They do have a huge pile of money to throw at rogan and pay the ceo… all while Spotify not making a profit but paying artists a decent rate.?nope.. to expensive for some nonesense. We need to figure out decent pay for the gig economy. Spotify is the Uber of streaming.

Should they have more? No they shouldn’t

Why should it have guidelines?

Spotify is profiting on hundreds of thousands of deaths at this point. COVID misinformation is killing millions around the world.

That's why we CAN HAVE AN DEBATE AT ALL! the other guys just censors everything so the damage is lost, just like communism and Nazism.

Cover their mouths! Did someone scream another asks? The answer is commanded ' nothing going on here! Move along!'

If nothing else, Neil Young has at least put Spotify under a scrutinizing spotlight.

The issue is beyond Covid - Rogan isn't a shock jock, he's intentionally spreading lies and misinformation about Covid, election BS, and more. He's screaming 'Fire!' in a crowded movie theater, and spotifyUSA is profiting from the fear/hate mongering of Rogan.

Guidelines? What guidelines?

Only Old Young goes to spotify for covid guidelines.

Just for the people that have never listened to Rogan. He encourages people to talk to their doctor and has said the vaccine is good for people. Now, watch the morons claim otherwise and say he’s dangerous below.
