Springsteen and the entertainment industry, Hollywood, et al are the status quo. They are not anything resembling counter culture. They never have been.
The issue I have is that no one on the left has any answers to the problems that plague this nation. There are no leaders, no "Kennedy Democrats" as my parents would say. Instead, it's a constant barrage of criticism, fueled by a liberal media, most of which is unfounded and not true. If you use the word "fascist" in any context with this administration, you do not know the meaning of the word and are merely chirping media talking points. As far as I can see, the three branches are keeping each other in check, and if Executive Branch attempts anything illegal, the other branches will step in. If anyone on the left has legitimate, actionable plans to make this country better, I will listen. Until then, I'll take what we have. It's far better than the alternative.
Well said, Jeff. Someone just said to me “Be careful.. they might be coming after you.” Silence is what happened in 1930’s Germany . I will not be silenced… no one should, especially people with a platform. And.. that’s you. Courage, my friend.
he’s calling them out. justice for the poor, the working class, the old and the under privileged has always been Bruce’s Mantra. I’ve been witnessing it since my first shows in the mid 70’s.
Spot on commentary. That the leader of our nation has the demeanor of a petulant middle school girl is a sad commentary on the state of affairs today. Those in public office must be constantly reminded that we are not here to serve them, they are elected to serve us. This country was founded on the very principles that are now trying to be censored. Our founding fathers would be aghast at the idea that fealty should be considered patriotism.
In a word -- Testify. Resist. Resolve. Okay, that's three words, but speaking truth to power has perhaps never been as important in our relative lifetimes than it is right now. Bruce, along with Neil Young, are the tipping points of expressing their won't-back-down valor. Who's next?
On "Truth to Power"

Thank you, again, for the kind of journalism we need, we miss, and I gladly pay for.
Bruce is a multimillionaire; he’s lost whatever contact he had with us schlups. Give away all your money, “dude.” Ha.
