I'm sure we could find much stranger, much more harmful podcasts/programs on their platform.Let me rephrase that: "a stance they allow to be promoted on their platform."

He chose to take his music off a privately owned platform because he didn't agree with the agenda of one of that company's biggest commodities. Do you think he was under any delusion they would actually get rid of Rogan? No. This is exactly what he expected. Like it or not, he did it to make a point. If he has the right to control the distribution if his music, he has the right to pull it from Rogan's platform.
Misinformation - big difference.
But of course it applies to all.
Rogan was a huge deal for Spotify and draws a massive following. If Young thinks that is more problematic than the "Two Guys Who Were In The Sopranos Talk About Every Episode of The Sopranos" podcast, it's his prerogative.this just sounds so silly. Spotify has over 3 million podcasts - imagine how many stances are being promoted on their platform that someone would find objectionable. Hard to imagine every single person couldn't find stances they find objectionable and even dangerous. So odd that a couple parts of a couple episodes of Rogan are the PROBLEM.
No one wants to limit discussion, only intentional and harmful misinformation.
Off the top of my head, 3 instances of Misinformation from Fauci: all under his "noble lie" rationale. 1) don't need masks (wanted to avoid demand for masks to protect healthcare workers), 2) heard immunity at around 70% vax rate (later admitted he thought the number was higher but felt people would think the number too high so he went lower than he knew to encourage vaxing), 3) when informed Covid looked man-made he worked to quash that thinking because it might harm "science".
Each of these are him intentionally providing wrong information because he thought it was better to lie than tell the truth.
You know far more about him than I do. I've listened to very little of what he said. I've never been able to figure out what you guys' obsession is with him.
I'm reposting my first post...... intentional and harmful misinformation
. But if Spotify feels his information does not belong on it's platform - so be it.
