I truly do believe that this situation affects all of us around the world and it will be impossible for us to be able to enjoy & maintain our ways of life if power hungry tyrants aren't put in check. I support this peaceful & beautiful movement 100% and I think it's so damn incredible how so many strangers, men, women, and children both vaccinated & unvaccinated alike can come together against the evil that's being forced upon us and stand up and stand firm for Our Rights and Our Freedoms, it's just such a beautiful thing to see and I think it shows that there's still hope for Humanity! Please do not believe all those dishonest media outlets out there who are trying their best to demonize these people and make them out to be something that they're not. Just see what's going on for yourself because these are very wonderful people and whether you realize it or not right now they are fighting for you too!

Stay well and be strong freedom convoy!

Yep it’s no wonder they want him censored. The government already watches every gd thing we are doing. They just got caught again spying on us. It’s been known by congress since Bush’s tenure and all they have done is give the spy agencies more power to do it. Remember when the most dangerous president in history was given more power by Pelosi? I do.

Heard from Margaret Kimberley

a little less today, as they march in lockstep with Neil Young. I might have expected the more radical seeming Crosby especially to be more resistant and less willing to follow the establishment on the virus, but what do I know anymore. I give Joni Mitchel a semi-break, being a fellow Canadian and also a polio victim, iirc, who might have a simplistic, too-trusting attitude about all vaccines being beneficial.

I am still waiting to see the major musical artists to counter Young and stand up for Rogan and free speech.

Do you really think it’s a coincidence that days after Neil Young’s music was pulled off of Spotify he debuts a 4-month free trial to any person who wants to sign up for Amazon music — who has struggled to gain market share and has long-standing connections with all of the big money people in the game?

Saagar Enjeti, Washington correspondent at The Hill, said there could be more going on behind the scenes. Investment firms who own the music catalogs — and who also have ties to pharmaceutical companies — may be calling the shots.

“The people speaking out may be doing so organically, but it also happens to coincide with the financial or oligarchic interests of some very, very rich people,” Enjeti said in a “Breaking Points” episode that took a “deep dive into the hedge funds behind the campaign by Neil Young and others to cancel Rogan and boost other music services such as Amazon music.”

Spotify.

“The original impetus for Neil Young’s demand was a letter he posted on social media saying Spotify could either have Neil Young or Joe Rogan, but that letter was almost immediately deleted after it was posted,” Enjeti said.

“Who is demanding this? Enjeti asked. “Is it Neil Young or is it the people who own his music?”

Enjeti explained:

“You see a recent trend in the music business it that iconic artists such a Neil Young sell their catalogs to big-money groups who then reap the profits in perpetuity. Young actually sold his catalog in Jan. 2021 to a company called Hipgnosis. Now Hipgnosis is a $1 billion company that recently announced an ownership agreement with Blackstone.”

Enjeti said Blackstone is focused on taking over single-family housing and turning America into a nation of renters, but it also has interests everywhere.

“Blackstone, BlackRock and these big private equity giants are ruthless in their pursuit of profits and they’re savvy political players who know how to play the game,” Enjeti said. “They have all sorts of ties to the pharmaceutical industry, including announcing the former CEO and chairman of Pfizer would be joining Blackstone as a senior advisor.”

“Do you really think it’s a coincidence that days after Neil Young’s music was pulled off of Spotify he debuts a 4-month free trial to any person who wants to sign up for Amazon music — who has struggled to gain market share and has long-standing connections with all of the big money people in the game?” Enjeti asked.

“Open your eyes to see possibilities you may not have imagined,” Enjeti said. “At first it was simple, just Neil Young taking a stand.”

You give into the mob, you give them an inch, they will keep coming. Will Spotify really be able to withstand up to the pressure? Who knows? Principles are not going to save you in this instance. Only money will.”

Enjeti said people better hold on to their seats and “hope that Joe prevails on this one,” as he is up against more powerful interests than many realize.

Looking at it through this lense makes it make sense. See article for which artist signed with what group. Hedge funds have always been vampires sucking out profits, but now they are getting much worse. They shouldn’t be allowed to suck profits out of hospitals because it’s been disastrous for us and yet…

@snoopydawg @snoopydawg but this piece suggests Crosby and Nash at least are actually backing Young. Crosby tweets that he would have done the same had he still owned his music and Nash has a long pro-Young/anti-Rogan message on his Twitter feed. https://www.newsweek.com/crosby-nash-young-again-join-voices-spotify-joe...

ETA: Stephen Stills also reprints the same joint message Nash has on his twitter feed. If either C, S or N are in disagreement with the decision to pull out of Spotify over Rogan, they would not be reprinting a joint message if that was produced by the corp owners of their music and did not represent their views, and of course they would be at liberty to signal such different pov on twitter or their websites, but this has not happened.

@wokkamile

Saagar's point could still be valid tho. Kneel was the one who started the exodus with his wanting Rogan to be censored because he had Malone on his show and he thinks Malone is full of crap and doesn’t know what he’s talking about. I’m curious if he even watched the show? If he didn’t then how could he make the decision that Malone was wrong? Or just maybe someone from Amazon whispered in his ear just so that when Kneel made that claim others would follow him? Giving people a discount if they get his music from Amazon is interesting. Does he not know how badly Amazon treats its workers? Does that not bother him? The guy who became famous for sticking it to the man sure seems like he’s now joining with the man. If any of that is true how would others know his real motive for removing his music behind this call for censorship?

I don’t know the answer to why he’s moving his music. Only he does. But I’m appalled that so many people are calling for censorship of anyone period. Especially those who once would have been against it based on what they did decades ago. It reminds me of this.

OT. Great news! Rachel Moscow is going off the air for a few months and hopefully with her absence from Russia Russia Russia I’ll get my uncle back from believing in all her hysterical propaganda. I can’t believe the crap that he’s saying about Russia and Putin. He’s actually behind Ukrainia getting admitted to NATO and supports Biden sending more troops east.

@wokkamile @wokkamile for us at OWS. It was a big thing. Joan Baez and Tom Morello also gave free performances which I was lucky enough to be in attendance for.

Morello---former guitarist for Rage Against The Machine---is now a guest columnist for the NY Times.

CSNY and Morello have changed.

today from GG on why the gov't (fed, state or local) violates the Constitution when it coerces/threatens/offers financial inducements to private entities into engaging in censorship on its behalf on social media platforms. The gov't cannot constitutionally do indirectly what it is forbidden to do directly. Excellent reference to have the next time you see a progressive on social media lament that nothing can be done about censorship there because it's a private corporation.

15 min less if you fast forward through the French presentation.

The leaders of 'Freedom Convoy 2022', a group of truck drivers and their supporters occupying downtown Ottawa, hold a news conference to address various issues surrounding their ongoing protest. The demonstration against COVID-19 vaccine mandates and restrictions has gripped the city since it began on January 28 on Parliament Hill.

I've had fun busying around and watching the live streams from the mandate protests. These folks are organized much better than I assumed.

@Lookout @Lookout @Lookout Two Tweets. Related?
You be the Judge.

Sarnia is a border crossing in Southeast Ontario. It is just across a narrow stretch of Lake Huron and connects Ontario with Michigan

This is the second border Blockade and this one features Farmers on their tractors.

For those keeping score---there has been some movement by Alberta Saskatchewan, Quebec, and now Ontario. All bordering the USA.

How much longer will the Convoy and Blockades continue? The joke going around is "Only 2 weeks to flatten the curve."

which I also posted in the EB tonight...

I think the border shutdowns have TPTB more nervous than the Capitol take over. More money at stake after all. Heard someone today saying the Coutts blockade (now opened to one lane) has costs millions...

This piece makes it plain TPTB ain't happy about it.
https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/second-highway-blockade-create...

A video capturing blockade participants voting on clearing those lanes indicated protesters were doing so with the understanding the Alberta government had agreed to end its vaccine passport system, known as the Restrictions Exemption Program (REP), with intentions to restart the blockade if this does not happen.

United Conservative Party caucus chair Nathan Neudorf said in a statement Wednesday no such agreement had been authorized. The party’s rural caucus did meet later that afternoon.
...
Neudorf did say Alberta would begin lifting COVID-19 restrictions “likely within days,” and starting with the REP. Premier Jason Kenney has said he will announce details on “the end of COVID restrictions” in the coming days.

Freedom convoy’s GoFundMe suspended following complaints from Ottawa government

As detailed by the Freedom Convoy’s GoFundMe page, the fundraiser is currently paused and under review to 'ensure it complies with our terms of service and applicable laws and regulations.'

GoFundMe has frozen the campaign of the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa, after it raised over $10,000,000 Canadian dollars following demands from Ottawa city officials for the crowd-funding platform to seize their funds and redirect them to the city to pay for the costs of policing and PR, in what can literally be described as fascism.

As detailed by the Freedom Convoy’s GoFundMe page, the fundraiser is currently paused and under review to “ensure it complies with our terms of service and applicable laws and regulations.”

“Our team is working 24/7 and doing all we can to protect both organizers and donors. Thank you for your patience,” the page reads.
...
The effort to shut down and potentially redirect the funds from the Freedom Convoy to Ottawa government coffers comes hours after Ottawa City council member Diane Deans demanded that GoFundMe cut off the “pipeline of funding” from the convoy, threatening legal action. Deans described the truckers as “mercenaries.”

Days prior, Ottawa City councilor Mathieu Fleury sent emails to the city to launch legal proceedings against GoFundMe to stop the campaign.

Urgent! Stop FDA Approval of Pfizer Shots for Kids 6 Months to 4 Years

The clinical trial failed in this age group. We have 14 days to stop the U.S. Food and Drug Administration from committing a crime against humanity.

This announcement came out Jan. 31 and it is so horrifying. It took me several minutes to come to grips with what is happening. I know the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is evil but this takes things to another level.

Pfizer wants its disastrous mRNA shot added to the official schedule for children so that the vaccine maker can have liability protection forever.

The Pfizer mRNA shot in children 2 to 4 years old failed in the clinical trial. But, acting FDA Commissioner Dr. Janet Woodcock, likely following orders from the Biden administration, asked Pfizer to submit an application anyway.

So on Feb. 1, Pfizer submitted an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) application for children 6 months to 4 years old.

Pfizer and the FDA are proposing to start with two shots in this age group even though that approach has already failed and then they will add a third dose later in the spring if data comes in that supports that use.

The plan is literally — shoot up kids first, get the data later.

In the use of private companies, the left has achieved an ignoble distinction. While liberal writers and artists were blacklisted and investigated in the 1950s, liberal activists have succeeded in censoring opposing views to a degree that would have made Sen. Joe McCarthy (R-Wis.) blush. Rather than burn books, they have simply gotten stores to ban them or blacklist the authors.

I find that I agree with him most of the time and have for some years. Decades I suppose. On a side note I read that Tucker Carlson is beating Rachel Moscow in the ratings and that more and more democrats are flocking to his show. Now that’s funny! Hmmm maybe that’s why Rachel is going on hiatus for a few months? Smile
