    “Ahh, it’s been a week, no one remembers that ol Elon Musk agreeing with Nazi rhetoric thingy. Let’s spool those ads up again. We’re definitely seeing a return on our marketing budget by advertising on the platform known for being mostly bots!”

    Now watch as all the corporations that paused their advertising slowly return to the platform.

      They were always going to. As long as Xitter has a user base with money to spend, the large corporations do not care. Anything they do like withdrawing advertising is all for show.

      And after all, are you going to cancel your Netflix subscription over this? I actually probably would personally but my partner uses it quite a lot, so we’re sticking around. Some people will cancel no doubt but nowhere near a critical mass that will affect their bottom line and they know it.

          Fuck yes. They might as well advertise on Stormfront or Nambla or any other conservative site.

          Fuck them. By spending money on a fascist platform, they are materially supporting fascism.
