Veteran Rocker Neil Young has publicly denounced what he calls the “fascist Trump regime,” accusing major corporations of financially supporting it.

In a strongly worded essay posted on his Neil Young Archives website on January 29, Young singled out Verizon, T-Mobile, and Apple, arguing that consumer money funneled to these companies ultimately helps sustain an administration he fundamentally opposes.

Targeting Telecom Giants and Corporate Influence

Young first took aim at Verizon, saying he is considering dropping the service entirely because his subscription fees contribute to corporate donations he finds harmful.

His search for alternatives briefly led him to T-Mobile, but he rejected the company after discovering what he described as unexplained increases in its financial contributions tied to Trump-related interests. “So T-Mobile is apparently out,” Young concluded, underscoring his belief that everyday consumer choices carry political consequences.

Apple, ICE, and a Broader Boycott

Young’s criticism extended to Apple and CEO Tim Cook, whom he accused of showing public support for the Trump administration.

He threatened to avoid Apple upgrades and even consider legal action if forced into costly changes.

His renewed activism was further fueled by recent ICE-related shootings in Minnesota, prompting him to cancel ties with companies he believes enable violence and injustice.

Young also revealed he is reassessing his relationship with Warner, vowing to keep fans informed as he continues to align his music and finances with his political convictions.
