Someone needs attention.

maybe this thread should be moved to 'religion and politics' or something.

oh wait a minute, i've just now noticed that forum is gone!

has it been gone since a long time?

it certainly explains a lot of things that have been spilling into the other forums

I hadn't seen that yet (I'd searched for clues in the site discussion forum ) so thank you for the link. I have some reading to do then!

I’m not sure this is the right location, and I never post here (though I do check for updates almost daily) We know (no matter your opinion) Prince chose Tidal, though he did try out “Stare” as a Spotify single. That said, Neil Young is right. He echos things Prince talked about in his lifetime. Now, Prince’s musical hero Joni Mitchell has taken the same stand! Rogan is part of the problem, but the entity hosting and endorsing him is responsible too, and that’s Spotify. I think I recall Spotify purchasing streaming rights to Prince music (not sure of the specifics), but… shame on them. It’s not just about the bottom line of how much money Rogan makes them. Prince Estate, honor Prince’s legacy, take Prince music off Spotify!

Rogan is part of what problem exactly? Who gets to decide what constitutes fact or fiction? The pharma industry, the politicians, the media, the musicians? Why can't the public make up their own minds, rather than being patronized by thought police? The fact that neither Rogan, nor Dr. Malone, have tried to pressure Spotify in a similar way, is saying a lot...

People cancelling their Spotify accounts and artists removing their music, aren't doing so because Spotify are hosting the podcast. They are doing so because spotify paid him $100 million. Subscribers are upset that their money is being used to pay for this.

I'm sure Prince would have had something to say about it. Regardless on whether or not he was antivax, he would certainly have an opinion on Spotify paying someone $100 million when that someone wasn't a musician.

If you think Rogan is part of the problem (w.r.t. his COVID remarks) you are too indoctrinated to even make a proper judgement.

These experimental substances have more side effects and cause more deaths than all previous real vaccines combined and authorities refuse to act.

They suppress alternative, off-label, medications becaause these hurt their bank account.

They are diabolical because of the amount of deaths involved.

This has nothing to do with health care anymore.

And you believe the official narrative, still?

You must be part of the great reset (not to be confused with the big reset, a strictly monetary event).

Great argumentation, thank you kindly for that.

Great arguments.

Great display of yourself as someone that believes whatever is told by the government.

That does not think by themselves.

That does not care about their body.

That does not know about their body.

Etc.

.

Of course you will argue that some of those are not true in your case but you already set the tone and painted the picture.

.

COVID, especially the way it is 'treated' by the governments smells of one big scam.

They only see 'vaccinations' (i.e.: injections with experimental substances) as a solution.

They suppress alternative solutions and info about those.

They suppress bad news, statistics about the experimental substances.

They doctor statistics about COVID related stuff.

This could be because of the contracts these governments signed with the producers of these experimental substances.

This would make the source of the diabolical approach more of a big pharma thing than a government thing.

.

How else does one explain the 'cartel' like operation of government entities and big pharma?

.

All this is no reason for non governmental entities like you and spotify to be critical about differing opinions about how to cure COVID.

Still you feel like the cancel-happy fake leftist that needs that as a reason for existence.

.

The great die-off is in progress. Cancer is up amoung `vaccinated` military.

When will you realize what happened?

When people balk at $100 million (USD) they do not understand capitalism at this time and age.

A million is not so much anymore.

You all will be millionaires soon but I could be there faster.

Of course voting with the feet is the best option, so good for you.

.

And $100K per episode is reasonable if he has to bear costs from that money.

What did Prince ask per show?

Why didn't you balk then?

“MENTICIDE is an old crime against the human mind and spirit but systematized anew. It is an organized system of psychological intervention and judicial perversion through which a RULING CLASS can imprint their own opportunistic thoughts upon the minds of those they plan to use and destroy...

...Fear, and continual pressure are known to create a menticidal HYPNOSIS. The conscious part of the personality no longer takes part in the automatic confessions. The brainwashee lives in a trance, repeating the record grooved into him by somebody else... ...Modern technology teaches man to take for granted the world he is looking at; he takes no time to retreat and reflect. Technology lures him on, dropping him into its wheels and movements. No rest, no meditation, no reflection, no conversation, the senses are continually overloaded with stimuli. Man doesn’t learn to question his world anymore; the screen offers him answers ready-made..."

Sadly, we don’t know for sure Prince would have been against Rogan’s stance. Especially in his later years he was prone to conspiracy theories and “alternative facts”. It’s not difficult to imagine Prince would have been against the vaccine himself.

Sadly this is an imaginable scenario.

Thank you for reminding me why I stopped coming here.

This is why put songs on my phone.

I don't think Prince would have been against the vaccine itself. I see Prince being against the vaccine mandates.

Had Prince been alive in 2020/2021, and still touring, he would have really felt the sting of canceled concerts as that was a huge source of income for him. Hard to say if he'd institute mandates and his own concerts.

I didn't mean to offend you. Your post just makes me quite sad.

But I respect that we have different views so I'm not going to try and change your mind or say
that you are wrong or I am right. We just have different views on these things.

And I guess it sounds very patronising to say that reading yours makes me sad, but that is the
simple reality of it.

. This is a great post. I’m always heartened by the occasional appearance of a voice of reason on a message board so often dominated by insufferable sycophants.

Knowing Prince, we would never have found out if he took the vaccine or not. Similarly, there'd be no way of knowing if he agreed with Rogan's stance, unless he had said something in interview indirectly agreeing with him. As he only seemed to namedrop the names of black people he agreed with.

Don't worry. udo makes everyone sad around here. He's the org's unofficial jester, just happens to be one that doesn't tell jokes.

What is making you sad about:

'Great argumentation, thank you kindly for that.' ?

- I praise you

- I thank you

- nothing more

.

Perhaps it would have been better to write some English.

If you can explain why that was, please?

In the other posts I simply posted truth.

Truth that cannot be new at this time.

So why the brouha?
