Joe Rogan-Neil Young Spotify feud – who's rockin' in the free world now?

What if Neil Young had been canceled for expressing his anti-war views during Vietnam?

I never thought I’d live in a world where legendary left-wing musicians like Neil Young and Joni Mitchell are happily carrying water for "the man" on an important public policy issue. But that’s the crazy situation we find ourselves in as our country navigates through the coronavirus pandemic that’s cost nearly 900,000 Americans their lives.

The debate over COVID-19, its origins, lockdowns, masks, school closings and the effectiveness of vaccines has been raging for nearly two years and podcast sensation Joe Rogan has garnered a lot of attention for his outspoken anti-establishment views on the matter.

Rogan’s decision to present both sides of the issue by questioning vaccines, vaccine protocols, and what age groups ought to get vaccinated has drawn the ire of powerful interests who seek to divide America into a segregated society of those who are vaccinated and those who are not.

Anti-Rogan Neil Young’s past quote:

At the height of the AIDS frenzy, during an interview with Melodie Baker in 1985, Young made this offensive comment, “You go to a supermarket and you see a f—-t behind the f—in’ cash register, you don’t want him to handle your potatoes.”

They've always carried water for "the man," the man being the global Marxist cabal that wants to destroy individual freedom.

There is no “feud”.
You don't feud with irrelevant, long past it have beens that nobody cares about.

I wish Joe Rogan would invite Neil Young on his show and hash it out. If he has a problem with the show spell it out. If he won’t, his demands hold no water.

If Joe Rogan is very lucky, Woke fools at Spotify will get nervous and cancel his contract, whereby he still collects the money they owe him, and then he’s free to sign again elsewhere.

The hippies were always fascist commies.

They used freedom as a weapon, not an ideal.

Writer can’t figure out why the ‘artists’ don’t understand the arc of history.

They are akin to idiot savants, that’s why. They are distinctly talented at certain things and complete dunces about most everything else.

Don’t forget all the agent orange and lead put into the environment, Neil, that you supported!

Young has always hated America, especially freedom loving rugged individualists.

… There’s masks on the street
Every color and hue
People hidin’ under sheets
People livin’ under rules
But there’s a warnin’ sign on the road ahead
If we don’t wake up, the republic is dead
Don’t feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I live my life every way I can

… Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world

… I see a man in white
With a pink slip in his hand
There’s a sign on his right
Out of Business, man
Now he’s out of a job and his world’s gone to shit
Dr Fauci says just get over it
There’s one more family being taken as fools
From American dream to fascist rule

… Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world

… You better stand and fight
For your freedom man
We gotta stand up, fight back against this plan
We got empty shelves and inflation rates
Got 5 dollar gas got vaccine mandates
Got a senile man spreading fear and gloom
Got to save the republic, gotta stop this doom

… Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world
Keep on rockin’ in the free world

Young wants to silence Rogan for sharing views Young considers controversial.

Young doesn’t silence himself for sharing controversial views.

Is this hypocrisy hard to see?

Perhaps young doesn’t feel his views are controversial.
