated were doing their part.
From believing that, it's not that much of a stretch to see some of the things that were done / said (some ... never justifying taking choice away from medical decisions or the cruel things done).
Of course that's a construction of claims and press releases and talking points, it's not real at all. The only part with elements of truth is indoor events like concerts have more potential to spread pathogens, and if anything the recently vaccinated were putting people at risk in crowded indoor spaces - shedding is real. And if anything, musicians would have been wise to listen to the covid docs and help share the info they were sharing about treatment / prevention. Backwards world ..
A lot of health, organic people were manipulated by weaponized compassion. Interconnectedness, care for the vulnerable ... + manipulated information that constructed a fake world where safe and effective is the good guys, and conspiracy theorists are the bad guys, and Wikipedia is The Oracle.
Other artists that still write protest songs are Muse (Compliance), Ian Brown (formerly of Stone Roses) (Little Seed, Big Tree), and the vax injured Eric Clapton of course.
I will have to check those out. I would also add Van Morrison to your list in the rock field. Of course there are also a lot of rap artists who have done some good protests against the narrative including Tom MacDonald, Adam Calhoun, Hi-Rez and Chris Webby to name a few.
I do video reactions under the name Old Man in Chairs on both YouTube and Rumble. On Rumble I have split into two channels with an Old Man in Chairs Political Channel reviewing all the political songs.
I'm a 58 year old veteran, healthy, unvaxxed, and well aware of all the lies. I have always liked many musicians, bands, and most genres of music-Neil Young is still no exception for me. He is equally prolific as Bob Dylan, and I love many of his songs.

Evil has lost. Good, and God have triumphed!!!
I would so like to believe this. If it is true, why is Reiner still in prison?
I do feel a "change" in the air...I hope with all my soul it is not wishful thinking.
I heard a talk by Pascal Najadi was greatly encouraged...he also was optimistic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6UQTLg91GU
Thanks for the link, as Van the man says, over to whoever represents the people, if there's anyone left who does.
I agree with most of your article. However, I’m afraid I have to disagree that we have to love our neighbor/enemy. There is a season for everything. And right now, it’s time to hate those who want to take our freedoms and give power to the fascists who are currently in charge. By the way, the progressive left has hated those who don’t think and act like them for the last 20-30 years. I’ve lived in the Bay Area for that long.

I realize that mentality was wrong. We should have spoken up sooner. Perhaps then we wouldn't be in the mess we are in now.
Hating people makes you less effective at fighting them. Same goes for loving them. Don't hate them. Defeat them in cold calculated blood.
I disagree. Hate is nothing more than the following. intense or passionate dislike. The left has tried to change the meaning of the word. There were plenty of things my parents taught me at young age to hate.
No Charlie. As much as I would love to agree with you, I have learned some things recently. Hate is the absence of love, the separation of you from the spirit that is GOD.
Hate serves no purpose.
Glenda Green, look up her book.
The most powerful force there ever was and will be....is Love. (Gods love through The Holy Spirit). It is the most powerful because those that experience it, cannot help but to be impacted by it when it's real.

We have to play their game though. Because it isn’t a game. It is real. They are intent on hurting us and our children.
Now you’re going to have to fight for your freedom.
Gladly
True!
"There is a season for everything. And right now, it’s time to hate those who want to take our freedoms and give power to the fascists who are currently in charge. By the way, the progressive left has hated those who don’t think and act like them for the last 20-30 years."

What a fool. So much for all those old time rockers whose whole schtick was sticking it to the man. Turns out it was all for show.
I agree, Bono is another great example of a buffoon. I would not go across the street to see any of them. Bone heads.
Another one whose
music I truly loved for decades but I can’t stand to see people idolized as a deep thinker and guru, when they don’t know what they’re talking abt.
Not to mention most likely a prolific consumption of mind altering drugs contributes to their warped views.
There are many in Neil Young’s boat. Dolly Parton with the remake of Jolene as an example. It’s really sad actually, the shine of so many stars went flat during Covid, many of them were an important part of our cultural fabric and identity and they let us down.

Bruce Springsteen was among the big disappointments.
Springsteen has been a disappointment on many levels since he fundraised for Kerry (he was in Vietnam, you know LOL) and then Obama. He sang about the "working man" but completely betrayed his blue collar roots by supporting these Democrat globalist idiots.
Yeah that was a big disappointment for me too. No respect for him anymore. I just can't.
What happened to these hippies. They turned into “the man”.
Not all, but many. As young people, many came from privileged lifestyles that afforded them the ability to live their bohemian lifestyle supported by mommy and daddy. Many inherited fortunes and never really worked.
They have TV's.
Crosby, Mitchell, Nash and Stills immediately joined Young as well as others in zombie-like knee-jerks, although Nash later made a sideways recantation. No one ever, as far as I know, pointed out just what the 'misinformation' was.

I know there's more evil in this world, and it's more organized, than I realized a few years ago. But there are (some) people who do the bidding of evil but are coming from a well-meaning place. Probably also neurologically damaged in the area of curiosity ("The Indoctrinated Brain").
I won't claim to know for sure if Neil is one of those people, or is aware that those he accuses are actually right, and the official narrative is murderous. I hope he's not aware. It would be amazing if he could end up opening, face the cognitive dissonance and dread ... and write songs about it .. but that's probably too much to hope for ...
It's all tied to Trump hatred for many of these people. And someone had better tell Trump, who still thinks that shot was a great thing that he was wrong. He should have stuck to HCQ and Ivermectin - lots of people hoodwinked - I have no sympathy for any of these people and I cut them no slack. I had a friend tell me I was un-American for not taking the shot. I have not one ounce of compassion for these people because they helped bring us what came about.
Yes, Trump Derangement Syndrome was huge. The most zealous Vaxaholics are the most emotionally invested in Trump as worst-creature-to-ever-inhabit-any-planet.
People have been trying to tell Trump. Dr Alexander must have been trying. When Alex Jones was interviewed on the Highwire, Jones said he made a video for Trump, begging him to acknowledge the vaccine harms. Jones said he was told that Trump did watch it, and said he doesn't want to hear from those "anti-vaxers" again.
Whether that's true or not, RFK, Jr has the honesty, ability to read primary sources, integrity, etc, to go much further than saying it's a great vaccine but should be a choice ....
I'm hoping that if Trump can overcome the cheat (see 2000 Mules) he'll bring in RFK to clean out our "captured" agencies like the CDC, NIH and FDA. The old expression, that everything happens for a reason holds true here. Without COVID we would have never realized how beholden to big pharma and it's corruption our government is. It's just tragic that millions had to die to bring us the realization.
But he (rfk) also believes the climate crisis nonsense. His critical thinking cap is limited.
You should get your information correct, RFK Jr is an environmentalist big difference between a climate crisis monkey. He has super powers regarding critical thinking. He has done his research and his work. He doesn't just parrot popular thought, he changes it. He see's the agenda behind the so called climate crisis.
Nope. He is all in. He is denouncing the climate movement as he says it has been hijacked by a globalist agenda. He won’t say it is wrong though.
My info is correct. And btw, he's only against the quackscenes because his kids are messed up from them, which means he biught into them as well.
That’s a pretty damning piece of hearsay there, I don’t suppose you have a source for any of it? I like trump but think he’s needs to change his position on the VAX. I also think he’s smart enough to come to the light
He better wise up soon!
Trumpenstein is a plug of mud in the hole in the dam.
I stand with you, Doors.
Of course in his defense, he is Canadian. They don't seem to believe in Free Speech up there.
I read Neil Young's biography some years ago. Did you know his father was a press reporter and was at the Ambassador Hotel when Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed in June '68? You would think Neil Young would "get it" a little more than he does.
I had his read his biography also but forgot about that. Currently reading Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon, Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops & The Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream by David McGowan. Nothing is as organic as it seems, rotten to the core. I highly recommend, you will be quite surprised at the lineage of well known names.
Will check it out. Remember, truth is often stranger than fiction!
Sounds interesting!
As a Canadian I can say I find it interesting that Mitchell comes from Salt Spring which is a hotbed for the Leftist Hippy culture and Young I believe is from the Toronto area. Both are traditional strongholds of the so called progressive movements. I'd also be willing to bet they have both done more than their fair share of "recreational " drugs. Hard to believe that people hang on the words of people like these. I think you will see a massive change up here in the next election. According to the polls somewhere in the area of 70% have had it with these woke brain dead a--holes.
I certainly hope you are right, and that Trudeau doesn't figure out a way to steal the election.
Look for him to invoke the emergencies act on some pretext. That or outright voter fraud would be the only options he has at this point.
I'm not sure he can go to the Emergency Act again. Seems like he got smacked down pretty hard the first time. Unless they gin up some kind of false flag to create an emergency.
Don't underestimate his capacity for lies and corruption. This particular government is pure unadulterated evil. Take a look around. With everything going on in Ukraine and Palestine how hard would it be to fabricate something? Why do you think he's trying to bring in censorship laws with punishments they won't even give a serial killer?
Are you Canadian? It seems odd to us Americans that Canada does not seem to have a tradition of free speech. I would hope that what Castreau is doing up there would cause a revolution down here, but who knows? Americans too seem much more docile lately with the advent of high tech brainwashing techniques.
We have a free speech tradition. It was based on British Common Law. When Pierre Trudeau repatriated the British North American Act it was substituted for our own real life constitution, with a real life Charter of Rights. However our Charter of Rights begins with Section 1, that states these rights mentioned are within the bounds of good governance and if the government so chooses it can override them. In other words, we don’t have any rights. At the time many of us were outraged. I said at the time we will be fine until we elect a dictator, in which case we would be screwed. Everyone else mostly thought I was being paranoid. It took forty years but we finally did - Pierre’s son Justin. But same as in the US your rights are being stripped and no one much is doing anything about it.
Thanks for the explanation. I don’t think our first amendment is dead yet, but it is on life-support. It has taken a lot of damage in the last four years as the government has figured out how to censor our speech through third-party hi tech companies that now serve as the Public Square. Thank God we can still say what we think on a couple forums including substack, Rumble and Twitter.
Hoping the Supreme Court will back us up in the case of Missouri versus Biden
You have that bedrock, 1A and 2A, to fall back on. We don’t. The US founding docs are the most important secular documents of all time. The world would have been taken by a dictator or a cabal of dictators by now without them. If the US falls the world falls. And it is close. The Deep State, which is real and ugly, is fully aligned against the individual. They are the enemy. And they run things.
He thought he was more important than Joe Rogan, he lost for 2 years comes back on his knees.
Must of needed some $$$
Lol, hilarious. He lost all credibility, if he had any. They usually just flap their gums and never follow through. Look how many said they would leave the country if trump was president. Just useful idiots.
Neil young can go F himself All the times I went to see him I believed he was for the people All Bs Covid opened my eyes to so much BS ! I can never look back
"Old man, look at my life/unlike you/ I'm all about/defending Freedom..." Craven old fool, how you sold out every speck of your legacy. Buffoon and jester for the Court... how does he feel? Like a cuck.
Used to love his music. I think my programming broke because the music doesn’t make me happy like it used to.
I used to love his music too. A friend of mine told me early on our hero’s are gonna disappoint us and well they have, breaks my heart.
I never was into hollyweird, but I was an avid concert goer, music lover.
I lived not far from
the bay area and went to hundreds of concerts. Now so many have disappointed and sold out!
Check out this song, Brad @Five Times August is my new hero!
He calls out Neil and many others in this song.

I understand Freedom! I’m a third generation San Franciscan. I went to tons of concerts too! It’s not the same. It used to be such a carefree time (what I remember-lol)!
I lost my job after 23 years for no test/jab, 3 years ago.
Great song you shared!!!!
I’m so sorry you had to endure that madness and lost your job but you stood your ground, I thank you. 🙏
Yes, I’m a bit of a romantic too, I look on those days ( from Monterey originally) and think my god, what a fabulous time. I hear you, some of those Winterland and Filmore shows were out of this world.
Bless you!
Thanks for the link. I saw over a hundred Grateful Dead concerts and their opening bands. I don’t remember all of it , lol
Great song snd graphics!!! Says it all!
Ol Neil brought me through some very hard times as a teen and young woman. I bought every album that came out no matter the current musical experiment. I still have these vinyl albums but boxed them all up when he took that stance and joined The Man. His actions with Spotify shows he is part of the beast system.
Can't even listen to Neil Young any more ... For this supposedly thinking man, who was about freedom, who wrote "The Needle and The Damage Done"... He proved a total moron... The total opposite of the image he projects... Incapable of even thinking about past medical mistakes and placing them in context to the modern period, incapable of thinking about propaganda, censorship and hysteria ... Who wrote your songs Neil? It can't be this guy calling for censorship and authoritarianism...
Van Morrison and Eric Clapton however have a new fan in me, standing strong and standing up against oppression. Even releasing two great tracks calling for an end to the control and division.

Neil Young surprised me as he was always against GMOs if I recall correctly. But then a lot of health food types jumped on the vax train. Didn’t make sense to me. People are pretty surprising. These supposedly cool rock outlaws really folded without a question or a peep.
In their reality, that could be supported with flimsy articles & pronouncements made of bullshit they couldn't smell, in their reality the "vaccines" had huge benefit, and at most, minimal risk. Maybe even more than minimal risk, but the fate of humanity hung in the balance - the Saviour was The Only Way Out.
Also in that reality, it wasn't the recently vaccinated shedding that was a concern, it was that every unvaccinated person was a potential "typhoid mary", and the vaccinated were doing their part.
From believing that, it's not that much of a stretch to see some of the things that were done / said (some ... never justifying taking choice away from medical decisions or the cruel things done).
Of course that's a construction of claims and press releases and talking points, it's not real at all. The only part with elements of truth is indoor events like concerts have more potential to spread pathogens, and if anything the recently vaccinated were putting people at risk in crowded indoor spaces - shedding is real. And if anything, musicians would have been wise to listen to the covid docs and help share the info they were sharing about treatment / prevention. Backwards world ..
A lot of health, organic people were manipulated by weaponized compassion. Interconnectedness, care for the vulnerable ... + manipulated information that constructed a fake world where safe and effective is the good guys, and conspiracy theorists are the bad guys, and Wikipedia is The Oracle.
Five Times August has written plenty of good protest songs recently, including this one Ain’t No Rock and Roll, noting the loss of our musician objectors. https://music.apple.com/us/album/aint-no-rock-and-roll/1706873592?i=1706873751
Dude I was just gonna post this. Thank you for beating me to it. Great song, too, and perfect for the moment.
Agree! Great song and great video too. Really savage take down of all those hypocrites!
Other artists that still write protest songs are Muse (Compliance), Ian Brown (formerly of Stone Roses) (Little Seed, Big Tree), and the vax injured Eric Clapton of course.
I will have to check those out. I would also add Van Morrison to your list in the rock field. Of course there are also a lot of rap artists who have done some good protests against the narrative including Tom MacDonald, Adam Calhoun, Hi-Rez and Chris Webby to name a few.
I do video reactions under the name Old Man in Chairs on both YouTube and Rumble. On Rumble I have split into two channels with an Old Man in Chairs Political Channel reviewing all the political songs.
not to mention Van Morrison....NO MORE LOCKDOWN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUOWS7arfw4
"no more fascist police disturbing our peace....no more taking of our freedom...."
I was trying to remember him, he’s done a lot in fact.
Superb subtitle.
