Tell Spotify: remove Joe Rogan NOW!

[Lede Progress]( ​​ {NAME}, Joe Rogan has the “world’s most popular” podcast on Spotify, and his platform is no stranger to conspiracy theories, transphobia, and right-wing misinformation. Recently, Rogan had Megan Murphy––an anti-trans writer––on his show where they peddled egregious attacks on trans people and spread false claims about the Coronavirus vaccines. Murphy has made her career out of anti-trans vitriol. She was even banned from Twitter for her relentless attacks against the trans community. But Joe Rogan had no problem giving her an audience of millions to spew more hate by saying trans people have a “mental illness.” [Rogan and Murphy’s hatred and vitriol has no place in our society. Will you stand with us today and demand that Spotify remove Joe Rogan’s podcast and stop the spread of anti-trans hate?]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( If Rogan and Murphy’s hatred for the trans community wasn’t enough, they also spewed dangerous misinformation about the Coronavirus vaccines. Rogan falsely told his audience that the vaccines are “gene therapy” and urged people with natural immunity to forgo the vaccines. The pandemic is still raging on because of misinformation like this that is reaching millions of people. It’s irresponsible and it’s putting lives at risk.
