    What was the point of bringing up in a discussion of censorship that Spotify is adding content?

    I still don't understand your comment. The thread is about Spotify and Joe Rogan. Now Spotify has decided to add something to its platform that wasn't there previously. That makes it on topic. The fact that it is highly likely that Spotify is adding this feature to its platform because of the Joe Rogan issue makes it extremely on topic.

    Fair enough but that doesn’t have anything to do with whether Rogan is being censored or his free speech rights being suppressed

    Every time I read an article you post I become more convinced you don’t read them.

    Covid activists? More like truth activists.

    that would be your problem or hangup. I don't see that as a problem. This is a thread on a recreational basketball forum. Perhaps you are suggesting that I should not post in a thread that I started? the good news is you have no ability to censor me. The bad news is that I will likely continue (unintentionally to be sure) to irritate you with my posting habits. I apologize in advance for that. ;)

    the good news is that I do read them but the even better news is I don't care one iota about your reaction to them. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news there for you.

    although I suppose a more precise formulation might have been "covid risk aversion" activists.

    I haven’t said you should be censored. If you think I have I would like to see what your basing that on. in fact just the other day I defended a poster I frequently disagree with.

    As I said I have no animosity towards you and if I thought your posts were irritating or of no value I wouldn’t respond. As I’ve said I have none on ignore but don’t bother responding to most post.

    I find it more telling that you find me Making an observation regarding the relevance of your post as an attempt at censorship. That shows far more how skewed your view of censorship.

    I was basically teasing and trying to have a little fun with you. I've tried that with @Deckard in the past and forgot where that got me with him. I apologize again.

    No problem. And please Don’t tease @Deckard. I don’t know where I would get stories about seducing women with owls if he were to not post anymore

    You evidently don't understand a lot.

    Gosh, have I hurt your feelings to such an extent that you're lugging my moniker around with your own, @Os Trigonum? You're acting like a kid in middle school. You know as well as I do that this forum was created by @Clutch in order to keep politics and other controversial topics out of the GARM, the other basketball forums, as well as forums like Hangout.

    Apparently you don't think the rules against posting political images and gifs anywhere but here apply to you. I asked you to do us all a favor and cut it out, but you were having too much "fun." It's absurd that I had to put you and @Salvy, foolishly following your lead, on ignore in order to enjoy the game thread. The alternative would have been reporting you multiple times, which I'm not going to do.

    classifying wrongthink as misinformation so you can silence it is straight out of 1984

    hey, welcome back! I thought you had perma-banned me. I can stop lugging your moniker around if that will make you feel better

    Kind of like all of the books being removed from school libraries or curriculums?

    It’s not surprising the people that brought us “alternate facts” and “fake news” are mangling Big Brother references.
