Do you know when he actually said it? How about when quoting black comedians? He was discussing them and quoted their words. Is that not allowed?


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?

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.

Oops! “Removed” not “how’s your nose to”

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?

The Rogan bootlickers, like this unfunny hack who got rich off Joe Rogan appearances, say it's all an election conspiracy. If this hack could get rich being anti-Rogan he would be tweeting how awful Rogan is instead. Shameless toady.

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.

We did see that. That's why we just canceled our premium subscription.

In addition to the Obamas, I bet anything top 10 streaming artists like Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift are plotting an exit.

I think he's about to be canned. The Obamas are going to pull out on Monday and tank the stock if Spotify doesn't just sack him.

Freedom of speech does not protect dangerous language.


So who gets to decide who is a quack vs. a fully informed person? I thought the problem was that there are "idiots" out there who are uneducated and will fall for anything. Now you're saying we can't let anyone in society, educated or not, talk to any other person, educated or not, unless both people have been vetted? Do we all have to sit inside our houses, not talk to each other, not go to the library, not use the internet, not watch TV - just sit in our chairs and get direct messages from the government, and that's it?

Bingo. Stop this paternalistic crap.


No. The idiots have proven they can't be trusted to do basic common sense things.


Ah, but the "experts" today will be deemed the "idiots" tomorrow.
Evidenced by what we have been told was certain in the past two years which has turned out to be totally false.


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.
