03/13/24: Ask 100 people in 2024, "Who is Neil Young?"

95 won't know. 3 will tell you that it's a brand name for hemorrhoid suppositories. And the other two will call you a Substack Nazi.

Thus the esteemed and revered legacy of the 1960's: Hippy fascists.

03/14/24: Agreed (emphatically). And to think that at one time, people such as Mr Get-Off-My-Substack-Lawn! were objects of veneration, the epitomy of "cool," influential. In sharp contrast to the crooks, we simply assumed that they were morally upright. (HA!)

Great term: Hippie fascists. Dictatorial, grumpy, and grossly misinformed and uneducated when it comes to rational, thoughtful discourse. It’s all about their emotions and has nothing to do with reality. Kind of nice to see them fall flat on their face. And slink back.
