It also doesn't mean that we all have to refuse him the platform to be an asshole.

Giving him the platform seems like exactly what Spotify wants to do, and since we all reached the consensus that private corporations are free to do whatever they want with their platforms, I don't understand what the issue is.

Either that or we could just stop being dishonest and admit that we just want to censor people we don't agree with.

Spotify can do what it wishes, and grandparent poster has said s/he disagrees with Spotify and doesn't wish to contribute to their profits while they're doing something s/he disagrees with. So, isn't that all good and dandy?

And if people start a campaign to tell people to "Delete Spotify", that seems to be in the realm of acceptability too? Just like people are saying "Delete Uber" because they're taking money from that Saudi "Journalist Chopper" Prince.

If the campaign is to get the government to create a law to muzzle Spotify, then there is an issue...
