Wow thats bad when those evil fucks wont touch it.
Shows really how far it has fallen.
Does walmart even need to advertise? They have such a grip on retailspace they just need to exist to make money.
Same with Oreos. They already won. The marketing team can go home.
And Alexander wept for there were no more worlds to conquer!
False. Great Value fake Oreos are as good, if not better. Trader Joe's Joe Joe's are okay. Oreos are overpriced AF.
Is that a JoJo reference?
Life is a JoJo reference
In my part of the world there is no other cookie like Oreo's.
A lot of people worked very hard on this.
Too bad the product is execrable today.
You can still get hydrox in some places
I actually was wondering too. Back in the day they did because they were competing with so many other bargain department stores. But a lot of those went out of business and Walmart far outpaced most of the rest because of how many locations they have especially in smaller communities where they've even supplanted grocery stores and so on. At this rate people shop at Walmart because they have to mostly.
Well, Walmart can go fuck itself. Not for this, but for it's other terrible business practices

I found myself agreeing with something Ben fucking Shapiro said the other day and I still feel dirty.
I hate when I see the broken clock at the exact moment it's right.
That was bait. They say something borderline reasonable now, and you listen. Eventually, they say something weird and you let it slide. These people weasel themselves into reasonable people's lives and ruin them, day after day.
Every now and again that muppet will say something sensical, until you apply the context in which he's talking, then it's all aboard the crazy train to whatthefucksville.
Oh god, what?
It’s image and profits people, not conscience. Advertising on a failing social media platform populated by fringe idiots and bots isn’t profitable. Walmart is still Walmart.
It would be nicer if advertisers were pulling out because there simply is no audience on twitter anymore. I just wish more people had principles.
While I don't believe them, that's why Walmart says they stopped.
"We aren't advertising on X as we've found other platforms to better reach our customers," a Walmart spokesperson said.
2nd paragraph of the article.
Twitter exists as my disassociation filter. Without it, I have no sly and ethical way of enquiry if a person is a moron, "Do you use Twitter?" It needs to stay.
Eh, too many people are oblivious to what's going on. A significant number have just used it for so long that it's hard for them to let go. It took me a hot minute to get over Reddit last summer, though my app of choice not working certainly helped. It's best to remember that, like reddit, this user base is not representative of the general population.
There's been 3 or 4 mass exoduses of advertisers from X. There have been multiple shit-hitting-the-fan moments that Walmart shrugged off.
I have literally been in a Walmart as a 3rd party and the fucking store caught on fire and no one did anything. Like the ceiling tiles were literally creeping with flames and they didn't even seem to announce an edit plan to anyone until I decided I wasn't going to die in flames as a merchandiser
Oh the irony.
Twitter is a ridiculous place, and no one should use it. That said, another way to read all of this is “there are fewer ads on Twitter” and that is the nugget of corn in this turd.
Does it mean there are fewer ads, or just less variety?
They're probably just lower quality. If advertisers keep pulling out, soon Twitter will just be dick pills and hot singles in your area
Pillow magnates and catheter cowboys.
Soon it's going to be boner pills and prepper gear like Alex Jones.
And they'd find their best customer in muskyboy himself
Dec 1 (Reuters) - Walmart (WMT.N) said on Friday it is not advertising on social media platform X, one of the latest brands to say it has dropped the Elon Musk-owned site.
The platform has struggled to retain advertisers since Musk acquired the company in October 2022, and faced a fresh exodus in recent weeks over rising concern about antisemitic content.
The user had also referenced the "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory, which purports that Jewish people and leftists are engineering the ethnic and cultural replacement of white populations with non-white immigrants that will lead to a "white genocide."
Musk apologized for his post during an interview at a New York Times DealBook event on Wednesday, but hurled expletives against advertisers that suspended their ads, accusing them of "blackmail."
An executive at a major ad-buying agency, who declined to be named, said X ad sales representatives appeared frustrated in the aftermath of Musk's outburst against brands and did not have much to say in conversations.
Major brands including Apple (AAPL.O), Walt Disney (DIS.N) and Warner Bros Discovery (WBD.O) also suspended their ads on X this month following a report from liberal watchdog group Media Matters, which said ads had appeared next to antisemitic posts.

but hurled expletives against advertisers that suspended their ads, accusing them of "blackmail."
Even if there was a totally illegitimate and unethical reason people were mad at X, that's still not "blackmail". That's just business. No business wants to have their brand tarnished or lose money. That's the opposite goal of advertising. No business would continue to lose money in pursuit of "free speech". Only Musk will do that.
"Too Nazi" for the walmarts is a rather high bar.
