Neil Young tells Spotify it can’t have both him and Joe Rogan anymore

Just the one's I know about is the whole 'Southern Man' song controversy, then another one is when Trump purchased the rights to play "Rocking in the free world" for announcing his run for presidency and Young first claimed that Trump did it without permission and then when confronted about that statement avoided it like a weasel saying "everybody can use it if they like it", and now this.
If you don't want to be on a platform don't be there, just leave quietly instead of trying to garner attention for yourself by jumping on the hating Rogan bandwagon.
Having opinions != virtue signalling. Some people do in fact believe the views they present in their art. And it's not like Neil Young has recently jumped on the bandwagon, he's been at it for 50+ years!
And you can have your opinions quietly instead of standing on the rooftops and tooting songs in your own name. If people find out that someone, say, does charity work that speaks a lot more powerfully than someone that does a photo-op and then advertises to everyone what a truly generous person there is. So which out of these is having opinions, which is virtue signalling, and to which column does Mr Neil Young apply to?
Well I heard ol' Neil put him down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
Spotify don't need him around anyhow
