Did I really see Louis CK used as a defense in the year of our lord two thousand and twenty-two?!?
And comedians been covering for the right to say dumb shh with zero consequences since forever
We learn a very simple and obvious lesson as children saying the wrong shh got consequences

It not just using the word elite
I find the framework of the argument faulty too

my bad, misunderstood.
By acceptable I mean, if you don't want bans, what else is their other than apologies and promises to not do it again?
my assumption is if you don't want bans I would assume this would be acceptable.
if it's not acceptable, than I assume what people really want is bans.
which I think is counter productive.

I did not defend louis ck.
Louis CK got canceled for masturbating in front of female comedians.
his cancellation doesn't even have anything to do with whatever he's said.
my point is Louis CK rose to prominence, saying the N-word in his comedy specials,
and in interviews. but conspicuously escaped reprisal for this.
so it's part of the reason I look at white N-word hysteria cynically.

You'll be surprised to know that he's been a guest on the Joe Rogan Experience 7 times

Disclaimers when he brings on a white supremacist or conspiracy theorist
Links to reputable articles and podcasts that profile the racist guess he brings on
A commitment to bring on Civil Rights advocates and academics
When Andrew Sullivan wanted to feature Charles Murray without challenge, it was employees at the New Republic that protested forced his hand to make sure everything Murrary was presenting was challenged in the same issue. So to make sure anyone that picked up the magazine knew Murrary's reputation and knew about the issues people, including his peers had with him
If Rogan and Spotify want people to believe they want to do better. Welp, maybe actually detail how you will do that.
It is weird. It seems like you have walked back to what you think the solution is. You seemed to agree with me that more speech is needed to check Rogan nonsense and force him to confront challenges to the ******* he peddles
Now your position is basically "welp, an apology is all you can get "

i don't have a problem with any of that.
i'm arguing against things I think are counter-productive like total deplatfomring.
but i believe you want to substantively want to improve things,
it's harder for me to believe other people when they demand
more extreme, and less effective measures.

You can summarize his position as "let's not do anything or we'll make things worse," which only makes sense outside the historical and sociological context of the last 100-120 years.
Like I said before, if this were the 1950s, dude would be among those smug black folks who criticized the bus boycotts.
You're constructing your argument from a conclusion that is not correct.
Banning/boycotting/deplatforming/cancelling is not counterproductive. People use this tactic BECAUSE it works. Rogan didn't apologize before the backlash against Spotify; he did it after. Furthermore,while such an action doesn't always hurt the revenues of the targeted entity, it often hurts its reputation, and in the case of extremists, deplatforming negatively impacts their recruitment efforts.
But you don't want to hear it because you don't like it.

I really ain’t feel how Chris Rock’s voice and tone changed up in this setting. **** uncomfortable.
Seinfield actually being the Seinfeld gif. He’s the bare minimum voice of reason.

Jerry probably didn't want to spoil the vibe of the discussion (which is cowardice), but at least he had common sense in the situation. The "nor do I seek it" was a nice low key jab at the end

All of these folks recovered, but some of yall want to pretend disrespecting black folks really puts folks in "time out."

Yet another internal contradiction. You mustn't oppose popularly held prejudices... well, sometimes you can...
For the umpteenth time, we're not talking about government regulation of personal speech, we're talking about individuals choosing to sever their voluntary association with a private company selling hate speech as a commodity.
It's not even about their "right" to sell this garbage; it's about our right withhold our support from those who do, and demand better of those who seek our patronage.
So the only element necessary to make hate speech unassailable in your view is a beat .
We were talking about CBS radio, but whatever. Feel free to make up some other arbitrary "distinction" to your already jumbled argument as a rationalization.
I'm done watching you run around in circles.
We get it. It's different because it's different and it's bad because you think it's bad.
Seriously: this is the guy you're riding with?! How is this even a discussion?
A company made this guy's show their flagship program and if I prefer not to give them my business as a result, in your view that's "bad" and "not productive."
Yeah, I'll take that under advisement.
It sounds to me like you don't care about White people using that word.
All they have to do is call it "art."
