Artists who care about Freedom need to threaten to pull their work if Spotify Censors Joe Rogan

Neil Young is such a hypocrite, yeah "keep rockin in the FREE world..."

Yeah it's pretty pathetic to cancel/try to cancel an opinion (or even facts!) just because you don't agree with it. What is this world coming to? Absolutely appalling that this behavior is accepted and encouraged. Not surprising though.

I think you’re getting the word “censor” mixed up wit the phrase “I don’t agree with.” Removing music isn’t censoring anything.

Too bad 95% of all talented musical artists are liberal.

Liberalism caters to the lazy. Talent and hard work don't always go hand in hand. In music, talent is all you need.

Nationalism and good art don't mix.

So Neil Young should be forced to keep his music on a platform when he disagrees with their policies? He should just pull his music without telling them the reason?

Misinformation is not an “opinion.” That would be saying that “I don’t believe gravity exists” is an opinion: it’s not.

The only way this censorship of free speech and cancel culture ends if those who are not woke hold these corporations to the fire too. If the threats of boycott and financial harm start coming from those in favor of freedom and free speech then it will force corporations to tell the woke to grow up. If people show the woke they are not intimidated they'll realize that financial harm from not accomodating these morons is minimal. The problem is once you've shown them blood is in the water they will never go away.

So your basic thesis is that if a private company exercises their free speech by canceling somebody, then we should all respond by canceling that private company?

The liberals label truth contrary to their agenda as "misinformation." You've clearly been groomed and indoctrinated into drinking the kool-aid. Hope you feel all warm and fuzzy inside with your delusional sense of self righteousness.

People don't cover things up amd censor unless they HAVE SOMETHING TO HIDE. Why bother even censoring things if they're false? People can decide for themselves. But nope, the institution needs CONTROL to thrive. And they must control the minds first and foremost. If too many people catch on that the narrative is fraudulent and agenda driven, and rebel, then their whole charade falls apart. So their premise is to maintain some degree of control of a set number of people (likely around 50+) and they can run rampant with their self serving agenda under the guise that they want what's best for society. That is the big lie.

1. There’s millennia of evidence that gravity is real. Comparing the opinions of a doctor who did widely respected work on MRNA vaccines on that same technology to denying gravity seems extreme and disingenuous.

2. So objectively false viewpoints should be banned? Who decides whats objectively false? If it’s so obviously false, why does anyone believe it? Oh right, I’m sure it’s because half the world are morons and you just happen to be in the intelligent half.

3. It might interest you to know that scientists’ understanding of gravity has changed and evolved significantly throughout the years. None of that evolution would have been possible if nobody questioned the mainstream viewpoint.

4. The fact that 95% of ‘alternative thinkers’ are full of sh!t doesn’t mean that you silence them. Deplatforming people in this day and age is akin to policing free thought. Let people hear truth, untruth, and everything in between and let them decide for themselves.

Ok freedom loving artists, line up to boycott. Be the most woke. Or the wokest.

Ok, sure. Let's let not put any restrictions on any alternate viewpoints. If Al Qaeda or some other group hostile to the West wants to promulgate its worldview to use as a recruiting tool, no problem. The same with the KKK or other racists groups. After all, the views of these organizations are just different opinions and beliefs, right?

The weird thing is the Canadian hypocrite holds no rights or ownership of his music anymore.

Joe Rogan is a credulous chump. He appeals to other credulous chumps. Intelligent people give him a wide berth.

What difference do you think it makes if it is a 'private company'? Why is huge corporations curtailing the free speech of individuals not an issue for you? Are you trying to make the dumb 'double standards' argument of 'but Trumpers are for Captalism'? Big tech companies like Spotify with a global reach are now more powerful than many States in their ability to decide who has a voice and who doesn't. What about the double standard of 'progressive liberals' supporting the right of a handful of billionaire Harvard tech CEOs to determine what the masses are allowed to read or hear, and to make sure it's not working men like Joe Rogan with an independent contrarian mind that they are allowed to hear?
