That's actually pretty funny, I did click on that warning on some voter fraud allegations and here is what it said: What you need to know - Voter fraud of any type is incredibly rare in the US, according to The Associated Pre

It also doesn't mean that we all have to refuse him the platform to be an asshole. Giving him the platform seems like exactly what Spotify wants to do, and since we all reached the consensus that private corporations are free to do wha

A person is not content. Alex Jones is not InfoWars podcast. I haven't listened to the podcast in question, because why would I, but if you think that it does violate these rules, you should prove it.
