How does paying a pile of money to get that podcast on their platform count as "percieved endorsement"? They literally gave him money to express his views.

- zozbot234 5y agoSpotify literally gives artists money to stream their music. Some people will definitely perceive this as an overt endorsement of whatever viewpoints and values might be expressed in that rather broad variety of music; other might not.
- baskethead 5y agoLots of singers and artists on Spotify are openly misogynistic and celebrate crimes. Are you suggesting that in the case of those artists Spotify doesn’t endorse those views, but in the specific case of Joe Rogan, they endorse his views? Or should those artists with those vile views also be kicked off Spotify?
- zozbot234 5y agoWe don't even need to go there. Spotify likely includes a lot of religious music from all sorts of religions and denominations. Does this means that anyone who would reject the values and viewpoints of any single one of these religions (many of which contradict one another, which makes such rejection almost certain to occur) should quit Spotify?
