It's unethical to publish content that promotes white supremacists, even indirectly. Don't see how it's unethical to censor it though


> It's unethical to publish content that promotes white supremacists

I dont understand how you can come to that conclusion. eg A doctor saving the life of a white supremacist.

Ethics are differentiated by profession. It is not altigether clear, which ethical considerations Spotify is bound by and apply to this situation.


You think a doctor saving the life of a white supremacist is the same as publishing content that promotes white supremacy? Huh, I guess that's certainly one way to understand the world


> You think a doctor saving the life of a white supremacist is the same as publishing content that promotes white supremacy?

I do not. That assertion is unrelated to the topic, so Im not sure why you imagined it.

To be clear, I have implied the consequences are equal or, worse, probably multiplicative...in the context of the theoretical consideration you posited.

> It's unethical to publish content that promotes white supremacists

Again, how does this relate to any ethics that applies to Spotify?


You are a poor communicator. When did you first ask how my quote relates to Spotify? Why did you post an unrelated hypothetical under my comment?


Rogan has never promoted white supremacists. That is slander by the media.
