“They yearn for the era where artists controlled distribution of music.”

Not that I support Young at all but there’s never been such an era.

I 100% agree with him.

If you work for a company that you are morally opposed to, leave.
Don’t stay where you are not welcome. It is better for you, better for the company, and better for someone that wants the job.

I was reading “Blood Work”, and was struck by how many employees felt they were “Trapped” working there. Move on and move up.

These freaking Baby Boomers are a sight to behold.

Their anti-war, anti-establishment, Free-love, drugged-up days of bucking their parents and sticking it to “the man” hippie days of yore, have produced the most tyrannical, clutching onto control, oppressive government in my lifetime.

Octogenarians with their wrinkled and grizzled faces and their lust for eternal life and power over everyone and everything is quite something.

Lucky for us, they will NOT live forever and their clutch on power is crumbling before their very wrinkled eyes.

May their demise move ever more quickly!

Neil parcels out his insanity in drips and drab so as to keep the spotlight on him. Now he is going after the company CEO. I think dementia and drugs has caved in his mind and the only thing he sees is the spotlight of fame shining on him. He keeps crawling to it like some broken butterfly or a moth that got high on the mothball poison in his fedora. But the spotlight is unforgiving, we see his bleak cowering insanity and maybe feel pity or contempt. The reason is clear why he is there — not to present a rational argument — but to enjoy the last twinkling of notoriety as he fades into the night.

Barstool Sports did a little research. Its founder and CEO appears to have been the target as the same group of hipsters that are going after Rogan.

Here’s a clip of what they found...If it doesn’t play or if you don’t have access to Instagram, get a 20-something you know, one of your kids or young neighbors to play the clip for you. I wish it was longer...

Where does Neil Young even find the time to have his secretary write this crap for, since he spends most of his days filming the little boys playing on the field at schools and parks all day??

Neil Aqualung...

Neil Young lives in a 'commune delusion' from the 60's - where people start businesses for 'art' and everyone gives according to their ability and takes according to their need... and some 'wise' monster takes away freedom of speech and guides the cult - kinda like a Charlie Manson...

GROW UP NEIL YOUNG - THE REASON YOU COULD PUT YOUR SONGS OUT IN THE 60'S WAS BECAUSE OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT.

HONOR FREE SPEECH FOR THE REST OF US NOW - YOU HAD YOUR TURN

"A long time ago Ronnie Van Zant suggested young kiss the Southern man’s ass in song......I second that sentiment."

Ronnie and Neal were friends. Neal gave Ronnie a song that they were going to do but were killed before they could.

Here is the song done by the Cowboy Junkies:

Powderfinger

They didn’t steal Neil’s soul, he just left....

——————————————-

I believe he SOLD his soul.

Chanel Rion of One America News reported this morning that Neil Young had previously sold half of his music catalog to Blackrock (the investment company) and he is heavily invested in Pfizer.

“Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ol’ Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don’t need him around anyhow”

Doesn’t sound too friendly to me

Lived in Skynyrds home town my whole life...it’s no secret here that RVZ was a bit of a hard ass.

The problem is that Neil Young isn’t a liberal.
What’s that old quote? “Scratch a liberal and you get fascist blood”.
Capital L Liberal vs lower case l liberal I guess is the distinction.

Spotify is a Swedish company. I have to wonder if Silicon Valley tycoons aren’t trying to take out some competition.
