In which case the people who disagree with JRE can... simply stop paying for Spotify.
But that's not enough. In their ideal world, I would be not allowed to pay for "misinformation" because their position wouldn't be limited to Spotify. Spotify is really just a pointless implementation detail.
That's absolutely a fascist attitude. They actually think they and their club know better than everyone else, and their best argument is apparently along the lines of "well you're not a doctor either".
- petee 5y agoI guess the counter argument is, I had Spotify before Joe Rogan was there, I have every right to ask Spotify to get rid of him before I cancel. You are more than welcome to pay for misinformation anywhere else, on someone else's platform, or even start your own, but I'd prefer you do it not in my music app please.
- ravenstine 5y agoNo, that's not the counter argument, because no one is saying that you have no right to ask Spotify to cancel Joe Rogan. People disagree with your position because it's counter to their interests. A group of people is advocating for the removal of voluntarily accessible material because they believe they know better, and many would beg to differ because, guess, what, nobody is infallible or can know everything. > or even start your own [platform], but I'd prefer you do it not in my music app please. That's fine, but that doesn't mean people can't find this philosophy insufferable. If they find it insufferable, that doesn't mean they believe you have no right to be insufferable. They just don't want you to succeed.
