Cancel Culture Gets Canceled: Platform Removes Rocker Who Demanded Talk Show Host Be Removed

Joe Rogan and Neil Young

(RightIsRight.co) – When hard-left rock star Neil Young threatened Spotify that it could either air his music or air Joe Rogan’s wildly popular podcast, Spotify had an answer.

Goodbye, Neil Young.

In all seriousness, did Young really think Spotify would side with him instead of Rogan, who Spotify pays millions to be the platform for his podcast? If so, he just learned a hard lesson.

As Breitbart reports:

“Spotify Technology S.A. says it will pull left-wing rocker Neil Young’s music from its platform, The Wall Street Journal reports. The reported move comes just days after Young demanded, in an open letter, that Spotify either remove his music or blacklist Joe Rogan and his popular podcast.

“‘We want all the world’s music and audio content to be available to Spotify users. With that comes great responsibility in balancing both safety for listeners and freedom for creators. We have detailed content policies in place and we’ve removed over 20,000 podcast episodes related to COVID since the start of the pandemic. We regret Neil’s decision to remove his music from Spotify, but hope to welcome him back soon,’ a Spotify spokesperson said in a statement.”

“In his letter, which Young posted and promptly removed from his website, the Grammy-winner told his management team and record label he believed Spotify was allowing the spread of ‘fake information about vaccines.’ Young proposed an ultimatum: ‘They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.’”

And with that, Spotify began yanking Neil Young’s music off its platform.

Game. Set. Match. Joe Rogan wins without ever saying a word about Young’s juvenile stunt.

For once, cancel culture got canceled.
