Fuck these people...and Google, FB and Twitter. If they want that type of mind and speech control shit that's antithetical to Liberty, Freedom and the Republic, haul their GD asses to China for citizenship. Hell, I'll help all of them pack.

Spot on! People need to boycott all these assholes and support freedom loving companies. Surely there must be tech companies ram by conservatives who can provide the same services without censorship or bias. This is an opportunity tech gurus.... Be the Davids who slay Goliath!

That's because those at the top are SJWs too for example Jack Dorsey of Twitter. They actually support these protesters and secretly agree with them while publically pretending they don't for the sake of the shareholders.

If Joe is a real man and a real stoner he will continue to interview who he wants and say what he wants and will relish the disturbance he causes to THE MAN.

Also he NEEDS to get those lost episodes put back on Spotify. There was no justification for censoring those.

That's because those hate speech laws only censor white people. Blacks and others wouldn't support it if they were on the receiving end of these racist targeted censorship rules and believe me they say things I as white person find offensive and hateful.
 Quoting: 2hot2handle


At this point we are so beyond 'selective enforcement' of laws none of that matters. As a matter of fact the whole point of the protests is to expand 'selective enforcement' if you listen to the meaning behind the platitudes.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75543000


They want SJW rainbow wearing cops that enforce politically correct rules and forget about actual violent crime so actual criminals can be free to commit crime with impunity as part of reparations or some lame excuse like that. That's the way the police are going in Britain. It is blue nail polish on male cops and rainbow flags on the police cars while they come to your house to arrest you for a mean tweet that pissed off some Social Justice activist while they ignore all the actual violent crime and robberies going on.

Even if you do not like joe rogan, its messed up, that they want to censor him.

How is he in any way controversial?

Maybe they do not like, how he has woken up to the lefts fantasy of that perfect world, that is not going to be a reality.

Is that what these people are moaning about?

Re: Report: Employees threaten to strike if Spotify refuses to censor Joe Rogan
Joe Rogan is what progressive liberals despise.

A married heterosexual man that still has his ferocity, loves the 2nd Amendment, will not be shamed into believing anything, and could beat them in a fist fight.

He is “influencing“ far more young people than their paid influencers.

He is curious, will talk to anybody.

and still has a working b.s. meter even after being in LA for so long.

and, he is a pretty funny guy, not my favorite comedian, but hey, no one can ever replace Bill Hicks.

 Quoting: Blag Dahlia


You know those scenes where the hero has a gun on the villain and could take him out easily, but the villain asks to have a fair fight man to man, so the hero drops the gun and then the villain, pulls his gun out and shoots the hero? It's all a ruse to get people to disarm themselves, both literally and metaphorically.

Conservatives think they are making valid points when they point out hypocrisy, but nobody fucking cares. Conservatives will be put up against the wall one day and their last words will be "why is it fair for you to kill me, but not for me to kill you." Impotent.

And stop with the stupid Nazi book burner meme. That's a lie told by your enemies and you believe it. Go look at what books they were burning. Magnus Hirschfeld had a sexology research center where the world's first sex change operations were held. Do you know what books they were burning? Degenerate materials that promoted the same kind of abominations we all lament today. That shit was present and pushed hard in Weimar Germany, just like today.

"It’s what's being called the $100 million headache.

UFC color commentator and podcasting deity Joe Rogan signed an exclusive multi-year deal with Spotify earlier this year, but it seems not everyone associated with the digital streaming service wants to be part of the “Experience.”

Despite several internal meetings, select staffers were reportedly dissatisfied with the way senior management responded to Rogan’s controversial material, which prior to finding its way to Spotify, aired exclusively on the longtime funnyman’s YouTube channel."

"Digital Music News reports:

Spotify employees were demanding direct editorial oversight over the recently-acquired Joe Rogan Experience podcast. That would include the ability to directly edit or remove sections of upcoming interviews, or block the uploading of episodes deemed problematic. The employees also demanded the ability to add trigger warnings, corrections, and references to fact-checked articles on topics discussed by Rogan in the course of his multi-hour discussions."
