You'll never get old and say crazy shit, right?

I'm getting old (not as old as Young, but not prime any more), and I really hope I will never be the one parroting state-sponsored propaganda. I say lots of stupid shit, but not the stupid shit the politicians, medical complex, and MIC tell me to say.

Young made a persona out of being a "rebel", and he is now shown not to be a critical thinker, but just a whiny follower. As long as those in power speak to him the way he finds comforting, he's willing to enforce their slavery on whomever they point him at. Some rebel. Right. His legacy is being destroyed because he's not who he claimed to be.

Most people do and drool down their chins — and all the drugs didn't help him either since he is what seventy-five? Except in my case, the drugs helped. That is, I know that Fraudchi is a liar and murderer. 🤪 All I'm saying is, we shouldn't waste time hating old Neil when we could target those creating the world mess we have right now. It is a zionist media diversion. Neil tried to make it better but he got old. Cheers.

I've been as much of a Neil Young fan as anyone else, all my life, but his failure here is not just getting old. He's been duped or something like it, or he's a fool. Being a fan of the old Neil, who sang This Note's for You, Love and Only Love (and the bigger project that was from), and a whole anti-war album inspired by Bush (Bush and only Bush maybe in this new light), who sang about freedom so much, being a fan of that requires to also ask "yeah, Neil, 'why do you keep fucking up'?"

The anger and mocking directed at Neil is about more than just him, and it is empty. Spotify moved quickly to satisfy a disgruntled artist, and Hannah Gadsby is probably glad she stopped short of a similar ultimatum with Netflix. People who have seen the forces of censorship rack up wins and points are allowed a little schadenfreude and I hope Neil Young will remember that he's wrong if he thinks his jabs mean he won't need no doctor while he eats some Humble Pie. Maybe if he does, we can all Walk, together, on Gilded Splinters to that Mansion on the Hill where Peace and Love, they, live there still.

Neil Young had a son with cerebral palsy. I wonder if he realizes the vaccines he got the kid caused it and is now mad at the world so wants it to happen to other people, injuries from a vaccine.

I don't think David Crosby liked him very much.

Yet another element is becoming clear in the past two years. The boomers being portrayed as "social rebels" was never entirely accurate.

What the sixties/seventies generation were after was sex, drugs, and rock n roll. In truth, that makes for a pathetic "rebellion" and for pathetic people coming out the other side. Just like all movements, this one didn't include the entire cohort. There were many in the generation who lived normal lives and went on about business as have people for centuries. But the individuals who were most identified with "rebelling" for sex, drugs, and rock n roll are now being shown for what they really are. They are weak, not politically rebellious in the least in a genuine sense, and whiny.

Young and those like him have been duped by the clearest propaganda campaign that has been witnessed in decades. They fell right into it, are wallowing in the generated fear, and passing on that fear each according to his audience. It's super depressing to watch them be manipulated into the groveling state-followers that they are.
