You realise they have some pretty vile artists on their platform too right? I mean if we're objecting to content here they've literally platformed homophobic and xenophobic music for years. Are we honestly arguing that having conversations critical of big pharma and public health policy is now worse than homophobic hate? The only reason this is being discussed by the media is because this time it's impacting the wrong people.



I disagree. It’s one thing to provide access to a ton of music. Yes there will be some objectionable stuff in there. They can decide to hide it or not. That’s passive.

It’s another thing to actively pay to _create_ such content. That’s the big issue here.
