I hope old Neil will remember...
Who is Neil Young?
He’s a Canadian born liberal, what do you expect?
Neil is a libtard moron but he’s made some good music over the years.
PJW is correct.
The idiot these guys mention. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GxWmSVv-cY
Why anybody cares what that washed up old Canadian thinks is beyond me. It’s not that he can’t express his opinions, it’s that nobody cares what those opinions are.
A drunk pothead Canadian liberal at that!
He’s now an American citizen
“He’s now an American citizen”
So? So is Cruz but he’s still nothing but a lousy Canadian liberal.
I have it on good authority that a Southern Man don’t need him around, anyhow.
1960’s Neil Young would have hated 2022’s Neil Young…
Neil/Joni - such a convenient Canadian story while FakeNewsMSM virtually ignores the massive Canadian Freedom Convoy protest against vax mandates!
following is framed as a protest against Rogan, who has expressed opposition to young, healthy people being covid vaxxed. can’s say too much about Rogan’s position, can we? and certainly can’t say IVERMECTIN, can we?
17m20s to 22m45s: Neil Young/Joni Mitchell/Spotify. guest ends with it might need major Spotify podcasters like the Obamas, Harry & Meghan, to get Spotify to drop Rogan;
“long covid” segment - 39m17s to 43m.:
AUDIO: 52m59s: BBC World Service: Newshour
Presenter: Julian Marshall
Also in the programme: Joni Mitchell removes her songs from Spotify; and a new study into breathlessness and long Covid.

btw I haven’t heard a word on the Freedom Convoy on BBC radio, but found this posted an hour ago. framed as “extremist” “conservative” etc, but says it has attracted people like Joe Rogan and Russell Brand but doesn’t mention they are considered to be of the LEFT?
29 Jan: BBC: Freedom Convoy: Why Canadian truckers are protesting in Ottawa
By Jessica Murphy, BBC News, Toronto
Organisers insist it will be peaceful, but police say they’re prepared for trouble...
Upset with the new measure that would require unvaccinated Canadian truckers crossing the two nations’ boundary to quarantine once they’ve returned home, a loose coalition of truckers and conservative groups began to organise the cross-country drive that began in western Canada...
The unusual protest even caught the attention of people outside Canada’s borders, with podcaster ***Joe Rogan, Donald Trump Jr - the son of the former US president - and British comedian ***Russell Brand showing support...
But police say they are concerned about how the convoy has attracted ***extremist rhetoric, and some ***far-right groups have suggested they ***might also head to Ottawa.
“The demonstrations this weekend will be unique - fluid, risky and significant,” Ottawa police chief Peter Sloly said on Friday, noting they are “massive in scale” and “unfortunately they are polarising in nature”...
He said that police are preparing for potential parallel and counter-demonstrations and were concerned about people on social media in Canada and abroad ***”who may or may not come to the city” but “who are nonetheless inciting hate, violence and in some cases criminality”***.
Organisers have called out fringe elements, urging participants to report any misbehaviour. Mr Jonker also said extremists would not be welcome.
Police have urged locals to avoid the gridlocked downtown core...
‘A real threat of unintended consequences’
Canadians are broadly supportive of vaccine mandates - over 80% of the eligible population is fully vaccinated - and Mr Trudeau this week denounced the convoy and its supporters as a “small fringe minority”...
But the convoy has received some support from Conservative politicians...
The Canadian Trucking Alliance estimates that 85% to 90% of the 120,000 Canadian truckers who work cross-border routes are vaccinated and said on Saturday that it appeared many of the protesters in Ottawa have no connection to the industry.
While the alliance does not support the convoy and has said the industry must adapt to the mandate, it is said the measure could remove as many as 16,000 drivers from those routes...

He’s such a stupid girl...
PJW is the bomb, had me LOLing.
Not only that but he’s a fascist, which is a delicious irony for the writer of “Ohio”.
The police are doing their master’s bidding well.
They are trying to stoke suspicion, fear, and dissension and pit the participants against each other.
I’m sure there are nefarious elements who will try to use this, but the police response, instead of trying to paint the “protesters” as extremist and volatile, should be making statements that they are ready and able to deal with any attempts to incite violence while the peaceful citizens address their government.
he’s the dude lying down on the highway in front of the truck convoy
The reason many people care about it is because the far-left MSM is extremely hungry for more "Cancel Culture" stories. So the MSM is rapidly creating lots of articles about Neil Young's demand that Spotify immediately cancel Joe Rogan. Then Joni Mitchell made the same demand of Spotify. They're the far-left "leaders." I expect many more far-left artists to join the "cause." The cause is that Joe Rogan has an opinion they don't like, so the far-left progressives demand that Joe Rogan be cancelled. The socialist/communist MSM will happily get the word out for them, riling up the far-left Democrat/RINO base. So expect Spotify to get flooded with emails from angry customers who all make a similar demand: Either cancel Joe Rogan now or I'll cancel my Spotify membership.
