The timing is suspect given the profile of the disease has diminished and continues to fade.
I wouldn't be surprised if a gruntled woke faction inside Spotify is trying to get out of the Rogan contract and that's what this is all about. Lust for money and power over the past two years explain all the headscratchers like this for me.
- coolso 5y agoYou make a good point; another possibility is the COVID clingers all see the end on the horizon and are grasping at straws trying to take advantage of one last opportunity to admonish/control people.
- sharken 5y agoThanks for the term "COVID clingers", it gets the message across.
- EdSharkey 5y agoThis is an aggressive take. I don't entirely disagree, but it gives people the emotional fuel to dismiss our opinions as cracked. I prefer using mundane "greed" to explain the utter fuckery and torture the last 2 years have been. The past 5 years have seen constant, back-to-back gaslightings. And, I am surrounded by people who think it's all normal. A busybody at my place of business revels in dangerously libeling unvaccinated people as "plague bearers". The world is so filled with comfortable useful idiots like that who have NO IDEA how much ego death (or worse) awaits them when/if they find out they were duped.
- josephcsible 5y agoI feel like greed is the wrong term for the COVID clingers, since it basically means addiction to money in particular, but the COVID clingers are addicted to power.
- EdSharkey 5y agoYes, beyond a certain digital bux account value, more money ceases to be a useful goal.
