There’s a difference between promoting a false narrative during a global health crisis vs stating unpopular political views, Soviet censorship or blaming a politician for committing a racist act during college. Platforms such as social media or Spotify feature news or opinion pieces that provide the same service as traditional journalism where it’s a common practice to fact check. There are clear facts about the efficacy of vaccines and about Covid. Neil Young, like many of us, might have had friends or family members who had Covid. I believe that he was expressing an act of frustration rather than one of cancellation.
