I'll Play devils Advocate for a moment

NO ONE Has a RIGHT to Any Businesses Media Platform, ... not Rogan, Not Morning Joe, Not Al Sharpton

You have a Right to Speak your Mind in the Public Square ...

What you can do is make a Business Agreement to Provide Content for Compensation ....

What is well known is Authoritarians want is to control the narrative and what a person can say .... Democrats / Progressives have been doing this since Rush made Talk Radio a way to get around the State Run Media starting in the Clinton Years

India Arie Pulling Her Music From Spotify Over Joe Rogan’s Comments On Race

Arie went on to explain how she was offended by the way Rogan spoke about race during the episode he hosted with guest Dr. Jordan Peterson. She also alluded to being indignant at the pay structure for musical artists versus podcast creators.

“What I am talking about is RESPECT. Who gets it and who doesn’t,” the “Magic” singer continued. “Paying musicians a fraction of a penny and [Rogan] $100M? This shows the type of company they are and the company that they keep. I’m tired.”

Rogan brought up race in an episode of his podcast last week. The JRE host said it was strange to call someone black or white based on skin tone, especially with a “spectrum of shades of people.”

“Unless you’re talking to someone who is like 100% African, from the darkest place, where they’re not wearing any clothes all day, and they’ve developed all that melanin to protect themselves from the sun, you know, even the term ‘Black’ is weird,” Rogan said on the podcast.

“The liberal activist group MoveOn (remember them? Google: ‘Clinton impeachment, 1998’) is circulating a petition to demand Rogan be booted. Yes, its real goal is just to collect emails for fundraising scams, but it shows the ethos of liberal culture,” Greenwald continued.

“What is Rogan accused of that corporate media doesn’t do routinely and far more harmfully?” Greenwald asked, noting that mainstream outlets often functioned as echo chambers and rarely admitted it when they were wrong. “Those outlets are dissent-free zones. To work at a large media corporation means rarely talking to anyone who tells you you’re wrong. Rogan constantly airs dissent and acknowledges error.”

‘Dissent-Free Zones’: Glenn Greenwald Says Mainstream Media Spreads More Misinformation Than Rogan — And They Apologize Less

Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald defended podcast host Joe Rogan in a lengthy Twitter thread on Tuesday, saying that mainstream media outlets were far more likely than Rogan to spread “misinformation” — and far less likely to admit fault or apologize when they did so. “The way so many smug...

Shadowy far-left groups are behind the effort to silence Joe Rogan


Key additional players in disseminating the petition are supposed “experts” in the form of a “Dr” Katrine Wallace and a college student and TikToker named Abbie Richards.

Katrine Wallace, despite not being a medical doctor, goes by “Dr Kat.” Rolling Stone, in its continuation of the campaign to silence Rogan, was happy to accommodate her request, violating AP journalistic standards in referring to Wallace as “Dr Katrine Wallace.”

Far from being a communicator of complete scientific truths, Wallace has spread plenty of her own misinformation on mRNA vaccines. She has claimed that individuals have a 90% decreased risk of infection from the shots. She has also suggested that COVID injections prevents the infection entirely. We now know neither claim is remotely true.

[clip]

Rolling Stone describes fellow campaigner Abbie Richards as a “a misinformation researcher who helped organize the efforts to write the letter.” However, they did not bother to mention that Richards is a consultant with Media Matters, a notorious far-left dark money-funded outfit that operates solely to attempt to silence their political opposition.

Richards has previously participated in a Media Matters campaign to cancel Tucker Carlson, who she has labeled a “white supremacist.”

I don't know anything about Spotify or these unknown to me ass-wipes quitting it, but if they are an example of what is on Spotify I don't care to learn about it either.
Now if someone like Ricky Skaggs quit it I might want to know why.

Considering Spotify doesn’t make much on the music portion of their service, a year or two from now when all these asshats want their music back on the service to make money, they need to double charge the douche bags to put them back.

First, who?

Second, she probably heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend, who heard it from another that Joe Rogan said something.

Third, a white guy said something about the whole concept of any old body being called black is strange, but what that ho-bag heard was "Joe Rogan said something about blacks" and jumped up on her high horse.

Evidently, those who shout "racist" in cry wolf fashion are finding it yielding diminishing results - for good reason. When you call everything under the sun racist, when you accuse people of being BORN racist (and in some cases, unable to ever change that) - it loses its sting.

So the NEW term is "white supremacist". Seriously, just a few short years ago - did you hear ANYONE claiming it was a problem?

It is NOT "another" term for racial bigotry. White supremacist is clearly more than that. But while I have met bigots of all stripes, on all sides and occasionally - bigotry against groups I didn't even know people were prejudiced AGAINST - I have never ever met anyone I'd consider a "white supremacist".
