ERIC CLAPTON FEELS ‘OSTRACIZED’ BY FRIENDS OVER HIS COVID VIEWS
UltimateClassicRock ^ | June 14, 2021 | Corey Irwin

Eric Clapton has revealed that his polarizing views on the coronavirus pandemic have strained his personal relationships.

“I’ve tried to reach out to fellow musicians,” the famed guitarist explained during an interview with YouTube channel Oracle Films. “I just don’t hear from them anymore. My phone doesn’t ring very often. I don’t get that many texts and emails any more. It’s quite noticeable.”

Clapton vocally challenged the U.K.’s COVID-related lockdown laws, even going so far as to release a single alongside Van Morrison condemning his government’s actions.

One day you are on the top of the world, the next day they find out you are a conservative.

Consider yourself lucky.
This is a rather inexpensive lesson in who your friends really are.

“Mister Eric had a very bad reaction to the 2nd jab”

Didn’t know that but celebrities should think twice before they talk politics and turn attention away from what they are truly good at.

Clapton can come over and jam with me any time.
No talking, just jamming.

I would jam with Roger Waters too if he would just shutup.
He’s a real jerk.

Artist just need to artist.

Mister Eric had a very bad reaction to the 2nd jab.

Yes, a bad reaction to the first, and a very bad reaction to the second. He though he had been lied to about the safety of the vaccinations.

By the way, it's "Sir Eric," not "mister."

BTW,the tip was average.

I've heard him say he didn't have any real money until he made the unplugged album.

So he’ll write another sad song to get it out of his system and caching the royalties check will make him happy again.

Thursday Sept. 23 for us.

I’ve got tix.

I’d love to see Van Morrison one more time. Saw him about 15 years ago, he was great.

I’d love to be able to see his show.

He'll be playing in Fort Worth in September. I'll probably be attending solo, as I did for his Crossroads Guitar Festival in 9/2019. Best concert I ever attended.

I feel for you a bit Eric

But as somebody who has stood by his self for three decades now and called the vaccine industry totally completely evil ! right to peoples faces and taking a bunch of bullets for it I’m not that sympathetic

I can only hope that people will finally wake up to how evil and horrible the vaccine industry is with this event that’s going on right now in this giant hoax that they’ve caused to create the demand for their depopulation shots

I’m here going to re-post two wonderful websites written by incredible caring parents who have made it their life’s work to warn other parents about vaccinating their children after their own children were damaged in front of their eyes

http://vaxtruth.org/

https://vactruth.com/

Jesus Christ is very much on our side in this great battle of Gog versus Magog

The evil side of Satan wants to inject you with poison and kill you

Or at least make you infertile - And control you as a communist subject

Why do you think these horrible evil people go to all links to try to destroy truth tellers?

Please read through these very good and detailed websites as you will learn much much more than you ever have before

The fact that when a poor parent has their kid damaged by the vaccines that they’re silenced is the ultimate evil of this industry

This is been going on nearly 2 centuries now but in four force since the 50s
