Spotify? Never heard of it. ;)

I find it absolutely comical that the lamestream media and their social media sycophants can even utter the words "dangerous misinformation" with a straight face. That is an all the time thing for them. They don't ever care if they get a story right, they care about getting a story first. And the first story is nearly always wrong and those rat bastards almost NEVER have ot answer for it.

Hopefully Kyle Rittenhouse sends those dirtbags to the poorhouse.

Neil said 60% of his streaming came from Spotify. I wonder 60% of how how much? I don't see hippies in their mid to late 70s drawing much of a new audience.

I went to see him back in the 80s. He played for a while and then brought out his band the Shocking Pinks and played rockabilly for the rest of the show. I have disliked him intensely since then.

So then spotify is to music streaming what facebook is to social media?  :lol:

I don't think the dudes who wrote that would think the President twisting the arm of a private company to do something forbidden to Congress is okey-dokey.

Expecting corporate responsibility in our society does sound kind of crazy doesn't it?  :o

And keep in mind, the people that are being accused of spreading "disinformation" were the ones sayin 2 years ago that lockdowns wouldn't work to slow Covid. They were telling us a year ago that cloth masks don't work. 8 months ago they said even if you're vaccinated you can still catch and pass the 'Rona.

Saying those things at those times would get you thrown off YouTube or Facebook.

Now we know they are all true. They were right. Why wouldn't the Biden administration look to people who were right instead of continuing to demand they be silenced?

LOL. corporate responsibility is great! I'm all for it. I just see the irony in somebody who says, there is no border crisis, that the Afghan withdrawal was a great success, that the high murder and crime rate is because of covid, (I could keep going) is talking about how corporations need to stop spreading misinformation, is just a little ridiculous. It's a little like the Don Corleone complaining about corruption and violence.

I think the dudes who wrote our constitution would be pretty disgusted with a lot of things going on in this country right now, in both the political and private sectors.

Sticking to the topic, if Biden signed an executive order declaring what Spotify could air it would be struck down by the courts pretty much immediately. I don't think there is anything at all wrong with the statement:

Quoteit was the responsibility of all companies and particularly that of those platforms where Americans get their news to "be responsible and be vigilant to ensure the American people have accurate information

Moving off the topic, IMO, if a doctor has proof that horse dewormer (or anything else) can cure Covid (or anything else) they should publish their results and see if other researchers can duplicate the results. I don't think that's unreasonable.
