    So many Bro Jogans posting so many memes.

    They get so easily upset.


    Same could be said for the opposing side. People were posting graphs blaming joe for the stock decline the past week. Which couldn’t be further from the truth. But you know, if someone agrees they believe it without looking any further. Rogan fans and Neil fans are both acting like children over this. 
    I think Neil young fans are upset because, like him, they don't like a massive platform supporting someone who spreads misinformation and lies that kills people.

    Bro Jogan fans are upset that someone dare take a stand against the messiah.

    I don't see the both sides here.

    It's easy to understand why an artist wouldn't want their brand to be associated with Spotify. I don't think they should cancel Rogan, just take down the lies and misinformation. Start acting like a responsible company.

    I hope more artists grow a spine and follow suit. Looking at you PJ, and all my favorite bands.

    I agree.
    Sorry Nick, but if there are two sides to this issue, what it comes down to is people who are fed up with misinformation spread about a deadly virus or people who buy into that misinformation.  And Rogan should know better.  He interviewed Dr. Fauci very early on in the pandemic and seemed very concerned and focused on learning as much as possible about what we can do about it and now he's gone to the other extreme of bandying about these ridiculous myths. 
    And Young has not censured Rogan.  Rogan should censor is disgraceful self.

    What I think we are forgetting here is that Joe Rogan is an idiot. As in dumb. 

    But maybe people who listen, love and are in here defending him knows that.

    I doubt the large percentage of people listening to him though - over the 1000000000 other podcasts available - understands that he is very, very stupid.

    It’s not my job to explain the drop. People automatically think something is true if they agree. When they don’t agree, they all of a sudden know how to use google. You accused me of calling you stupid, something that never happened and then I apologized if I made you feel that way. You never responded. Get over it. My post wasn’t about YOU. Im sure you weren’t the only person who shared that tweet like it was fact.

    Thanks, Nick.  It's just sad that there even are differing views on this issue.  I suppose it's too much to wish everyone would support the most knowledgeable people in the fields of science and medicine who are working on managing this thing.  In a very short period of time, they were able to come up with vaccines that are very effective.  Many lived have already been saved.  So  I don't understand people who "side" with Rogan and are OK with him spreading false information.

    Do you follow the stock market? Are you well versed in the market? Have you followed the stock since it’s inception?

    All this talk about how little digital media pays artist, what about radio stations?  

    I know you're just trolling, but here I go anyway. Songwriters can make up to 12 cents per play on the radio if they also own their own publishing company; less if they don't.

    i, for one, do not give a shit about spotify's stock. i do not use the platform, and never will. 

    personally i kinda hope it tanks, given that they invested 100 million in rogan and the fact that it is not favorable to musicians at all, paying fractions of a cent per play.

    spotify is not a music company. they are trying to dominate the podcast market, and people are dropping it and going to apple for podcasts.

    if anybody supports spotify, they are supporting an organization that has the power to harm musicians.
