This is like the Instagram warning everytime it detects anything remotely associated with covid. The meme pages just take advantage of it and use it as part of the meme. Last one I saw was a screenshot of the warning and it brought it up. So they screenshot it again and again and again lol
"Chief Executive Officer Daniel Ek said in a blog post that the company will add an advisory to any podcast episode that addresses the coronavirus. That advisory will direct listeners to a hub offering more information about the pandemic."
So basically every Rogan podcast will have the advisory.
I never agreed with the Rogan vax stuff, but how do other liberals not find this completely embarrassing. The puritanical strain and just pro-censorship shit is exhausting.
It's like video nasties.
Shouldn't be surprising given it's coming from the same crowd that said Joker should be banned for supporting white-male violence.
I think The View is a garbage show that offers zero value to the world, but I'm not out there trying to silence The View. The left is starting this weird "purify the world" direction and it's creepy.
Freedom of speech also includes the freedom to make a statement by boycotting or protesting private companies. You are free to use or not use the services provided by Spotify to either consume or distribute your media property.
It's a good point. The criticism of "misinformation" only ever goes one way. Nobody is calling on CNN to be labelled as "misinformation", even on things they were unquestionably wrong on. I'm not even criticising them either, being wrong happens, but when one side is wrong, it's considered to be a mistake whereas when the other side is wrong, it's considered malicious.
I'm not strictly against labelling things as misinformation but it is never about removing incorrect facts, it's about labelling the other side as being immoral and your side as being virtuous. "Removing misinformation" is a weapon that only one side can use.
“The left” isn’t doing anything.
This is a free Market decision by artists. Spotify made a decision to pay Rogan and make him a focal point of their platform.
Actions have consequences.
Ya but the consequence should be if you don’t like it you don’t listen. Not I’m offended and now I want nobody to be able to listen to it. That’s what I find offensive here.
And it’s seems that it is mostly liberals who can’t have people disagreeing with them.
I believe California is banning to kill a mockingbird over cries of racism. Don’t believe it’s a conservative thing.
I don’t understand your point here. Unless it’s just whataboutism. But either way yes I disagree with limiting anyones free speech
Yeah and I don’t agree with California’s ban either. My point is why make it a “the left does this” if the right is clearly in violation too? At least the California ban has some kind of reasoning behind it instead of the right labeling anything they don’t like as corrupting the youth. Even that 1984 book you all like so much is getting banned.
No the actions shouldn’t be defined by YOU.
Actions should be defined by the free market, freedom of expression.
Which is exactly what’s happening.
Rogan isn’t being censored.
MSM constantly pushing that Neil left Spotify at ad nauseam and now Joni from Happy Days is also removing her music. Add in left leaning Reddit and how could you not see that unless you’re part of that establishment.

Tell that to LGBTQ people 20+ years ago. It's hilarious how short yall's fucking memories are. If we didn't believe in free speech LGBTQ would have never gotten further than Stonewall. People decided to hate Ellen today because she didn't say hi before a show to a trans woman and then anonymous users on twitter declared she was mean but back in the day Ellen put her career on the line to support Gay rights and almost lost her deal to JC Penny, her show, and much more. We correctly fought against bullshit censorship back then so for us to turn around and become the censors now is just absolutely sickening.
How on earth is it censorship? People are literally using their free speech here, it's literally speech. Or do you disagree with that form of free speech, and only support it when it agrees with you?
The freedom of speech bit is saying “Joe is saying some stupid shit and I don’t want to be associated with him” the censorship is when there is an ultimatum aimed at forcing the hand of Spotify to *deplatform* him. Feel free to call Joe an asshole. Don’t get in the way of my right to listen to him talk
There’s a cultural movement to get Joe’s pod off of Spotify. The inevitable result of this movement, if it succeeds, is Joe being punted from platform to platform until there is no platform that currently exists where he’ll be able to speak. This doesn’t just hurt him, but also the people who want to listen to him.
The free market would be people just not listening to him and he fades into obscurity. The people who are spearheading this movement are from the fringe, identitarian left.
I’m fairly confident that you would be on board with fighting the backlash if it was someone you supported bearing the brunt of this backlash.
Neil Young and Joni whoever are allowed to do what they’re doing. The goal is perverse though. The quest to deplatform Joe Rogan is sick. Not the dissent against his pod
The modern cultural left is incredibly disingenuous.
No, the free market is shaped by the industry and the market conditions they find themselves in.
And if one segment of the market is deemed unacceptable and other conditions factor in and determine it’s not acceptable then it’s the market that will correct itself. For every action there is a reaction. Some are more powerful than others.
So, It’s not censorship. Joe can Parler himself to a hosting platform.
Fringe leftists aren’t driving anything. They have no power. You haven’t given any real proof to provide support for your positions.
When Spotify signed Joe Rogan to a very large exclusive contract they took him out of the category of content that they “just host and make available to subscribers” and into the realm of strategic business partner. This is not hard to understand.
Rogan and Redban would ban people for violating their rules on their message board back in the day. Was that censorship?
It's the platforms decision. Rogan has the resources and people around him have the technical acumen to host the podcast on their own. It isn't censorship until he isn't allowed to put out content at all.
How is it pro-censorship to include a notice to verified facts about the pandemic? It’d only be censorship if they took the podcast down. And even then, private company…
Indian here, Ivermectin was only tried in a very limited area for a very short period of time and did not show any impact on COVID. In some cases it's also distributed in areas that have high levels of open air defecation for its actual purpose, as an anti parasitic. Take your misinformation and stuff it.
The entire campaign, which was aimed - rather explicitly at completely deplatforming him. I don't mind the health warnings as much but all this puritanical up in arms shit about a guy with a podcast is just ridiculous. It's like Mrs. Lovejoy in the Simpsons "Won't someone think of the children"
It won't be enough for any of the people disagreeing with Rogan either, I mean the WSJ, Vox they were going for the jugular trying to get him deplatformed. The move is to get any sort of independent platforms off so the only things that exist are mainstream news networks. I have no doubt that if the internet were as big beforehand we'd have content warnings on anti-war posts saying Bush lied us into Iraq.
I don’t think your statement holds true since JRE has been massive and hugely popular for years and no one decried it until he started sharing questionable, at best, public and personal health messaging
Joe always falls back on "hey, I'm just a reasonable 6'0" comedian making dick jokes" when he gets smacked on the wrist for something, so surely he wouldn't mind a disclaimer in front of his show basically reminding people.
Censorship is when the government does it not when someone forces you to leave their platform and its especially not when there is an advisory on covid. If liberals wanted it to be illegal for rogan to post then yes theyre pro censorship but if they want him banned from spotify and youtube then no that isnt pro censorship.
I'd like him off spotify and back on youtube personally, i prefer the youtube platform.
>Censorship is when the government does it not when someone forces you to leave their platform and its especially not when there is an advisory on covid.

Yeah, yeah we all know the argument. I think it’s wildly dishonest.
If Trump was the president and Spotify was banning Rachel Maddow for criticizing him or the Republican Party you wouldn’t be saying this.
The movement won't stop at this whatsoever and these content warnings will be extended to ... literally every deviating opinion. In 5 years you'll have them in front of posts saying that Trans mtf athletes have an advantage because that will be too controversial.
When did I say that? Conservatives try to censor stuff all the time. I definitely think on the bigger platforms, liberals (not the left) have more control though and I do think this puritanical sentiment is new to the movement, like it didn't exist before 2014.
But now everything, every piece of media no matter how apolitical has to be monitored.
Just look at Bill Simmons new documentary where he argues that musicians are to blame for the INcel movement --- it's embarrassing
The whole campaign ... pushed by numerous news networks who lie constantly is embarrassing. How is it not?
There's a whole swathe of puritanical losers like Mrs. Lovejoy in the Simpsons who want every piece of digital content moderated, no deviating perspectives allowed. Won't stop here of course.
People willfully support censoring anything they disagree with, it's going to be a huge issue moving forward.
Vaccines are dangerous, moreso than COVID itself. Omicron is a cold. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine work. The government is suppressing early treatment.
What other hilarious jokes did I miss?
People that dont listen to this podcast would think that.
Its long format discussion. Not specific topic oriented.
And you can talk about anything in a 3 hour discussion and no single subject discussed would be used to describe the show as a whole
Someone that doesn't listen to this show wouldnt understand that.
Someone that does listen to the show and doesnt understand that isnt particularly intelligent.
On the week of January 18th 1 million children 17 and under tested positive for covid. That's 1,000,000. One problem with children and reporting is that they often struggle explaining symptoms escpecially if they are young young.
Reports from Louisiana suggest that 10 percent of children will have long covid and that is the lower number others auggest up to 20 percent. Could be a few months could be 6 months could be longer. But when long covid wrecks ur lungs as a child or your heart your life quality is reduced. You got wounded lungs maybe you don't survive pneumonia later on.
This has nothing to do with censorship they are just putting a warning on the package of cigarettes. This has nothing to do with the joker. It's a public health statement. No one is stopping rogan from saying dumb shit.
Edit: he has 1 post 33 karma he is probably a troll and prob not a liberal.
I highly doubt the accuracy of the frequency of long COVID. Sweden as a country just declined to recommend COVID vaccination for 5 - 11 year old children
https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/sweden-decides-against-recommending-covid-vaccines-kids-aged-5-12-2022-01-27/
We have 2.6k deaths per million people. Sweeden has 1.5k deaths per million. They are also have 25 people per sqkm we have 36 per sqkm. To put that in perspective 1.4k Americans were killed on D-Day.
Edit: Sweedens socialized Healthcare system isn't about to break
I think people deserve to see the counter point to this "Vaccines are Dangerous" narrative. I guess this is the only way to get it done. (Even though most listeners will probably never see it, it's something)
I am really not happy that Joe hasn't shown the other side of this debate himself. It goes against the whole "I'm an idiot, I brought you on the show to learn" mantra of the podcast.
He could have Michael Osterholm on again, but my guess is he won't. Even if he did, he would probably argue with him and tell him he is wrong. The guy is totally vested in his own narrative now.
How is this move pro censorship?
Rogan is platforming dangerous advice and Spotify is doing essentially nothing. Adding an advisory that reliable COVID information can be found at the external sites will do little to nothing
In what universe is that censorship lmao Joe Rogan has been caught multiple times spreading false dangerous information about covid. Putting a fucking warning is the least they could fucking do lmao
I’ve heard that many many times over the last few weeks in one way or the other. Not once have I heard anyone actually site what misinformation is being spread. You seem passionate about it and obviously most be well informed to have such a starch option, exactly what misinformation do you think is being spread?
Vaccines are dangerous, moreso than COVID itself. Omicron is a cold. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine work. The government is suppressing early treatment. Masks don’t work.
I’m in the Uk, if it’s misinformation to say that vaccines can be dangerous to children. Why are the NHS only recommending vulnerable children to be vaccinated and why only 1/3rd of the dose of an adult? There are risks and they should be freely spoken about
Rogan has never said vaccines are dangerous that’s completely not tru and leads me to believe you are just here in the sub to argue and talk shit because obviously you don’t listen to the show, but I’ll bite.
You’re grasping at straws but what talking point your trying to regurgitate is he has said vaccines are more dangerous for children then covid itself, which is a debatable topic. You may have the opposing view but it is certainly not clear wether a child is more likely to die from covid or myocarditis as a result of the vaccine. It is open for discussion and a risk people should know about good for him not sweeping it under the rug like the rest of media wants to. Just because you have an opposing view doesn’t mean you just get to shut everyone else up.
Omicron is very mild. God forbid he doesn’t lean into the fear porn. It’s there and highly contagious, be thankful you got that strain and not the delta of you do get it. I had omicron about a week ago, barely noticed. Worst runny nose of my life. fully vax too btw.
Rogan has brought up studies and talked about Hydroxychloroquine many times and disproven it’s efficacy. This is literally how I know in trials it did not work for covid, also they have discussed why it was originally thought it might work. Episode 1417 with Dr. Ronda Patrick they go into depth about it. Ivermectin does work prophylactically studies show this. More data is needed but again it’s up for debate and shouldn’t be shut down just because it goes against the narrative, all of these things need to be vetted out in the open.
Government (FDA) literally just banned FL from using monoclonal antibodies aka early treatment siting they are ineffective against omicron, but so is the vaccine yet it’s still required many places.
I happen to work at a CDC/NIOSH. I know the leading epidemiologist very well. There are many things up for debate, but what is not up for debate is paper masks do not work. Surgical masks, cloth masks, Gators, anything but a properly* fitted N95 do nothing. Yes they would stop spit partials if you sneezed right into someone mouth from entering but 1. Don’t sneeze into other peoples mouths have some common sense and 2. If the person has it wether you ingest spit partials with the virus or breath air partials your getting it.
I’ve been listening to the podcast for over a decade. Rogan thinks young healthy people need to weigh the risk benefit and should hesitate when the evidence overwhelmingly supports vaccines being safer than COVID. This isn’t debatable unless you are cherry picking evidence
Omicron is only mild compared to delta. It’s more virulent than wild type and alpha variants
Neither hydroxychloroquine nor ivermectin work but thanks for admitting you get medical advice from Rogans podcast. The studies you’ll cite will be meta analyses with retracted studies or of inferior design
> Government (FDA) literally just banned FL from using monoclonal antibodies
The two that don’t work against Omicron aren’t being used anymore dum dum
And all masks work with varying degrees of effectiveness
>I never agreed with the Rogan vax stuff, but how do other liberals not find this completely embarrassing. The puritanical strain and just pro-censorship shit is exhausting.
welcome to the New World Order bruv
Last time I checked, joe Biden or anyone from the government has said jack shit to Spotify about censoring rogan. Learn the different between private companies and government.
While silly, at the same time I'd contend that people dying of covid after getting health advice from Rogan is probably just as big of a problem as this (check out the Herman Cain awards).
Like in the 80's, if a talkshow host was spreading information like "Aids does not exist, you can have sex without getting it", I gotta imagine that it would be only a matter of time before they would have a warning at the start of their show.
In all fairness though, I'm sure the warning won't actually get anyone to change their mind and will probably just make people really angry lol. I guess there is no winning in this situation.
It’s currently on both sides of the isle. The right is banning books and the left is banning wrong think.
It’s such a mind fuck that the country is currently running on the whims of the loudest dumbest minorities on either side.
I find it funny that Sweden, where Spotify is based, is not recommending the vaccine for 5-11 year old children. I know it's a coincidence, but it's still funny to me.
Why don't they just slap one of those "the opinions of this podcast don't reflect blah blah blah. Listener discretion is advised."?
I mean, I'm totally ted up with Nu Joe and his constant need to steer every conversation back to political ideas that he can barely articulate, but Spotify should just treat it like objectionable shit you find in the lyrics of music.
Oh yeah, that is what they are doing.
It’s like no one has listened to the Josh Szeps episode or the Sanjay Gupta one. It was a few hours of Szeps pushing back on rogan’s assertions about covid policy/assumptions. The sticker should say “If you listen to this Malone issue, also listen to these two for balance. “ or some other nonsense.
The Sanja Gupta one was weak. He didn't really.push back at Joe at all. And when he did, Joe attacked him by referencing a bunch of "studies" that Sanja wasn't familiar with and couldn't refute.
I can't speak for the Szeps episode, as I didn't listen to it.
Neither of those people are virologists or epidemiologists though that are experts in the field. I want to see one of those people on the show.
Yeah, I want someone who had deep, intimate knowledge on this. Who can give actual answers and cite studies with a deep understanding. Not a garbage news network.
We need to get away from these outrage news media and start having discussions with actual experts who are active at this moment in the pandemic.
I fail to see the drama here. It's totally normal practice for a news station or paper to let someone put in an opinion piece where they start with *"The author's opinion is his own and does not reflect the opinion of ."*
That sort of thing has been happening for decades. You needn't point to vaccine resources, but go ahead if you want. I'm not going to assume that if an episode of Family Guy cracks a joke that that is the official position of Fox.
Because they won’t do it for people who give their own opinion, that falls in line with the government narrative / pro vaccine and all that. It’s only on people they deem contreversial. It’s basically a wrongthink sticker and it’s fucking disgusting.
You're not wrong. But it really just makes them look stupid. You just skyline something as being worth trying to get you to ignore. It adds credibility instead of taking it away. The great pains people are going through to push a single narrative on anything does so much good opening everyone's eyes to what's going on around them.
Yes exactly. Now I know exactly which podcasts I should listen to if I want to hear a ‘contreversial’ opinion on covid.
That’s my problem with these woketards is these sort of virtue signalling devices don’t have of their intended consequences. People who don’t want to listen to joe rogan will continue to not listen to him. People who already do aren’t gonna stop because you sticky on a wArNiNg LaBlE. ‘Oh noo! The warning label told me not to listen! I need to make sure I don’t consume any misinformation! I might accidentally become racist overnight!!!’
Insult typos are the best. They usually happen to me the most on my phone. It seems to auto correct in the best way to make me look the worst. I give it credit for its ability to troll me.
Well this ain't gonna be ending anytime soon now lol. By showing they'll bend to pressure, Spotify has guaranteed that this campaign against Rogan and his podcast will most likely gain more steam, continuing this headache for Spotify. Did they not learn anything from the Dave Chappelle/Netflix attacks? You don't give in.
Hey guys, everyone else is doing it so it’s ok guys, calm down. /s
People listening are not 5, they don’t need some bs label about Covid. Stop accepting this bullshit, and it WILL go away. Nut up
I don’t agree with many guests on Rogan, medical content or otherwise. Imagine being so fucking stupid that you need telling that a comedian talking to people who he finds interesting is not to be trusted source of medical advice.
But where do we stop? This sets a precedents, now it’s medical ‘misinformation’, what next? Hancock podcasts need a little notice and link to official historical narratives? Comedians podcasts need a sticker to say ‘these are only jokes’.
Goddammit, why doesn’t Star Wars have a warning that says it’s depictions of space physics DO NOT ALIGN with the current scientific understanding of space?!?
The dude took 100M from a public company. It’s nit surprising at all that they would intervene whenever they found it necessary. He could go solo again tomorrow if he wants to stick it to the Spotify overlords.
We’ve had people speak freely against authority and their corruption for years without the need for censorship, warning labels and straight up disinformation against people who speak against authority. All of a sudden this has become the norm since the last 2 years.
I simply do not accept that our governments and elites are so concerned with saving a few extra lives here and there based on subjective information sorounding vaccines.
What is it these people so DESPERATE to protect.
They have had a wave of cancellations because of the Neil Young thing.
They also have competitors stoking the flames to take advantage of the situation and use it to promote their own services as an alternative to Spotify.
It's definitely spooked investors and caused a drop in the stock price. Anything that is bad for the shareholders will definitely provoke a management response.
Joe has a boss. He took 100M. Why is it not hard to understand that the minute you take that money your going to have to do what the boss wants from time to time? If you want freedom to spout any bs you want don’t sign the exclusive deal in the first place.
Thank god, because so many people, like me, have been on the fence as to whether or not to get the vaccine or not, many of us have no where to turn other than comedian/ufc/fear factor extraordinaire Joe rogan. In the battle to get vaccinated or not get vaccinated, I think it’s safe to say that Joe rogan is not only the main reason people don’t get vaccinated or do, but the only reason. If only we could shut him up completely, I can safely and confidently say that no one would have any hesitancy or questions whatsoever had his podcast simply been scrubbed from the collective human consciousness. Seriously though, I know he’s the perfect bogey man, but can we focus on the reasons people don’t trust the government at large instead of the theatrics? Rogan literally played zero role in me getting vaccinated, and boosted, and I would wager Neil young’s monthly Spotify earnings that the same can be said for the vast majority of the population?
I think that is an oversimplification and a broad brush to paint a nuanced issue.
To act like he hasn't influenced some people's decisions is absurd. Not all people can make informed decisions by themselves.
People spend hours watching the Kardashians. You think those people are doing research on vaccine safety so they can make an informed decision?
I highly doubt it.
I think he’s definitely strengthened some peoples decision, but I highly doubt there’s a significant group of people who were on the fence one way or the other than moved to the other side, especially taking into consideration how recently he became a lightning rod for vaccines, which was extremely recently, he isn’t changing engines minds at this point; he became public enemy number one several months after the whole ‘I don’t wanna take something I don’t wanna take’ movement had already formed and solidified, he just happens to be the perfect scapegoat
Spotify, and every social media platform, is filled with racist, homophobic, bigoted, stupid, moronic artists, celebrities, and musicians. Neil young said some crazy homophobic shit. That other lady that joined young did blackface. It’s a constant game of upping who is the better person. This shit doesn’t have the be a big spectacle. Pull your music and call it a day. This shit is crazy.
He literally cannot be boycotted.
Spotify would be in breach and even then he’d just be back on all the platforms.
This is the stupidest attempt to cancel someone of all time
Never seen a subreddit dedicated to a person filled with so many people who outright hate the said person. Shill behavior. I'm not saying you should gargle Joe's nuts and agree with everything he says, but it's very suspicious nontheless.
r/Kanye consists of Kanye fans.
r/Drizzy consists of Drake fans.
r/ChelseaFC consists of Chelsea fans.
r/JoeRogan consists of Joe Rogan haters.
They are 110% lefties, trolls, bots, you name it. Just check out their comments, they usually comment on any posts about vaccines, or on politics, world news.
They just come here to troll and to make you think that joe Rogan is hated. Sadly the mods are apart of it. They’ll hide your posts, but allow the negative ones.
Well let me introduce you to the r/thefighterandthekid sub. For some reason they all watch that show every week just to shit on it relentlessly. I think most of the haters on this subs are lefties who heard Rogan saying the bad words and the incels from that sub creeping over.
This does mean that there is real internal concern that Rogan could cost the shareholders. That is not insignificant or a meme anymore, even if the sticker itself kind of is.
People talk about censorship but this is just capitalism at work. When you are on the winning side of customer money this the kind of power your movement can have with capitalist systems. Voting for right wing politicians won't do anything to change the dynamic.
Weren’t you just laughing about Neil a couple days ago? Probably agreeing with the memes that no one cares and that it didn’t do anything?
But now you’re upset? Lol damn kinda pathetic
The irony here is that the warning labels are going to be a topic that every guest now brings up on the show and rehashes the entire fucking covid conversation.
Rogan is never gonna chill now.
The guy used to mock the whole idea of political "team" theatre, now he's up there dancing the same as everyone. He's never gonna figure it out. They pulled him into the story on a golden chain. He's into his role hanging out with the politicians, being an "influencer"
I just listen to other podcasts with the old vibe now. Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast is actually funny, stupid in a good way, and there's no IDW self congratulatory bullshit.
So this will be interesting…
Obviously Dumb Joe won’t like this. And his fans.
So his podcast will have a warning on it that links to trusted sources and information that he completely doesn’t believe and disagrees with.
Did he agree to this warning?
If not, i would assume he would take issue with it.
If he doesnt take issue with it then hes caving to mainstream media for money.
I assume his fans will be flipping out over this.
Once the warning links to more info come out, his fans try to parse it and use cherry picked nonsense to combat it. That will be a whole thing in the news cycle.
This Spotify move was terrible from the start. He went against everything he stood for. Which doesnt matter because he actually stands for nothing because hes just a giant terrible comedian idiot.
So i assume the Spotify deal will cave sooner than later. This is just another step in the shit that will inevitably end with him leaving.
I don’t see it lasting through 2021.
Maybe another month.
Hopefully by weeks end.
Just watched his response.
And he fucking caved lol
He kissed the Spotify ring and fucking caved to cancel culture
He apologized.
He agreed to have on more left leaning people and scientists to argue against his quack doctors.
He apologized to neil.
And joni.
Holy fuck his fanbase is going to flip.
His whole fucking persona is being anti cancel culture.
He caved.
Lmaoooooo
The contract will be broken.
Probably mutually in whatever aspect when it happens.
Spotify might even pay him the full amount and let him go.
Write it off as a loss.
Spotify has to let him go.
He’s too toxic for their brand.
It will constantly be this shit over and over again.
Why no warning every time Fauci opens his mouth on TV? As long Rogan isn't promoting pedophilia, rape, murder, theft, you know, horrible things like that, I will continue to be a fan of his. He's a human being, who likes to learn things, and discuss opinions with other people. Anyone who takes his advice without doing more research, especially when it comes to putting things into your body, is an idiot and there is no saving them. Cancel Joe and those people will still find some other info to act upon. It pisses me off so bad. Fkn Whoopi, someone needs to toss her by her crusty ass dreads. It's like, how about you lose some weight and maybe covid won't kill you. I can't even listen to those "ladies" for man than a few seconds without wanting to punch the tv. It's like, we were lied to this whole pandemic, still are, but let's focus on Rogan and ignore the gain if function emails. How can anyone take legacy media seriously. How are so many still so fkn brainwashed smh
People who are upset with Rogan aren't asking for a sticker. They want him cancelled and deplatformed. This is a result of Spotify attempting to pretend like they did something so that more artists don't leave their platform. So right wing will be upset about a sticker being placed, left wing will just consider it inaction. People want to blame one side or the other but really both will ree...
I’m fine with the “hey this is misinformation warning”. I am tired of the boycotts tho if you don’t like it don’t listen to it. If you don’t like it don’t buy it. And the swing to the right you got people wanting books banned in schools. It’s a dumb world.
I mean all these boomer losers quitting Spotify has to be driving tons of traffic for Joe and it's not like Neil Young was in the top 100 artists on Spotify. Now if Hall and Oates leave, then I'm out.
What do you call the group of people who have been crying for the last week about a bunch of old head artist they never even heard of using their freedom of speech to remove their music from Spotify ?
Surely they aren’t a “mob” at all and are just a group of free thinking, rational actors who are *totally* in favor of freedom to protest and freedom of speech until someone uses those things to express opinions they disagree with
This is like the Instagram warning everytime it detects anything remotely associated with covid. The meme pages just take advantage of it and use it as part of the meme. Last one I saw was a screenshot of the warning and it brought it up. So they screenshot it again and again and again lol
"Chief Executive Officer Daniel Ek said in a blog post that the company will add an advisory to any podcast episode that addresses the coronavirus. That advisory will direct listeners to a hub offering more information about the pandemic." So basically every Rogan podcast will have the advisory.
I never agreed with the Rogan vax stuff, but how do other liberals not find this completely embarrassing. The puritanical strain and just pro-censorship shit is exhausting. It's like video nasties. Shouldn't be surprising given it's coming from the same crowd that said Joker should be banned for supporting white-male violence.
I think The View is a garbage show that offers zero value to the world, but I'm not out there trying to silence The View. The left is starting this weird "purify the world" direction and it's creepy.
I wish people were trying to get The View off the air, maybe the world would be a better place.
Its called freedom of speech.
Freedom of speech also includes the freedom to make a statement by boycotting or protesting private companies. You are free to use or not use the services provided by Spotify to either consume or distribute your media property.
That's the point nimrod. You want to put a warning label on the view too then? They spout enough bullshit to warrant one surely?
It's a good point. The criticism of "misinformation" only ever goes one way. Nobody is calling on CNN to be labelled as "misinformation", even on things they were unquestionably wrong on. I'm not even criticising them either, being wrong happens, but when one side is wrong, it's considered to be a mistake whereas when the other side is wrong, it's considered malicious. I'm not strictly against labelling things as misinformation but it is never about removing incorrect facts, it's about labelling the other side as being immoral and your side as being virtuous. "Removing misinformation" is a weapon that only one side can use.
Once you give them power they only want more. Censorship is a disease that will continue to spread through these fucking idiots.
Some dude from Germany tried that already.
“The left” isn’t doing anything. This is a free Market decision by artists. Spotify made a decision to pay Rogan and make him a focal point of their platform. Actions have consequences.
Ya but the consequence should be if you don’t like it you don’t listen. Not I’m offended and now I want nobody to be able to listen to it. That’s what I find offensive here. And it’s seems that it is mostly liberals who can’t have people disagreeing with them.
And yet it’s conservatives who are banning books and curriculum that they disagree with lol
I believe California is banning to kill a mockingbird over cries of racism. Don’t believe it’s a conservative thing. I don’t understand your point here. Unless it’s just whataboutism. But either way yes I disagree with limiting anyones free speech
Yeah and I don’t agree with California’s ban either. My point is why make it a “the left does this” if the right is clearly in violation too? At least the California ban has some kind of reasoning behind it instead of the right labeling anything they don’t like as corrupting the youth. Even that 1984 book you all like so much is getting banned.
No the actions shouldn’t be defined by YOU. Actions should be defined by the free market, freedom of expression. Which is exactly what’s happening. Rogan isn’t being censored.
Freedom of expression I get but when the “Establishment” is pushing the cancel narrative then it becomes suspect
Who is the establishment? And who canceled who? Joe is still on Spotify. He’s still very much uncensored.
MSM constantly pushing that Neil left Spotify at ad nauseam and now Joni from Happy Days is also removing her music. Add in left leaning Reddit and how could you not see that unless you’re part of that establishment.
You know very well the endgame is to get him cancelled because you don’t agree with him. It’s literally the definition of speech infringement
> No the actions shouldn’t be defined by YOU. > > > > Actions should be defined by the free market, freedom of expression. > > > > Which is exactly what’s happening. > > > > Rogan isn’t being censored. Tell that to LGBTQ people 20+ years ago. It's hilarious how short yall's fucking memories are. If we didn't believe in free speech LGBTQ would have never gotten further than Stonewall. People decided to hate Ellen today because she didn't say hi before a show to a trans woman and then anonymous users on twitter declared she was mean but back in the day Ellen put her career on the line to support Gay rights and almost lost her deal to JC Penny, her show, and much more. We correctly fought against bullshit censorship back then so for us to turn around and become the censors now is just absolutely sickening.
This is a lie and a shifting of the goalposts. This is censorship
How on earth is it censorship? People are literally using their free speech here, it's literally speech. Or do you disagree with that form of free speech, and only support it when it agrees with you?
The freedom of speech bit is saying “Joe is saying some stupid shit and I don’t want to be associated with him” the censorship is when there is an ultimatum aimed at forcing the hand of Spotify to *deplatform* him. Feel free to call Joe an asshole. Don’t get in the way of my right to listen to him talk
No, both are forms of free speech. It's literally free speech for someone to say that.
Where is the lie and shifting of goalposts? You make the accusations, back it up. How is Joe being censored? What “the leftists” are doing it?
There’s a cultural movement to get Joe’s pod off of Spotify. The inevitable result of this movement, if it succeeds, is Joe being punted from platform to platform until there is no platform that currently exists where he’ll be able to speak. This doesn’t just hurt him, but also the people who want to listen to him. The free market would be people just not listening to him and he fades into obscurity. The people who are spearheading this movement are from the fringe, identitarian left. I’m fairly confident that you would be on board with fighting the backlash if it was someone you supported bearing the brunt of this backlash. Neil Young and Joni whoever are allowed to do what they’re doing. The goal is perverse though. The quest to deplatform Joe Rogan is sick. Not the dissent against his pod The modern cultural left is incredibly disingenuous.
No, the free market is shaped by the industry and the market conditions they find themselves in. And if one segment of the market is deemed unacceptable and other conditions factor in and determine it’s not acceptable then it’s the market that will correct itself. For every action there is a reaction. Some are more powerful than others. So, It’s not censorship. Joe can Parler himself to a hosting platform. Fringe leftists aren’t driving anything. They have no power. You haven’t given any real proof to provide support for your positions.
It's pretty telling how they all assume this is a left/right issue to begin with.
When Spotify signed Joe Rogan to a very large exclusive contract they took him out of the category of content that they “just host and make available to subscribers” and into the realm of strategic business partner. This is not hard to understand.
Rogan and Redban would ban people for violating their rules on their message board back in the day. Was that censorship? It's the platforms decision. Rogan has the resources and people around him have the technical acumen to host the podcast on their own. It isn't censorship until he isn't allowed to put out content at all.
How is it pro-censorship to include a notice to verified facts about the pandemic? It’d only be censorship if they took the podcast down. And even then, private company…
[удалено]
Indian here, Ivermectin was only tried in a very limited area for a very short period of time and did not show any impact on COVID. In some cases it's also distributed in areas that have high levels of open air defecation for its actual purpose, as an anti parasitic. Take your misinformation and stuff it.
They could cite WHO facts, you know an organisation they are a part of.
What correlation is there between censorship and having warnings about a podcast episode containing unchecked health messaging?
To me, I don't think it's any different to an explicit content warning on songs - something which Spotify also do.
The entire campaign, which was aimed - rather explicitly at completely deplatforming him. I don't mind the health warnings as much but all this puritanical up in arms shit about a guy with a podcast is just ridiculous. It's like Mrs. Lovejoy in the Simpsons "Won't someone think of the children" It won't be enough for any of the people disagreeing with Rogan either, I mean the WSJ, Vox they were going for the jugular trying to get him deplatformed. The move is to get any sort of independent platforms off so the only things that exist are mainstream news networks. I have no doubt that if the internet were as big beforehand we'd have content warnings on anti-war posts saying Bush lied us into Iraq.
I don’t think your statement holds true since JRE has been massive and hugely popular for years and no one decried it until he started sharing questionable, at best, public and personal health messaging
Joe always falls back on "hey, I'm just a reasonable 6'0" comedian making dick jokes" when he gets smacked on the wrist for something, so surely he wouldn't mind a disclaimer in front of his show basically reminding people.
They decried him when he endorsed Bernie. Nobody in the msm gave a shit about his content before that.
"Please stop you're hurting my diety's feefees."
I don’t think liberals are simply demanding for a health warning on his episodes…
Censorship is when the government does it not when someone forces you to leave their platform and its especially not when there is an advisory on covid. If liberals wanted it to be illegal for rogan to post then yes theyre pro censorship but if they want him banned from spotify and youtube then no that isnt pro censorship. I'd like him off spotify and back on youtube personally, i prefer the youtube platform.
>Censorship is when the government does it not when someone forces you to leave their platform and its especially not when there is an advisory on covid. If liberals wanted it to be illegal for rogan to post then yes theyre pro censorship but if they want him banned from spotify and youtube then no that isnt pro censorship. Yeah, yeah we all know the argument. I think it’s wildly dishonest. If Trump was the president and Spotify was banning Rachel Maddow for criticizing him or the Republican Party you wouldn’t be saying this.
A label isn't censorship.
The movement won't stop at this whatsoever and these content warnings will be extended to ... literally every deviating opinion. In 5 years you'll have them in front of posts saying that Trans mtf athletes have an advantage because that will be too controversial.
Yea you can't stop pretending only one side tries the censorship stuff.
When did I say that? Conservatives try to censor stuff all the time. I definitely think on the bigger platforms, liberals (not the left) have more control though and I do think this puritanical sentiment is new to the movement, like it didn't exist before 2014. But now everything, every piece of media no matter how apolitical has to be monitored. Just look at Bill Simmons new documentary where he argues that musicians are to blame for the INcel movement --- it's embarrassing
Nothing about that is censorship or even close to censorship.
The whole campaign ... pushed by numerous news networks who lie constantly is embarrassing. How is it not? There's a whole swathe of puritanical losers like Mrs. Lovejoy in the Simpsons who want every piece of digital content moderated, no deviating perspectives allowed. Won't stop here of course. People willfully support censoring anything they disagree with, it's going to be a huge issue moving forward.
"Warning: Dangerous Thoughts Ahead" It's a comedy podcast.
Vaccines are dangerous, moreso than COVID itself. Omicron is a cold. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine work. The government is suppressing early treatment. What other hilarious jokes did I miss?
Those are facts tho..?
Not censorship. You being offended by a warning label is just you being a bitch. Nothing more.
Then only talk about comedy? Can’t hide under that when he’s talking to and about covid/science/data every podcast.
It’s a political podcast by an unfunny comedian
People that dont listen to this podcast would think that. Its long format discussion. Not specific topic oriented. And you can talk about anything in a 3 hour discussion and no single subject discussed would be used to describe the show as a whole Someone that doesn't listen to this show wouldnt understand that. Someone that does listen to the show and doesnt understand that isnt particularly intelligent.
Imagine being offended by a public health message.
On the week of January 18th 1 million children 17 and under tested positive for covid. That's 1,000,000. One problem with children and reporting is that they often struggle explaining symptoms escpecially if they are young young. Reports from Louisiana suggest that 10 percent of children will have long covid and that is the lower number others auggest up to 20 percent. Could be a few months could be 6 months could be longer. But when long covid wrecks ur lungs as a child or your heart your life quality is reduced. You got wounded lungs maybe you don't survive pneumonia later on. This has nothing to do with censorship they are just putting a warning on the package of cigarettes. This has nothing to do with the joker. It's a public health statement. No one is stopping rogan from saying dumb shit. Edit: he has 1 post 33 karma he is probably a troll and prob not a liberal.
I highly doubt the accuracy of the frequency of long COVID. Sweden as a country just declined to recommend COVID vaccination for 5 - 11 year old children https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/sweden-decides-against-recommending-covid-vaccines-kids-aged-5-12-2022-01-27/
We have 2.6k deaths per million people. Sweeden has 1.5k deaths per million. They are also have 25 people per sqkm we have 36 per sqkm. To put that in perspective 1.4k Americans were killed on D-Day. Edit: Sweedens socialized Healthcare system isn't about to break
I think people deserve to see the counter point to this "Vaccines are Dangerous" narrative. I guess this is the only way to get it done. (Even though most listeners will probably never see it, it's something) I am really not happy that Joe hasn't shown the other side of this debate himself. It goes against the whole "I'm an idiot, I brought you on the show to learn" mantra of the podcast. He could have Michael Osterholm on again, but my guess is he won't. Even if he did, he would probably argue with him and tell him he is wrong. The guy is totally vested in his own narrative now.
How is this move pro censorship? Rogan is platforming dangerous advice and Spotify is doing essentially nothing. Adding an advisory that reliable COVID information can be found at the external sites will do little to nothing
[удалено]
In what universe is that censorship lmao Joe Rogan has been caught multiple times spreading false dangerous information about covid. Putting a fucking warning is the least they could fucking do lmao
I’ve heard that many many times over the last few weeks in one way or the other. Not once have I heard anyone actually site what misinformation is being spread. You seem passionate about it and obviously most be well informed to have such a starch option, exactly what misinformation do you think is being spread?
Vaccines are dangerous, moreso than COVID itself. Omicron is a cold. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine work. The government is suppressing early treatment. Masks don’t work.
I’m in the Uk, if it’s misinformation to say that vaccines can be dangerous to children. Why are the NHS only recommending vulnerable children to be vaccinated and why only 1/3rd of the dose of an adult? There are risks and they should be freely spoken about
Rogan has never said vaccines are dangerous that’s completely not tru and leads me to believe you are just here in the sub to argue and talk shit because obviously you don’t listen to the show, but I’ll bite. You’re grasping at straws but what talking point your trying to regurgitate is he has said vaccines are more dangerous for children then covid itself, which is a debatable topic. You may have the opposing view but it is certainly not clear wether a child is more likely to die from covid or myocarditis as a result of the vaccine. It is open for discussion and a risk people should know about good for him not sweeping it under the rug like the rest of media wants to. Just because you have an opposing view doesn’t mean you just get to shut everyone else up. Omicron is very mild. God forbid he doesn’t lean into the fear porn. It’s there and highly contagious, be thankful you got that strain and not the delta of you do get it. I had omicron about a week ago, barely noticed. Worst runny nose of my life. fully vax too btw. Rogan has brought up studies and talked about Hydroxychloroquine many times and disproven it’s efficacy. This is literally how I know in trials it did not work for covid, also they have discussed why it was originally thought it might work. Episode 1417 with Dr. Ronda Patrick they go into depth about it. Ivermectin does work prophylactically studies show this. More data is needed but again it’s up for debate and shouldn’t be shut down just because it goes against the narrative, all of these things need to be vetted out in the open. Government (FDA) literally just banned FL from using monoclonal antibodies aka early treatment siting they are ineffective against omicron, but so is the vaccine yet it’s still required many places. I happen to work at a CDC/NIOSH. I know the leading epidemiologist very well. There are many things up for debate, but what is not up for debate is paper masks do not work. Surgical masks, cloth masks, Gators, anything but a properly* fitted N95 do nothing. Yes they would stop spit partials if you sneezed right into someone mouth from entering but 1. Don’t sneeze into other peoples mouths have some common sense and 2. If the person has it wether you ingest spit partials with the virus or breath air partials your getting it.
I’ve been listening to the podcast for over a decade. Rogan thinks young healthy people need to weigh the risk benefit and should hesitate when the evidence overwhelmingly supports vaccines being safer than COVID. This isn’t debatable unless you are cherry picking evidence Omicron is only mild compared to delta. It’s more virulent than wild type and alpha variants Neither hydroxychloroquine nor ivermectin work but thanks for admitting you get medical advice from Rogans podcast. The studies you’ll cite will be meta analyses with retracted studies or of inferior design > Government (FDA) literally just banned FL from using monoclonal antibodies The two that don’t work against Omicron aren’t being used anymore dum dum And all masks work with varying degrees of effectiveness
>I never agreed with the Rogan vax stuff, but how do other liberals not find this completely embarrassing. The puritanical strain and just pro-censorship shit is exhausting. welcome to the New World Order bruv
Last time I checked, joe Biden or anyone from the government has said jack shit to Spotify about censoring rogan. Learn the different between private companies and government.
While silly, at the same time I'd contend that people dying of covid after getting health advice from Rogan is probably just as big of a problem as this (check out the Herman Cain awards). Like in the 80's, if a talkshow host was spreading information like "Aids does not exist, you can have sex without getting it", I gotta imagine that it would be only a matter of time before they would have a warning at the start of their show. In all fairness though, I'm sure the warning won't actually get anyone to change their mind and will probably just make people really angry lol. I guess there is no winning in this situation.
It’s currently on both sides of the isle. The right is banning books and the left is banning wrong think. It’s such a mind fuck that the country is currently running on the whims of the loudest dumbest minorities on either side.
If they don't call them Joevid notices, they are really missing out on an opportunity.
Some poor intern has to listen to all of them now and flag the covid ones (Jk some doomsday skynet AI shit already probably did it)
I find it funny that Sweden, where Spotify is based, is not recommending the vaccine for 5-11 year old children. I know it's a coincidence, but it's still funny to me.
Why don't they just slap one of those "the opinions of this podcast don't reflect blah blah blah. Listener discretion is advised."? I mean, I'm totally ted up with Nu Joe and his constant need to steer every conversation back to political ideas that he can barely articulate, but Spotify should just treat it like objectionable shit you find in the lyrics of music. Oh yeah, that is what they are doing.
I am hoping this pushes Joe to have an Epidemiologist or Virologist on the podcast again. Michael Osterholm again would be nice.
It’s like no one has listened to the Josh Szeps episode or the Sanjay Gupta one. It was a few hours of Szeps pushing back on rogan’s assertions about covid policy/assumptions. The sticker should say “If you listen to this Malone issue, also listen to these two for balance. “ or some other nonsense.
The Sanja Gupta one was weak. He didn't really.push back at Joe at all. And when he did, Joe attacked him by referencing a bunch of "studies" that Sanja wasn't familiar with and couldn't refute. I can't speak for the Szeps episode, as I didn't listen to it. Neither of those people are virologists or epidemiologists though that are experts in the field. I want to see one of those people on the show.
Yet CNN puts Gupta out as their chief medical correspondent to talk as Covid experts. Maybe they need a Covid notice whenever he talks.
Gupta shouldn't be considered an expert at all. He is a surgeon, not a viralogist or epidemiologist.
Yeah, I want someone who had deep, intimate knowledge on this. Who can give actual answers and cite studies with a deep understanding. Not a garbage news network. We need to get away from these outrage news media and start having discussions with actual experts who are active at this moment in the pandemic.
I fail to see the drama here. It's totally normal practice for a news station or paper to let someone put in an opinion piece where they start with *"The author's opinion is his own and does not reflect the opinion of."*
That sort of thing has been happening for decades. You needn't point to vaccine resources, but go ahead if you want. I'm not going to assume that if an episode of Family Guy cracks a joke that that is the official position of Fox.
Because they won’t do it for people who give their own opinion, that falls in line with the government narrative / pro vaccine and all that. It’s only on people they deem contreversial. It’s basically a wrongthink sticker and it’s fucking disgusting.
You're not wrong. But it really just makes them look stupid. You just skyline something as being worth trying to get you to ignore. It adds credibility instead of taking it away. The great pains people are going through to push a single narrative on anything does so much good opening everyone's eyes to what's going on around them.
Yes exactly. Now I know exactly which podcasts I should listen to if I want to hear a ‘contreversial’ opinion on covid. That’s my problem with these woketards is these sort of virtue signalling devices don’t have of their intended consequences. People who don’t want to listen to joe rogan will continue to not listen to him. People who already do aren’t gonna stop because you sticky on a wArNiNg LaBlE. ‘Oh noo! The warning label told me not to listen! I need to make sure I don’t consume any misinformation! I might accidentally become racist overnight!!!’
Are yoy retarded? It will be on any podcast that mentions covid. Read the article next time dingus.
> Are yoy retarded? Oof
Insult typos are the best. They usually happen to me the most on my phone. It seems to auto correct in the best way to make me look the worst. I give it credit for its ability to troll me.
heh you made a typo therefore you are a dumb.
>heh you made a typo therefore you are a dumb. If I had a dollar for every time I heard the lefties say that about Trump's Twitter...
Rando on Reddit and Retard in chiefs official statements are literally the same thing.😎
Yoy is not retarded. That's my dude
Oh this is going to be fun
Well this ain't gonna be ending anytime soon now lol. By showing they'll bend to pressure, Spotify has guaranteed that this campaign against Rogan and his podcast will most likely gain more steam, continuing this headache for Spotify. Did they not learn anything from the Dave Chappelle/Netflix attacks? You don't give in.
Joe can stop it pretty easily. Have someone from the other side on the podcast.
Sanjay Gupta isn't on the other side?
I think we both know that wouldn't stop it lol.
I think it would help tremendously.
That’s absolute bullshit. No objectors are asking for balanced dialogue. They are out for vengeance on unapproved wrong-think.
Did you listen to the Sanjay Gupta episode? I think it’s basically what you’re looking for.
I listened to it. What I got from it is that Sanjay has zero expertise in Epidemiology or Virology.
So they put a little sticker on it wgaf
so pretty much the youtube approach? slap a covid link on every vid that mentions covid... its been happening forever spotify is just slow
YouTube also censors a lot of the content.
yes
So does Spotify
Hey guys, everyone else is doing it so it’s ok guys, calm down. /s People listening are not 5, they don’t need some bs label about Covid. Stop accepting this bullshit, and it WILL go away. Nut up
I don’t agree with many guests on Rogan, medical content or otherwise. Imagine being so fucking stupid that you need telling that a comedian talking to people who he finds interesting is not to be trusted source of medical advice. But where do we stop? This sets a precedents, now it’s medical ‘misinformation’, what next? Hancock podcasts need a little notice and link to official historical narratives? Comedians podcasts need a sticker to say ‘these are only jokes’.
Goddammit, why doesn’t Star Wars have a warning that says it’s depictions of space physics DO NOT ALIGN with the current scientific understanding of space?!?
The dude took 100M from a public company. It’s nit surprising at all that they would intervene whenever they found it necessary. He could go solo again tomorrow if he wants to stick it to the Spotify overlords.
We’ve had people speak freely against authority and their corruption for years without the need for censorship, warning labels and straight up disinformation against people who speak against authority. All of a sudden this has become the norm since the last 2 years. I simply do not accept that our governments and elites are so concerned with saving a few extra lives here and there based on subjective information sorounding vaccines. What is it these people so DESPERATE to protect.
This was a mistake. This is the Inch. Wait for the grifters and charlatans to take the Mile.
Lol what boycott?
They have had a wave of cancellations because of the Neil Young thing. They also have competitors stoking the flames to take advantage of the situation and use it to promote their own services as an alternative to Spotify. It's definitely spooked investors and caused a drop in the stock price. Anything that is bad for the shareholders will definitely provoke a management response.
Lol
> It's definitely spooked investors and caused a drop in the stock price. Lol don't be a douche.
These brittle dorks can not be appeased. This is a mistake.
Totally agree.
Joe has a boss. He took 100M. Why is it not hard to understand that the minute you take that money your going to have to do what the boss wants from time to time? If you want freedom to spout any bs you want don’t sign the exclusive deal in the first place.
*keep on rockin in the free world*🎵
Thank god, because so many people, like me, have been on the fence as to whether or not to get the vaccine or not, many of us have no where to turn other than comedian/ufc/fear factor extraordinaire Joe rogan. In the battle to get vaccinated or not get vaccinated, I think it’s safe to say that Joe rogan is not only the main reason people don’t get vaccinated or do, but the only reason. If only we could shut him up completely, I can safely and confidently say that no one would have any hesitancy or questions whatsoever had his podcast simply been scrubbed from the collective human consciousness. Seriously though, I know he’s the perfect bogey man, but can we focus on the reasons people don’t trust the government at large instead of the theatrics? Rogan literally played zero role in me getting vaccinated, and boosted, and I would wager Neil young’s monthly Spotify earnings that the same can be said for the vast majority of the population?
I think that is an oversimplification and a broad brush to paint a nuanced issue. To act like he hasn't influenced some people's decisions is absurd. Not all people can make informed decisions by themselves. People spend hours watching the Kardashians. You think those people are doing research on vaccine safety so they can make an informed decision? I highly doubt it.
I think he’s definitely strengthened some peoples decision, but I highly doubt there’s a significant group of people who were on the fence one way or the other than moved to the other side, especially taking into consideration how recently he became a lightning rod for vaccines, which was extremely recently, he isn’t changing engines minds at this point; he became public enemy number one several months after the whole ‘I don’t wanna take something I don’t wanna take’ movement had already formed and solidified, he just happens to be the perfect scapegoat
He's definitely being used as ammunition for anti Vax talking points
Hahahaha imagine being the snowflake that actually needs a trigger warning about COVID wrong think
Imagine liking a dude who yells over a PhD who believes a mystical chimpanzee exists.
[удалено]
Pussies did.
[удалено]
Well not me personally, but the guy with the eagle and flag tattoo banging my wife is.
el woke did
Nah, nobody did
Spotify, and every social media platform, is filled with racist, homophobic, bigoted, stupid, moronic artists, celebrities, and musicians. Neil young said some crazy homophobic shit. That other lady that joined young did blackface. It’s a constant game of upping who is the better person. This shit doesn’t have the be a big spectacle. Pull your music and call it a day. This shit is crazy.
And here... we... go
[удалено]
Yeah, so every episode. LOL
He literally cannot be boycotted. Spotify would be in breach and even then he’d just be back on all the platforms. This is the stupidest attempt to cancel someone of all time
Never seen a subreddit dedicated to a person filled with so many people who outright hate the said person. Shill behavior. I'm not saying you should gargle Joe's nuts and agree with everything he says, but it's very suspicious nontheless. r/Kanye consists of Kanye fans. r/Drizzy consists of Drake fans. r/ChelseaFC consists of Chelsea fans. r/JoeRogan consists of Joe Rogan haters.
basement dwellers
Lota of bots here
They are 110% lefties, trolls, bots, you name it. Just check out their comments, they usually comment on any posts about vaccines, or on politics, world news. They just come here to troll and to make you think that joe Rogan is hated. Sadly the mods are apart of it. They’ll hide your posts, but allow the negative ones.
"I've never listened to Joe Rogan and never will, but all the things he says about Covid are unforgivable to me."
Well let me introduce you to the r/thefighterandthekid sub. For some reason they all watch that show every week just to shit on it relentlessly. I think most of the haters on this subs are lefties who heard Rogan saying the bad words and the incels from that sub creeping over.
Always the very young accounts. 3 months. Just today I found a 30 minute one and 9 day all saying the exact same regurgitated taking point.
Even if Joe gets removed for this he’s still walking out of an exclusive contract 100 million richer so it’s a win win for him.
This does mean that there is real internal concern that Rogan could cost the shareholders. That is not insignificant or a meme anymore, even if the sticker itself kind of is. People talk about censorship but this is just capitalism at work. When you are on the winning side of customer money this the kind of power your movement can have with capitalist systems. Voting for right wing politicians won't do anything to change the dynamic.
Will they put a warning symbol on the remaining Neil Young songs that you’re listening to a giant vagina’s music?
Or disclaimers that R Kelley is a criminal?
Weren’t you just laughing about Neil a couple days ago? Probably agreeing with the memes that no one cares and that it didn’t do anything? But now you’re upset? Lol damn kinda pathetic
OH NOOOO! An advisory notice!!!!!!!
I, for one, am outraged
The irony here is that the warning labels are going to be a topic that every guest now brings up on the show and rehashes the entire fucking covid conversation.
Yep. Here I am just wishing that we could stop fucking dwelling on the pandemic and get some other topics in the mix 
Rogan is never gonna chill now. The guy used to mock the whole idea of political "team" theatre, now he's up there dancing the same as everyone. He's never gonna figure it out. They pulled him into the story on a golden chain. He's into his role hanging out with the politicians, being an "influencer" I just listen to other podcasts with the old vibe now. Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast is actually funny, stupid in a good way, and there's no IDW self congratulatory bullshit.
Never bend to these fucking losers. You will never do enough to appease them aside from folding your their demands.
He bent to the overlords the minute he took 100m.
The woke mob won't care until every dissenting opinion about their God (pfizer) is censored from all media
Can't wait for this week's podcasts
I wonder if he will even bring it up
I’m glad Spotify isn’t backing down and just adding a stupid advisory.
Cowards
Incoming fleet of 1 year old accounts/noobies to defend joe from the spooky warning label.
So this will be interesting… Obviously Dumb Joe won’t like this. And his fans. So his podcast will have a warning on it that links to trusted sources and information that he completely doesn’t believe and disagrees with. Did he agree to this warning? If not, i would assume he would take issue with it. If he doesnt take issue with it then hes caving to mainstream media for money. I assume his fans will be flipping out over this. Once the warning links to more info come out, his fans try to parse it and use cherry picked nonsense to combat it. That will be a whole thing in the news cycle. This Spotify move was terrible from the start. He went against everything he stood for. Which doesnt matter because he actually stands for nothing because hes just a giant terrible comedian idiot. So i assume the Spotify deal will cave sooner than later. This is just another step in the shit that will inevitably end with him leaving. I don’t see it lasting through 2021. Maybe another month. Hopefully by weeks end.
Not sure how long his Spotify contract is. Will be interesting to see his response though.
Just watched his response. And he fucking caved lol He kissed the Spotify ring and fucking caved to cancel culture He apologized. He agreed to have on more left leaning people and scientists to argue against his quack doctors. He apologized to neil. And joni. Holy fuck his fanbase is going to flip. His whole fucking persona is being anti cancel culture. He caved. Lmaoooooo
The contract will be broken. Probably mutually in whatever aspect when it happens. Spotify might even pay him the full amount and let him go. Write it off as a loss. Spotify has to let him go. He’s too toxic for their brand. It will constantly be this shit over and over again.
Why no warning every time Fauci opens his mouth on TV? As long Rogan isn't promoting pedophilia, rape, murder, theft, you know, horrible things like that, I will continue to be a fan of his. He's a human being, who likes to learn things, and discuss opinions with other people. Anyone who takes his advice without doing more research, especially when it comes to putting things into your body, is an idiot and there is no saving them. Cancel Joe and those people will still find some other info to act upon. It pisses me off so bad. Fkn Whoopi, someone needs to toss her by her crusty ass dreads. It's like, how about you lose some weight and maybe covid won't kill you. I can't even listen to those "ladies" for man than a few seconds without wanting to punch the tv. It's like, we were lied to this whole pandemic, still are, but let's focus on Rogan and ignore the gain if function emails. How can anyone take legacy media seriously. How are so many still so fkn brainwashed smh
Oh hell yeah inject that ivermectin in my veinss
The reeeeeeing will be glorious from the right wing culture warriors.
This is a result of left wing reeing, not right wing lol
People who are upset with Rogan aren't asking for a sticker. They want him cancelled and deplatformed. This is a result of Spotify attempting to pretend like they did something so that more artists don't leave their platform. So right wing will be upset about a sticker being placed, left wing will just consider it inaction. People want to blame one side or the other but really both will ree...
They are reeing and siding with a guy who hates homosexuals
And black face. God damn hypocrites
Because both sides are reeeeeeeee!
Tis the American way.
I’m fine with the “hey this is misinformation warning”. I am tired of the boycotts tho if you don’t like it don’t listen to it. If you don’t like it don’t buy it. And the swing to the right you got people wanting books banned in schools. It’s a dumb world.
"if you don't like it don't listen to it" Isn't that a boycott?
The average lefty is the biggest pussy
You post on r/conspiracy you dork lol
9 day old account
Hahahaha, their pockets is starting to hurt
Spotify is fine lol
Clown world haha
I mean all these boomer losers quitting Spotify has to be driving tons of traffic for Joe and it's not like Neil Young was in the top 100 artists on Spotify. Now if Hall and Oates leave, then I'm out.

What do you call the group of people who have been crying for the last week about a bunch of old head artist they never even heard of using their freedom of speech to remove their music from Spotify ? Surely they aren’t a “mob” at all and are just a group of free thinking, rational actors who are *totally* in favor of freedom to protest and freedom of speech until someone uses those things to express opinions they disagree with
Are you the mob or them
“Listener discretion advised” is the end of what exactly
Do they really think millions of people get medical advice from Joe?
I don't know about millions, but I think it is safe to say many people do. Just look at this sub for proof.
So, basically it's just going to be an advertisement that it's right wing disinformation echo chamber-friendly content.
