When I initially heard about Neil Young's demand, my knee-jerk response was how the mighty have fallen. However, it wasn't very long before I was reminded that Neil Young has always been a scumbag. His song Southern Man was an attack on the culture and values of what we now associate with rural Trump supporters. Back then, Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote Sweet home Alabama in response, which was essentially the same invitation that most Trump supporters would offer to Neil Young today. Why don't you come say that to my face, you pathetic little hippie p$&&y?
I wonder if the people trying to cancel Joe Rogan have actually ever listened to one of his podcasts. I find him very personable and he asks questions that regular people (if they still have a brain) would ask.
I totally agree, great article.My first thought the other day when the Neil Young story came out and threatened Spotify:Who gives a flying Fellini about you Neil Young.I can say this because I have never given a fig about celebrities or what they have to say.
Van had a masterpiece called the Great Deception. from Hard Nose the Highway-did not perform it in concert cause it offended the audience. The plastic reveloutionaries take the money and run! Looks like a few actors sold out
One of the first things I learned or rather realized once the fauxvid scamdemic began, is that the celebrities and Holywood are just a service for the elites, a modern day bread and circus to keep the masses preoccupied and asleep. The same goes for professional sports and the musical arts as well.

When the Howard Stern comments became "news", my first reaction was -- he's still alive?
In California, which does lead the nation in absurdity as you well point out, Covid-infected healthcare workers were ordered back to work : if they were fully vaccinated. Meanwhile, the healthcare workers Cal forced out -- many of whom had recovered from Covid and had natural immunity -- are still out. So if you are sick with Covid but fully vaxxed, come to the hospital to work with people who might be at high risk. If you are not sick with Covid but not "fully vaxxed", you stay unemployed. I almost admire how they are not pretending to make sense anymore. Because it hurts your head just trying to think about what they're doing and why, you want to stop thinking about it.
Very good as usual and I was a huge Neil fan back in the day. Linking your take on Neil with a couple of other good ones, today, @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/
Neil Young was the opening shot of the Spotify battle. As soon as it was announced, if not earlier, every corporate media hack has been calling representatives of musicians trying to bully, shame and blackmail them into doing the same.
If they fail to grow this attack, especially with younger, bigger superstars, that's a huge whitepill. Because you know these fiends are aggressively trying.
About Neil Young, Dave McGowan noticed that Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young was obviously a CIA psyop rather than an actual band. They were pretty poor musicians who mostly couldn't play their instruments and they all arrived in Laurel Canyon at about the same time, somehow managing to get houses in a place where prices were so high that no budding musician could have managed to pay the rent on even a tiny apartment, if there were indeed any tiny apartments to be had, which there weren't. People who lived in Laurel Canyon lived in houses that were out of reach for unknown nobodies like CSN&Y.
Read Dave's interesting book about the Laurel Canyon scene:
None of them had to hide from the draft. None of them wrote any actual anti-war songs or participated in any antiwar activities. They were a fake band granted (for no apparent reason) contracts with the biggest record companies in the world. So, Neil Young still thinks that his phony celebrity status, granted to him by the intelligence community in the late '60s/ early '70s, is actually real.
Update: Not sure how I forgot the Ian Brown song 'little seed, big tree'.
Some lyrics...
Masonic lockdown in your hometown
Masonic lockdown, can you feel me now?
Masonic lockdown, soul shot down
State shakedown, a mass breakdown
Put your muzzle on, get back in your basket
Get behind your doors 'cause living here is drastic
Doctor Evil and his needle
Doctor Evil with a masterplan
A forced vaccine, like a bad dream
They'll plant a microchip, every woman, child and man
They plan to chip us all to have complete control
The land, the sky, your soul
The song is here: https://youtu.be/gOHn6KurHE0

Kudos to Van Morrison and Eric Clapton. They ain't drinking the kool aid.

Since when did Howard Stern turn into Howard Hughes?
