Spotify and now Netflix? How about we stop giving obscene amounts of money to an obscenely hateful idiot?

At best it's pandering to the lowest common denominator, at worst it's nefarious work to spread disinformation.

It's neither. It's dumber, and it's more repulsive: outrage pays. He's literally selling rage to the hateful. And he knows he's doing it. Same as Alex Jones, Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Jesse Watters, etc.
