Watching all the old hippie musicians fight against free speech in favor of Big Government and Big Pharma is the funniest shit I've ever seen.— Catturd ™ (@catturd2) January 30, 2022
All of these old hippies are sure letting their TRUE commie show, aren’t they?
Don McLean of ‘American Pie’ fame tells Fox News Digital, ‘I did the right thing with my life’
On a ‘wonderfully civil’ America ‘back then’
He’s performed for so many thousands of people throughout his career, seen so much of the country over the decades, engaged with so many over time. What observations about our country would he share?
“The America now is not the America I started out in,” said McLean. “And it’s not the America that I was in before I started out … The America that I remember in the 1950s when I was growing up and was a young boy and teenager — that’s the America I knew and the value system I knew.”
He also pointed out, “So many people today make it sound like the America of the ‘50s was some horrible White racist country, and it’s disgusting the way [some] people have characterized our country. There was a wonderful civility [back then]; there was trust; doors were open; we had the number-one colleges in the world; and we were number one, for real.”
He added, “We won the Olympics — we didn’t send some dumb ‘Dream Team’ with professional athletes over to the Olympics. The Olympics were really the Olympics. Guys didn’t have multi-million contracts and trainers … [The athletes in the Olympics] were everyday Americans. That’s gone now.”
McLean said he feels America is a corrupt country today — and a very “divided” country as well.
