Uh oh -- Harry and Meghan have weighed in and implored Spotify to stop spreading "misinformation." They're SURE to crumble now!

Seriously, the guy is one of the most mild-mannered, ideologically non-committed dudes out there who makes no attempt to be deliberately edgy or provocative. Yet he's still the Satan of the podcast universe for some stupid reason. It's absolutely bizarre how much of a lightning rod he has become

I guess Neil doesn't want people to think and listen to different points of views and let them choose about their own bodies. Neil only wants people to get their information and marching orders from the government and their hacks.


Neil is such a clown. A hippie that talks like a fed.

So free thinking is the new term politically correct weasel words for conspiracy theory, interesting...

He probably has the most popular podcast. Most of his podcasts aren't that great (it's just him and his no-name guests rambling about trivial stuff) but he's had a few good ones, notably the ones with H.R. McMaster and Neil de Grasse Tyson. He's had a bunch of kooky guests over the years that he indulges, including a guy who believed that Africans were in the New World prior to Columbus, so his kooky guest list isn't restricted to anti-vaxxers.

These artists should remove their music from youtube. Lots of conspiracy types and "mis-information" there, people who think the government is targeting them with white cars and sending telepathic messages from lasers to their skulls. Lots of people pushing snake oil products and falsifying information using photoshopped images, etc. Let's not get into the animal abuse.

I guess that is all ok but J Rogan is the devil.

He knows how to entertain the simple.

Whether is drama these days or feeding people sheep balls years back.

First Neil Young and Joni Mitchell both Canadians try 'lecture' Spotify and "misinformation" now another foreigner or two are lecturing Spotify. Megan Markle and Harry want Spotify to do something about "misinformation".

But they won't pull their content

Communists. Neil and anyone of these other losers need to shut up and do their job. Just be a minstrel and entertain us. I don’t go to Burger King to hear the kid taking my order ramble on about politics. Shut up and give me my burger. These commie Karen “celebrities” need to just shut up. Ignore them.

YouTube isn't paying those plus to be a part of their platform. They could also face demonitization, video removal or banning depending where along the discipline matrix the offense is or the channel is. And mind you, I have seen demonitization for videos that are simply going over both sides of the controversy and not nessicarily supporting the conspiracy theory.

Then there is the issue of YouTube being "unfair to conservatives" not to the level of Facebook or Reddit, but it has gotten flack especially with InfoWars videos and controversial COVID views. To combat this, YouTube at the least demonitizes the videos related to controversial topics. Mind you, it was never limited to just COVID. Lots of times Philip DeFranco had videos demonitized despite not being in favor of the conspiracy theories or controversial topics in question, he just reported on them and had the platform for a conversation.

Simply put, what you are asking for is for YouTube to have it both ways... You simply cannot.
