Rogan promoted the conspiracy theory that Epps was an “agent provocateur” for the feds, a baseless claim that has led to a defamation suit against Fox News.

Remember kids, if you use Spotify; your coins are going to this ass hat.

I actually cancelled my Spotify account over this ass hat.

They're taking people's love of music and using it to pay off a hate monger. The average payout for musicians has been declining for years.

This and lossless are 99% why I jumped ship to apple music. The other 1% is better artist payout.

Apple hosts Steve Bannon's podcast fyi

[-] ilickfrogs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The apple podcast app is free. Arguably funded by hardware sales of the devices it runs on. I don't have any of those.

I didn't say anything about their podcast app. How are you using apple music for free?

[-] ilickfrogs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You mentioned Steve Bannon... Apple music doesn't have podcasts...

[-] flucksy_bango@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It's a good thing that Apple podcasts and Apple music aren't intrinsically connected then, huh? They still platform him.

I don't really see the difference between this and Spotify, but whatever.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
