    Patriot J said that if tech platforms really wanted to ban “hatred,” most mainstream rap songs would have to be banned as well.“The ban just shines a spotlight on how far Big Tech is willing to take their censorship of dissenting views,” “Spotify and SoundCloud don’t actually care about allegedly ‘hateful’ or ‘violent’ songs being on their platform, because if that were the case, they’d have taken down almost all of the popular rap songs on their platforms.”

    “We were silenced for being brave enough to go against the radical left agenda, and now we’re paying the price. Just another day in Joe Biden’s America!”

    It's still hate speech.

    Spotify can play what it wants .You mean offensive speech. Speech is words . There is no constitutional protected from getting offended .Such justifications as banning "hate speech " leads to book burning and other acts of violence. .

    It also leads to discrimination, segregation, suppression, oppression and chaos from misinformation, lies and confusion.

    AOC strikes again. "The criminalization and banning of cannabis is an instrument of racist and colonial policy," This after a young black female athlete was suspended for a month after testing positive for pot use. Just amazing how virtually everything now is a racist event for her. What's next, the, "criminalization and banning of driving a car 90 mph in a school zone is an instrument of racist and colonial policy???"

    AOC is correct in that the so called war on drugs has systematically, INTENTIONALLY adversely affected minorities more than the real sellers and makers which doesn't excuse the usage by Richardson as a star athlete. Denying racism and inequality doesn't exists to help bash your favorite liberal though is not lost, and shameful.
