All the hippie who just wanted peace and freedom to live their life, sure have become communist authoritarians.

Again you are confusing the Tennesee curriculum ban of Maus from the Texas removal of books from the library. Both can legitimately use the word "ban" as long as there is concurrent text that explains the nature of each prohibition.
I think there is a fair argument in both cases on both sides as to the age appropriateness of the books. That is an age-old and I feel appropriate niche of the greater concept of censorship. That does then beg the question of who makes the decisions.
no different than maturity/age ratings. It's not like they banned the books from existence. They just banned them in schools because of age appropriateness.

No one is telling the people who are pulling their music that "they either stay or else!". Spotify and Rogan are absolutely being told "or else!".
You're trying to equate two things that are not the same.
While I haven't seen the "or else" verbiage used I don't care either way. If someone doesn't want to be a part of a companies revenue stream for any reason I feel it is their right. If it impacts the companies choices going forward so be it. I don't see a reasonable distinction from people choosing not to buy Yeti, Chick Fil A, Carhart, Gillette, Nike, Disney, or at Dicks.

Agreed on this.
But there is a difference between someone just choosing not to spend money somewhere and calling out for an all-out public boycott

I agree with this though the sticky issue is who makes those decisions. I personally think it should be done locally by people who have children in the particular school system currently, though I am torn between a representative or a democratic choice. Not having any children currently in school I don't spend much thought on it because it isn't my monkey nor is it my circus.

All that I mentioned have had pleas for boycotts otherwise I would not have been aware of them.

As mentioned I really don't care if the language is used as I feel it is someone's right however I also mentioned I haven't seen that language used. Not really putting you on the spot for a cite because again I think that is someone's right.
Multiple times over my career I have had clients come to me and say unless you or your firm releases another client then I am pulling my business. While frustrating and usually puts me in an awkward moral/financial situation I never once thought they shouldn't be able to do it.

Honestly, who uses Spotify anymore? Haven't used that in over 10 years. That and Pandora.
I use Sirius XM, Amazon Music, Podcast Addict and good old vinyl LP's.

Artists expressing their freeeom of speech to support of suppression of speech. Interesting.

Spotify’s CEO said that he won’t be censoring Joe Rogan’s content because the company sees itself as a distribution platform rather than a publisher.
Can he spread that mentality through the rest of Silicon Valley?
That’s all we’ve been trying to get them to understand.

And sadly our government is doing exactly that. Specifically doing that with this exact same situation by encouraging censorship of some of Rogan's stuff.

So the White House issuing a statement saying Spotify needs to do more in relation to censoring Rogan’s content is just a convenient work around then?

i've heard nba youngboy is furious that spotify is still allowing joe rogan to spew his alt-right, anti-vaxx misinformation propaganda
