Don't forget this, anons... WE are the new counter-culture.
I meet occasionally with some older hippies to play music at a local venue. I am the sole conservative in the group and they know it. All of them are bound to the old 70s style leftist politics. I am on board the Q train, although I keep that to myself, but still they know me as a conservative. In their eyes, I'm a "reactionary" and part of the establishment... language of the last century. They can't help it, they're stuck in the last century.
The first time we met after all the stupid covid shutdowns, one of them jokingly said to me, "Hey there, you old reactionary, how have you been doing?"
I was very tempted to say, "Well, I'm unvaccinated so I'm feeling GREAT!" But I didn't. I just said, "We 'reactionaries' are the new counter-culture."
That gave him pause...but we both laughed over it. If he weren't the best blues player around, and if the others weren't so musically talented, I'd look for other people to play with, but it is what it is.
Oh I plant those seeds, alright. I was the only one in the group who refused to get jabbed and boosted, and at first they hated me for it. Now they seem to be understanding that I was right and they were... well, they won't admit being WRONG, but they certainly are questioning their decisions made back then.
I don't know WHAT my associates call me behind my back, but they never say it to my face. In addition to being a conservative, they know I'm capable of defending myself, both verbally and physically.
Since its conception, really. I bet there's a fun rabbit hole seeing if Rolling Stone had the same CIA backers as the "counter culture" Laurel Canyon crowd turned out to have.
I'm so astounded and glad that being in Laurel Cyn did not warp me. I observed that the "hippies" were the most prejudiced and stuck up people I had ever known. That was before the concept of "libtards" became something real to me. Now I know what the hell was (and is) wrong with some of the people I have known. It was so vague... made me uneasy. Boy now they are recognized as fucktards with hardening of the brain! I am grateful for the instincts I have. The one that makes me rebel so strongly against manipulation.
And before that they housed journalists who loved looking down their noses at non-authorized musical talents that were getting popular. Oh, how they loved to trash Rush for so long, both for their musical adventurism and their non comforist conceptual themes.

It's not meant as an insult to me..
RS has been liberal fish-wrap for at least the last 15-20 years....

Never forget, they featured the Boston Bomber as a cover model. So chic!....
Man, the hits just keep rolling…has this song triggered these people or what?
They are bought and paid for-told what to say or they are finished.
I knew I liked Winston Marshall! 😆
