The musicians I’m referring have also suffered at the hands of the Far Right
and also need to feed their families.
Your mileage may vary.
Okay. I’ll await the evidence of your effective opposition. That is: something that goes beyond gesture.
I’m not gesturing.
Personally speaking in real life
I’m associated with Antifascist
groups here in London.
Have been for over thirty years.
I have friends who actually fought
against Apartheid, you mentioned that earlier?
Some of them left South Africa and
had to live in exile because they feared assassination.
Friends who are using their music
to highlight the plight of the poor and oppressed in no less than five continents.
Do you know what’s happening in Brazil?
Of course you do.
Friends who are fighting for equality
and have had to physically fight
members of the Far Right and racist groups.
Friends who are fighting for
Women’s and LGBT+ rights.
Marches against Brexit and
for the People’s vote.
I could go on but I don’t want to bore you.
This is the tip of the iceberg.
You know real world stuff.
All musicians and Artists.
Many of them with their music on Spotify.
Quite a few of them are notable world class musicians and artists.
Why can I say this?
Because we fought and are still
having to fight this stuff and so do many other Artists and musicians who actually have ethics and are not fawning over a poster pinup.
Who coincidentally also have to feed their families.
Standing up for this stuff has taken me to four different continents and 18 different countries.
My mileage is consistent.
We don’t click.
We act.
As to provided proof for you?
I don’t need to.
My actions in the real world
speak for themselves.
I’m not asking you to know me.
I don’t care about that.
I care about my fellow musicians
who’ve been taken for a ride.
What was that about not gesturing...? You sound like Batman, Mother Teresa and Che Guevara rolled in to one person
I’m trying to retire. 🙏🏾🙂
Good idea. A saint can only do so much
Agreed. 🙂
Still, when the call comes one must
stand up for what one believes
no matter what.

Your carbon footprint, on the other hand…
On a mountaintop, high above a large city, stands the headquarters of a man devoted to the cause of freedom and justice; a war hero who has never stopped fighting against his country's enemies; a private citizen who is dedicating his life to the struggle against evil men everywhere. Sainthood awaits.
@Simon :
LOL.
There is that.
Still, my conscience is clear.
I’ve done enough including
being on this forum.
Can’t see the point of being
on this forum anymore.
Ciao.
So much for robust debate, I guess.
What has changed to make you decide this?
He might just be having a bad day. Hopefully he will stick around.
Nope.
I’m having a really good day actually.
The weather is nice for this time of year.
I’ve been contemplating it for awhile.
This discussion reminded me why.
I shall be around until Christmas
and then I’m deleting my account.
I am going to leave the content
for what it’s worth.
I’ve still got a couple of students
so I’m honouring that purpose.
Apologies for interrupting
your robust discussion.
I see it’s going very well.
Have a nice day.
I hope so. The irony is that I don’t disagree with the objections to Spotify, (or indeed, the distaste for Mr Ek’s investment strategy) just question what effective action might look like… Greta Thunberg helped put the climate crisis on the political agenda, but she didn’t do it by rage quitting Facebook.
Here in the UK there is talk about the government introducing some kind of more equitable requirement on royalty share for streaming companies, so perhaps pressuring your local elected representatives might carry some weight. More than a rage quit from the company, anyway.
And I have my own scars from previous ‘culture wars’ fought out on the streets - I’m old enough to remember when Gay Pride marches were protests, not shopping opportunities, you got boo’ed and heckled by passers by, not cheered, and you had to be careful getting to and from the March and do it in groups, so you didn’t get jumped by skinheads.
War stories. I could tell a few, from my own Fortress of Solitude, high above the slumbering city.
But hey.
So, the lesson that we have learned here is that we should never try, because others will always oppose whatever you do?
Constructive discussion has a point.
I’m not angry.
That’s your imposition.
The U.K government simply wants to make money it won’t assist musicians at all.
It will indeed hinder an already devastated industry.
I remember those days very well.
I’m sure you remember that joint on Old Compton street that got bombed.
The Admiral??
Yup.
@jolico: nope. Lesson #1, if I may be so bold to refer to @Gravitas, is you don’t rage quit the debate the first time somebody says something you don’t like. At least, not if you want to make your case seriously.
Lesson #2, as I already said, several times, above, is you make what individual ethical stands you feel you must, and encourage and mobilise as many others as you can to rally to your cause, and pull on all available levers of lawful and if necessary, unlawful protest and commercial pressure to achieve your ends. The women of Greenham Common set an example there, and the economic boycotts of apartheid South Africa may have had some, at least symbolic, effect, too.
But you know what stands out about those examples? They were actually real things being really done in the real world, in the former case of the Greenham Women, at considerable physical, legal, and mental risk to the participants involved. You might also consider the role of Extinction Rebellion protesters at this point. Or, incidentally, Hainbach’s piece.
My initial objection to the OPs proposal was that it was a (fairly typical) social media passive aggressive invitation to an online gesture of collective disapproval of A Bad Thing. (Not, note, anything about Spotify’s iniquitous royalty system there, either, as the ‘debate’ subsequently turned to). In other words, an invitation to a virtual protest to a virtual thing, destined to have virtually no impact.
It irritated me in it’s superficiality. Given that any activist-inclined person out there only has so many hours in the day, and only so many causes they can invest time and energy getting behind, it seemed to me to be waaaaaay down the sh*tlist, and also, as I said, more than a little virtue-signally. My perception, I may be wrong. I often am. But that was what got me started.
And now we are where we are.
You boys need to read some history books.
All kinds of reform (good and bad) has happened over the last 100 or so years due to efforts by people like trade unions, gay rights supporters, anti war protesters, women's lib, gun rights supporters, pro/anti abortion or whoever.
Applying pressure to governments, business or other groups can be difficult but it is the proven way to start change*.
It’s said that you can effectively change evil government policies using Drambo, if you know what you’re doing…
Nope.
Had a parents evening.
Are you really that patronising?
Wow.
Proves my point.
Carry on lecturing doing nothing.

I’ll be sorry to see you go. Your contributions have always been valuable and well considered.
I may change my mind but
I’m tired of online debates that circle
round and round and achieve nothing.
Admittedly I stepped into this one
so I blame myself.
I have both FB and this forum as my
only online social media platforms.
I almost shut down my FB account
last year and was requested to remain
by my FB family which I did.
I’ve invested a lot of time into both.
FB more so but I need to invest time
into me.
I’ve deleted or am not using any of my others.
As mentioned thirty years is a long time
championing causes.
I feel sorry for Greta Thunberg and
the rest as they’re only just starting out.
At least when I started out we didn’t have the internet and “keyboard warriors”,
sniping at everything we do because
they didn’t think to try enabling the future
for themselves.
It’s good to stand up for something but
if you don’t then don’t hinder or belittle
the ones who do.
Keyboard warrior skills
could be put to better use.
For instance if I had had hacker skills I would’ve divested the CEO of Spotify
of said €100 million and placed the euros elsewhere where it would’ve been much more appreciated and useful.
The same with many other CEO’s that
have stupidly more money than their users.
Amazon comes to mind.
But I don’t have said skills.
The “you” isn’t singular to be clear.
There are good people on the form
otherwise I wouldn’t have stayed for
so long but they really should speak up more.
The iOS platform would be
more welcoming for it.
Now back to the debate.
Where were we.
Ah yes, €100 million and penniless musicians.
Is it still the same in regards to royalties?
$0.0045 per play?
We have a winner!
Like Hainbach...?
I genuinely don’t know Hainbach
and do you know something?
Sometimes it’s okay not to know.
He’s against the Far Right?
That’s all good in my book.
Keyboard warrior, huh? Try walking a mile in my shoes (heels, actually - you might find it tricky), mid transition, post surgery, feeling vulnerable, physically fragile, stitched, sore, then getting assaulted by three drunk men just for offending their sense of who is allowed to exist in the world.
Then do it the next day. And the next. And all the days after. With your head held high.
Then tell me how hard it is to boycott Spotify. Or to quit this forum.
You don’t have a monopoly on what constitutes living authentically, or fighting the power.
In the real world.
Amen
