Elon Musk, the owner of X, criticized advertisers with expletives on Wednesday at The New York Times’s DealBook Summit.

"Hours later, Linda Yaccarino, X’s chief executive, tried to mitigate the damage. In a post on X, she shifted attention to Mr. Musk’s apology for associating himself with antisemitism and appealed to advertisers to return.
“X is enabling an information independence that is uncomfortable for some people,” Ms. Yaccarino wrote. “X is standing at a unique and amazing intersection of Free Speech and Main Street — and the X community is powerful and here to welcome you.”
It's called information independence y'all, look it up. Kinda like alternative facts but better.
X is giving actual Nazis a platform, so that comment can fuck right off.
Honestly at this point it's ok. Because the worse it gets the quicker people will abandon it. Advertisers leaving means famous people won't be able to monetize the website optimally and they'll start looking for alternatives as well. It will just take the right start up with leadership that isn't a massive dick head to see sometime knock out the titan. I honestly can't wait.
Well, Linda Yaccarino is an actual Nazi, so that tracks.
A unique and amazing platform, no less.
independent from what?
Reality.
Critical thinking, apparently.
Decency
Next question!
We must liberate information from reality. We are the freedom bringers.
Reality?
This woman must have some clause in her contract that says she loses some big cash bonus if she quits too soon. Why would any sane person with a reputation that is quickly eroding choose to stay?
"Fortune and The New Republic described Yaccarino as a former Trump appointee who follows a number of conspiracy theorist and far-right accounts on Twitter."
So, personal agenda/interests probably...
“The X community” can go FUCK ITSELF! Is that clear? I hope so.
Yep!
However, at this point, isn't it mostly bots?
Let Muskrat dump even more money into that dumpster.
