I think it's a very small minority, but none the less very loud because the news always picks up on this.
We have to keep pushing back on this. "I am offended that you don't respect someone elses opinion" ;)

What does "freedom of speech" have to do with any of this? The government has not intervened with any law restricting speech. Spotify is a private company and, under current US law, can de-platform anyone they chose.

Freedom of speech is a principal first and an American law second.
Freedom of speech and expression is the bedrock of the civilized world, an important part of modern culture and is indeed defined as a human right in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

I don't understand what you mean. What's the issue with someone voicing an opinion you don't agree with?
Diversity is good because you get many opinions from many perspectives. It fails once you start selectively picking and choosing which ones you deem worthy.
It baffles me when people think it's acceptable to throw freedom of speech out the window just because someone is offended.
