Bigotry and ignorance, in the age of the internet, has a way of catching up with you. And Clapton’s racism and conspiracy theories can no longer be ignored.
Eric Clapton's Covid vaccine conspiracies mark a sad final act
by Anonymous | reply 42 | October 19, 2021 7:15 PM |
Clapton hasn’t just been spouting Covid vaccine misinformation over the past year — in interviews, in his inarguably terrible Covid protest single, and in his arguably even more awful collaboration with Van Morrison — he’s also been helping to bankroll the fringe, U.K.-based group of anti-vaxx musicians Jam for Freedom.

Clapton's racist rant from 1976.
Oh, it's pretty bad
by Anonymous | reply 2 | October 15, 2021 8:02 PM |
Clapton asked "foreigners" at a 1976 show to raise their hands before suggesting they "should all leave."
"Not just leave the hall, leave our country... I don't want you here, in the room or in my country," he said in part.
"The Black w—s and c—s and Arabs and f—ing Jamaicans don't belong here, we don't want them here," Clapton added on stage then, using blatant racist slurs. "This is England, this is a white country, we don't want any Black w—s and c—s living here. We need to make clear to them they are not welcome."
The rant went on as he called England "a white country" made "for white people."

R2 Shocking. Sinful!
I am personally offended!
How dare this person (who I've never met) do this to me!
I am disgusted.

Dr. Peter McCullough has offended me personally. Therefore he must die!

McCullough is a cardiologist, not a viral epidemiologist. He supports hydroxychloroquine treatment despite It being debunked. He was fired from his hospital and is being sued by it.

Btw, the R5 link is to address at an insane right wing medical association conference whose journal has claimed, among things, that homosexuality reduces lifespan by 20 years. So, yeah, R5, can die in a grease fire.

I remember going into Tower Tokyo and seeing his name card spelled "Eric Crapton". I always referred to him like that after and little did I know how fitting it was.

r5, my nephew's unvaxxed best friend since grade school just died from covid. He was 37 and left a wife with huge medical bills and 3 young kids. Too bad he didn't opt for the free vaccine.

I just don’t understand why some of these older artists feel the need to do anything but play music. No one cares anymore about their extreme opinions, endless band feuds, etc . I feel like many from the boomer generation of artists will keep performing until they wheel them out on gurneys. I feel like many of them are like Madonna and think they can remain in their 30s through sheer will power.

r5's Dr. Peter McCullough is a quack who is associated with the far-right John Birch Society, has appeared on Tucker's show and Laura Ingraham's podcast, and falsely claimed to be associated with Baylor, who is now suing him. They got a restraining order on him a few weeks ago.

He received a CBE from the Queen for his racism and annoying music.
He also stole George Harrison's wife, Pattie Boyd, and beat her during their marriage.
