No, they won't. Any reasonable non-idiot understands that our knowledge and resulting course of action for a novel virus will evolve over time. The idiots will still be idiots though. |
| In addition to the Obamas, I bet anything top 10 streaming artists like Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift are plotting an exit. |
| It's not like Spotify actually pays musicians that much, while paying Rogan tons of money to say the n word and spread crap disinformation. |
Which is why this is going to snowball into more artists, including top 20 artists -- it's not only good P.R. and virtue signaling for them, it can be used as leverage to get more favorable pay scale from Spotify. |

DP. He reportedly use the N-word 24 times. That’s beyond inexcusable. I don’t care what the context is. Are you comfortable with it? https://www.google.com/amp/s/deadline.com/2022/02/spotify-joe-rogan-n-word-india-arie-pulls-music-1234927120/amp/ |

70 times?! 70 times he needed to quote black comedians and others and in context, blah, blah blah. No. Nope. No.
I do hate that actual artists get paid pennies and he gets paid $100mil -- but I do not blame JR for that. |
I read Spotify removed at least 60 previous episodes due to use of "a racial slur." |
NY Post is reporting that Spotify how’s your nose to over 100 episodes of the JR podcast. He must’ve said something questionable in all those podcasts. https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2022/02/05/spotify-has-removed-over-100-episodes-of-joe-rogans-podcast/amp/ |
Oops! “Removed” not “how’s your nose to” |

Let’s pretend it was okay to quote Black comedians. Sure. You can have those PP. Now tell how it was okay to make the comment about describing a neighborhood he had just visited as “Planet of the Apes.” Walk us through how that one was okay. And when you’re done with that, walk us through how he dared one of his guests to say the n-word and then giggled like a 12 year when the guest did it. What Black comedian was he quoting? |
