Whats the truck thing about?

Rogan said Canada shut down because 50,000 truckers were protesting vaccine mandates. The 50k number was a bit of an overshoot.

But thereā€™s many more truckers on the way, from the Niagara Falls area. You donā€™t know them.

Not sure that this is true. As mentioned upthread, these people have amazingly bloated egos and itā€™s not just about the money for them. Getting caught in a bold faced lie impacted his darling status as Jeopardy! host and Iā€™d like to think he cared about that

Interesting only if youā€™re goal is vengeance against Spotify. No matter who or how many artists jump ship, Rogan will still be the most popular podcaster on the planet when the smoke clears. I just donā€™t see him being cancelled. His delivery of misinformation will continue unabated somewhere else

In case youā€™re wondering what these douchebags are up to

Interesting. Even Young went out of his way to make sure itā€™s understood that he supports free speech and isnā€™t in favor of censorship. Heā€™s just exercising his freedom not to support a company thatā€™s promulgating misinformation just as they have to the right to keep Rogan

I mean, ideally this is the way it would always work when companies get involved with idiots. Whether itā€™s advertisers on Fox News, getting cable companies to abandon Fox News, or getting Spotify to disown someone like Rogan. But policing misinformation while protecting free speech seems like a tricky business these days. Maybe Iā€™m wrong and itā€™s super easy?

My girlfriendā€™s dad is a Canadian trucker.

Realize this was misogynist and I change it to:

My Canadian girlfriend is a trucker.

In the wake of Youngā€™s departure from Spotify, Apple Music trolled its competitor, tweeting that it is ā€œthe home of Neil Youngā€ and releasing a playlist titled ā€œWe Love Neil."
