Eric Clapton has long been an outspoken critic against covid mandates and lockdowns, but the legendary rocker wants to make one thing clear: He’s not an anti-vaxxer.
Clapton said, “I’m making a rod for my own back by talking about the thing and the things, but one thing about the thing I would like to make clear — because I have to keep reestablishing it — is I’m neither anti or pro. I’m for freedom of choice, really, and respect for other people, and kindness, and the things that used to motivate, or were things to aspire to. So aspirations towards goodness. And I’m also quite, in an abstract way, religion — I believe in God and I think there’s a purpose. And this seems to be my purpose for the moment.”
Clapton also called his critics "monsters," and has added he has a new song coming in the next month with plans to record an album this year.
