    The enemy of my enemy is not my friend

    Andrew Tate is scum of the earth and Spotify should have dropped him, not the payment processors

    Again: payment processors should and must not be the ones deciding what is okay and what is not. Just because they did something accidentally right doesn’t make it a good thing

      It wasn’t the payment processors that got Andrew Tate off of Spotify, it was the actions of the activist group

        Ah, my bad, but the point still stands for those action groups. I do NOT need evil religious organizations telling me how to live my life. That goes without mentioning that the hypocrisy of those groups always infuriates me because in the name of Jesus/Allah/FSM it’s always okay to commit the most grievous sins, as long as you tell others that they’re evil.

          I agree with what you’ve said, but their (stated) mission is about fighting sexual violence against women.

          Regardless of what any religious text says, that sounds like a good thing to fight against. In practice, I think things have gotten a bit out of hand here.
