+1. This is the crux of the issue. Why are libs obsessed with large corporate America? Shouldnt they be advocating for unions and workers rights and less profits for the big bad companies like Disney and IBM?
And Musk is advocating for unions and/or workers?
No, dumb dumb. That’s what liberals have historically advocated for. 🙄
Lol at libs shilling for large corporations that don't fEeL sAfE posting on Twitter

Let me know how believing that advertisers can decide where to spend their funds is anti-union and anti-workers rights. I’ll wait.
The lawsuit was just filed against Media Matters in the Northern District of Texas, which has ten Republican-appointed judges and one Clinton judge. The case would appeal to the heavily-Republican 5th Circuit. Grab your popcorn.
Texas AG Ken Paxton launched his own investigation as well.
The fact that Paxton still has his job conflicts with your proclamation that the right hates lies.
Judge for yourself
Ep. 25 Liberals like Karl Rove just tried to annihilate Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. It didn't work. Paxton just joined us for his first interview since his acquittal. pic.twitter.com/SAJGNN5LXW
As a bystander, i'de rather have some off the rails dude run things than some old white men in suits that try to hide their intentions by "supporting" whatever they think the smooth brain population is advocating that month. As long as people get enraged it's a win in my book. Don't care much what group of people are getting pissed off.
If anything, it's entertaining as proof of this thread. People talk about it. I'll sit back and eat my popcorn.
He must mean “Liberals, like Karl Rove, …,” not “Liberals like Karl Rove,” right?
Maybe it’s just foolish of me to ask, since I generally agree with the presiding judge and Fox lawyers that no reasonable person should be expected to take what Tucker Carlson says seriously.

Man, you skillfully made the point that other people are dumb.
Like all other advertizing boycotts over the last several years. Companies will return to the X platform once the media attention dies down. That is of course if Elon can keep his mouth shut long enough for the media attention to die down.
Musk gave no indication that he was trying to spark deeper conversations. He came off as challenging the advertisers to support him or risk being blamed for destroying the platform. He sat on the stage preening and shrugging and repeating his FU rather than stating a case for the advertiser's continues support. He is certainly entitled to say "my way or the highway". But like everyone else who says that, he has no right to complain when people take the highway.
This post is right on the money. Anyone who in response to questions keeps saying F...you is not looking to stimulate deeper conversation. It's bizarre to me that that was the message a poster got from that tirade.
Understand Elon Musk is only for free speech when things are said that he wants to here. When called on some of his behavior that limited free speech during the interview he said some free speech isn't really free it costs.
The truth about that interview: Musk gave a very petulant angry interview because he is not a used to not getting his way and he doesn't have the social skills to handle it. He acted like a child who lost and pretended who doesn't care, but everyone watching could see it got to him.
Actually Elon wants to be the hero bad boy of the right like trump. But that is a failure move, just ask Ron DeSantis.
I agree with you, and only want to add that I believe he also set out to create his alibi: even though Twitter has done nothing but get run into the ground since I (Elon Musk) bought it, when it finally fails, it's not my fault, it is due to the advertisers that set out to blackmail me. It's just a cover-my-@ss move preemptively because a company deep in debt just made another business blunder, and the likelihood that it will fail and he will be blamed for it is becoming increasingly likely.
Twitter is turning into Gab/Parler/Truth Social. Tell me again how these are/were doing.
Elon is Croesus and is giving a finger to other billionaires. Best case, like Bezos with WaPo; BATNA, screws over Jack with pocket change just because he can.
also the Letsrun forum website is worse than Hitler just to close things in a bow. I don’t need 7 pieces of ad flair just moving from page to page

You find enjoyment at people becoming enraged? And you don't care you as long as they are enraged?
Are do you feel when you see people happy and relating well with others?

Because of faux morality. Libs center their policies on how they feel about the rightness or wrongness of an issue, not whether it’s practical or not. For example, in this scenario, the massive companies like Disney and Nike are choosing not to advertise because they feel that Elon Musk’s views are “wrong.” Yet, at the same time, if you look at what those companies actually do to their own employees or in their own communities, it’s quite barbaric: sweat shops in east Asia, supporting trans sex ed to little innocent kids etc.
Libs are fawning over big corporate companies making a business decision based on “morals” yet choosing to ignore other business decisions which have a negative impact on their fellow human beings.

Can you imagine a company like Nike, which makes lots and lots of money off child slave labor, portraying itself as an arbiter of morality!

That didn’t answer my question at all. How is believing that Disney and Nike, in your example, can choose where to spend money for advertising, somehow anti union or anti workers rights?
You think they should be forced to advertise on X? Boy, what does that sound like?

…and Apple?
…but in Apple’s defence, they did have anti suicide nets built to prevent employee suicide at Foxconn. So they are nice people.
