Spotify as a company can push whatever politics they want to. It's a business decision, if it loses them users then it's upto their management to determine whether that was a good option or not.
You should accept that Spotify is a "liberal" company either as a stance of the management or as who they see their most engaged users to be. Everything doesn't need to appeal to you.
Saying they're shoving their politics in your face is hyperbole. If I read a business focussed newspaper, they're likely to have articles that are anti-climate change. I don't agree but I'm in their house.
>Why not just remove the complaining artists? Why remove the entire playlist?
https://press.spotify.com/uk/about/ "Number of playlists: Over 2 billion"
2 billion playlists, why expend the manpower to do that? Paying moderators isn't free.
>Do you believe that if the political roles were reversed between politician and artist that Spotify would nuke the whole playlist? I sure don't.
Why don't you describe an actual hypothetical scenario?
That a politician created a playlist called Liberal Music and some artists complained. Saying that they want nothing to do with the politician and their party. Also at least one artist indicated that they'd contact their publisher to take action.
Why wouldn't Spotify just take the playlist down? It's the easy action. Playlists are just lists of songs, the songs are still there.
