Pulling bc sheโs a fricking boomer and boomers are the worst most self absorbed selfish generation. They took religion out of family and now they're scared to die so instead of sacrificing anything like their own freedom to stay inside where they definitely wont get covid they expect their children to sacrifice for them yet again.

The thing I hate most about the reddit free speech convo is them just boiling it down to just meaning the first amendment like the world is only America. Like it can't be an ideal it only exists as the government not punishing you for speech. Like them mass censoring and taking over all platforms and most media isn't anti free speech. Like their new trend of everything they don't like being dangerous misinformation that must be muzzled for the greater good isn't inherently against the idea and values of open discourse and not just them monopolizing the spread of information.
As a huge Neil Young fan it is kind of disappointing but he has become basically mainstream reddit lib in his old age he was into the .

Do these old butt people think they still have clout? Who gives a shit lol. Definitely not the companies who are in it for the money.
Joni Mitchell has around 3 million monthly listeners, Neil Young has around 6 million. Joe Rogan gets 11 million listeners per episode.
Spotify is not letting go of their golden goose no matter how many crusty old has-beens whine about it.

This is partially, or at least one of the reasons why society shouldn't let children and morons to have access to the internet.
Joni Mitchell has way more talent in her little pinky fingernail than that little hairless short guy has ever had or will ever have in his entire existence.

Like Neil Young, she was popular in the 60s and 70s. These old fricks are way overplaying the nostalgia card. Unless your The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Nirvana, or maybe Lynyrd Skynyrd, you need to have had a couple hits in the last 40 years for Spotify to give even a smidgeon of a frick about you.

Soundcloud rap is dead, itโs just hip pop now. Drake, Future, Carti, etc

Drake is a boomer now and Future hasn't been relevant in like 5 years
Zoomer rap artists and producers solely aim for a 5-10 second clip that will go viral on TikTok. That's what rap music has become. Kanye and friends are just the echoes of an ending era.

All beep boop music is the same. Back in my day (1972) we didn't have demonic electronicals in our music. We played using real instruments in front of a live audience, no autotune at all.

She's riding on the fact that one of her songs has seen a bit of a resurgence - and has had some radio time for the first time since the dinosaurs walked the earth - due to it being featured in a Netflix series recently.
