#Youtube is so set into violently enshittifying itself to death that they now take one video spot per row for ads, and they show as ugly blank space in #ublockorigin. You're not going to get any sympathy by continually breaking yourself more and more Youtube. In fact I hope you go full #ElonMusk and bring your advertising to a screeching halt.

It was very kind of #ElonMusk to give so much free publicity to #Disney after they stopped advertising on his site.

But seriously, why would a company that prides itself on being family friendly want to associate with a businessman who doesn't believe in safe spaces or self control.

So #AlexJones is being let back on #Twitter

I can't stress enough how if you're still on Twitter, you leaving can be the last sting that was keeping someone else hanging on to the platform.

The more sane people leave, the less any even somewhat normal person will have to keep them on there. Do your part.

I don't want #AlexJones back on #Xitter, but I do want him here. everybody should have access to social media. the difference is we don't have algos on the #fediverse. most here don't want to see his stuff and won't cause they won't follow him or people who share it. done. over there, #ElonMusk gets to decide. this goes for all messaging. I know there's lots of money in it, but nobody should want others to be forced to see what they say etc. my only hope is that it drives more journalists here.

"FabFitFun, a $1 billion subscription box startup, frantically backpedals after a profane, pro–Elon Musk ad bombs"

:headache:

WTF did they think it was a good idea to :

a) Put their ads on Twitter?

b) Tell their customer to use a GoF--kYourself rebate code. (I don't know if the code was meant to be censored or not.)

From the article:

===
The ad felt like a rude political intrusion into lifestyle retail. One X user wrote, “Just in case anybody thinks of trying FabFitFun, the owners are right-wing Trumpers who are enamoured with Elon & snarl ‘woke’ under their breath.”

As has been brought up in the reply threads, #ElonMusk definitely and DEFINITELY Whole Foodsed the fuck out out of, let's say, nearly every last fucking person who bought or leased a Tesla. Elon Musk 100% Whole Foodsed you and didn't even leave a tip of "maybe the purchase of my car, while ostensibly 'Earth-friendly,' MIGHT NOT fully support and nurture the inexorable establishment of fascism in America," cuz yeah, that's what it fucking did. Sorry.

Me, to be clear. I'M sorry about that.

Elon Musk doesn't care because he's an actual Nazi cunt from whom you bought or leased a car and is happy your money will help him A) want for nothing forever and B) destroy civilization, and, folks, I think we have arrived at a pretty good John Mackey-worthy definition of Whole Foodsing.

#ElonMusk is serially unable to take responsibility for his actions, and this is just the latest example. In his mind, if Twitter dies it won’t be because he’s an incompetent executive who got in over his head and is turning off most users with his drift into conspiratorial politics, but because the (probably “woke”) advertisers are boycotting his platform.

Elon Musk, after manipulating financial markets by illegally making public & often FALSE financial statements to drive up his valuation, is applying his legally-ignorant view of "free speech" because he doesn't think he should be held accountable for anything he says - no matter the impact, no matter how illegal.

Every court of law & appellate court has disagreed with him so he's throwing a hail mary at the SCOTUS.

What a loser.

I know that some people here are going to see a #cybertruck and be mad that someone actually bought one of these things.

Be mad if you want, but don't act mad at them. At least, not visibly.

Laugh at the truck, in that "oh my gods, you actually bought one of those stupid things?" way. In that "trying not to be seen laughing at you but I can't stop oh my gods it's so stupid looking I can't believe it's real" kind of way.

If you're with a friend, suppress a laugh, poke your friend and get them to look and have them try not to laugh in that "oh my gods I'm so embarrassed for you" way.

Because let's face it: it is hilarious.

And a lot of Muskovites, they're fine with angry strangers.

Being laughed at, though?

https://marker.medium.com/we-should-not-endure-a-king-dfef34628153

I've been thinking a lot about the power that #ElonMusk wields & the harm he causes.
#Socialmedia's harm isn't just from an owner but from multiple companies & the industry.
We can't just ignore the harm they cause so we need ideas, laws & tools to stop the harm.
#Twitter #Meta #Google

Cory Doctorow on the Majority Report with Emma Vigeland
", you know, the we used to have the standard for antitrust that was grounded in the idea of harmful dominance. That you know, when a company gets too big it becomes too big to fail and too big to jail. You know, some people might have heard of the Sherman Act, the first anti-trust act passed in 1890 by Senator John Sherman was the brother of Tecumseh Sherman. And when when John Sherman was briefing for this law on the Senate floor, he said, If we would not allow a king to rule America, we shouldn't allow an autocrat of trade to determine how we attain the necessities of our lives or work for our wages, and that when a company gets too big, it becomes impossible to discipline, either by competition or by regulation or, you know, these days, I think we would also understand that it becomes impossible to discipline through labor organizing. That really large companies are able to crush their unions, unless you got these heroic measures like we've had just just very recently but which we didn't have for a couple of decades."

This is somehow not satire.

“At the time, Musk made it clear that he bought Twitter for humanity, not to make money. Cynics doubted his ability to make Twitter profitable, but millions of X users embraced his new subscription model and the promise of creator generated revenue streams.”

Capitalists like #Elonmusk would do anything to destroy the power of boycotts. Because they want to be able to be free capitalists without consumers being free.
So that's why they want monopolies

#ElonMusk was bluffing. He was thinking that he could make advertisers who don't advertise on #Twitter look like pussies, and that his incredibly strong army of followers would make them scared. Turns out it's not even a squadron let alone an army, and they called his bluff https://www.npr.org/2023/12/06/1217513348/advertising-boycott-at-the-platform-formerly-known-as-twitter-grows-by-the-day

So an X investor supports Musk's Anti-Advertiser remark. You know you're a whore to the almighty $ when you stoop this low.

The owners of Ocean should sue Twitter car. They published a low resolution polygon truck for Robocop 3 on the Amiga well before Tesla did.

Interviewer: But advertisers say it is YOU killing the company.

#ElonMusk: Tell it to the judge.

Interviewer: Who is the judge?

Elon Musk: The Earth.

Dane County, Wisconsin: I think we are ok with what passes for "the Earth" in Elon Musk's master-race brain judging us for not posting messages about highway closures on his online Klan rally.

Elon Musk in a nutshell.
#ElonMusk #Cybertruck

Picture showing a Tesla Cybertruck with the following text:
“Days after launch, you sit at a red light.
The novelty is gone, you aren't any happier. Maybe it's your imagination but the gaps in the door look off. You think you saw a car full of teens laughing at you earlier. You're now 100k in debt for a meme, and you feel nothing.”
