He gave them an ultimatum and told them they can&#8217;t have both. So\u2026 what is the deal here? In short, Neil Young is an idiot. The way he is handling this is dumb, his cause is dumb, and from a business standpoint, he is a moron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"529\" height=\"431\" src=\"https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-6.jpg 529w, https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-6-300x244.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/><figcaption>Neil Young<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s actually unfortunate because Neil Young has some good music. The arrogant man thought he had the clout to get a company to part the red seas for him. This is a pretty standard idiot move. Neil Young later stated, \u201cThank you Warner Brothers for standing with me and taking the hit \u2013 losing 60% of my worldwide streaming income in the name of Truth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OK, so he feels like he is protesting and making an impact in the world. (Its Not)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s check into this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What does he think he is doing? Neil Young thinks he is protesting the spread of Covid-19 misinformation on Joe Rogan\u2019s podcast. So he thinks Joe Rogan and his guests are spreading lies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s just say, for argument sake Neil Young is right\u2026 Well, if he is right, he is a little late to the party. He should have been protesting back in 2021. The COVID pandemic is just about over. The new strains of the virus are watered down. The virus is not as deadly as it once was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-american-review-org\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"oaDJ24YpHK\"><a href=\"https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/2022\/01\/02\/omicron-could-be-the-end-of-covid\/\">Omicron could be the end of COVID pandemic regulations<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;Omicron could be the end of COVID pandemic regulations&#8221; &#8212; American-Review.org\" src=\"https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/2022\/01\/02\/omicron-could-be-the-end-of-covid\/embed\/#?secret=GnZdXeTbrO#?secret=oaDJ24YpHK\" data-secret=\"oaDJ24YpHK\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The next question is, what specifically is misinformation? Neil says, \u201cI am doing this because Spotify is spreading fake information about vaccines \u2013 potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation being spread by them,\u201d This is pretty vague, and Neil fails to give a point-blank example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To sum this up, the WHO, Neil Young, and mainstream media are coming after Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan has one of the most popular podcasts globally, and mainstream media numbers can&#8217;t keep up. Joe Rogan has a variety of industry experts and entertaining guests. Listeners can gain a wide variety of information from the show, and this may be scaring entities who want to control the narrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/joe.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1713\" width=\"194\" height=\"136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/joe.jpg 388w, https:\/\/american-review.org\/sentiment\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/joe-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 194px) 100vw, 194px\" \/><figcaption>Joe Rogan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>This is potentially the misinformation Neil Young is referring to: <\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CZaUkJqrXEo\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
