All these news about X going to shit feels like that gif of the truck driving towards the pole but constantly cutting before the impact
wow everything is a nazi now including hitler
They never give Adolf Hitler credit- he killed Adolf Hitler.
“Everything that I don’t like (that is or openly supports a nazi) is now a nazi!”
These days mate, if you’re a Nazi, they’ll call you a Nazi! Oh no, when did this come in?
woke mind wizards
I got curious about just how bad said Nazi content is, and managed to find an article with some screenshots: https://nypost.com/2023/08/17/x-suspends-pro-hitler-account-after-brands-paused-ads/
Spoiler: very Nazi.
So it’s not just Nazi-compatible ideas. It’s straight out Nazi symbolism.
I really don’t get these people - even if you believe the Nazis were right, you know they are the most hated historical faction in the world. Wouldn’t it be better to advocate their ideas without explicitly associating yourself with them, just to avoid the (completely justified) knee-jerk reaction?
You’re suggesting that Nazi’s use their famous critical thinking skills to understand that 99% of the world hates them and their ideology?
Being evil is one thing, but there is no excuse for being stupid.
They want the negative reaction. They thrive on being hated. Similar with some of the worst Internet trolls. The hatred validates them.

I don’t think raising swastika flags counts as “without explicitly associating yourself with them”.
Lunatics always show up in my For You feed on Twitter. I always tag the company with a screenshot of the offending content with the advertisement. Lately it’s been weird advertisements. Shitty gambling apps, religious and personal accounts promoting their personal brand. So they likely don’t care.
Also I’ll never call Twitter anything but Twitter.

I don’t know, I think there’s room for appropriate change here;
- Twater
- Twit’er
- Twixlers
I admit, my suggestions could use more help, but surely we must admit they’ve devolved from Twitter!?
You just accidentally named 3 mastodon instances.
Slap a .moe or .xyz or a .social and you’re federatin baby
Moe moe, kyun~
Sorry, wrong subreddit, err, community.
Just love how we all refer to it as “the company formerly known as Twitter”
Feels like “the artist formerly known as Prince”
It may have been implied.
Huh? That’s quite a leap, don’t you think? /s
Just keep calling it Twitter without acknowledging the name change. It’ll piss him off even more.
It’s still hosted on twitter.com, so idk what the deal is.
Can’t see any company, let alone something family friendly being remotely okay with any of this. Who wants to pay to be right next to Nazi content besides maybe MyPillow?
I wish they hadn’t change the name. It was much easier to keep bullshit I do not care about out of my newsfeed when it was called twitter.
Turns out, money is very much anti-free speech.
That’s what happens when you hang out at a Nazi bar…
Any company still advertising on Twitter deserves to be associated with Nazis.
Wrestle with pigs, get covered in shit, or something like that.
Does anybody else have a feeling like it’s a New Coke situation?
Drive it into the ground, then a year later come back with a shadow CEO and say “We’re back and better than ever”…profit.
He’s already installed the shadow CEO.
They seriously need to put her face as the last image on the Wikipedia page for sycophant. The pattern is her lagging response with hollow corporate, “girlboss” speak to frame a random 2am gut response from elon as a considered business decision. Her statements to justify his BS are BURSTING with double speak and circular nothingness.
How is that supposed to work?
And no one but Musk is the least bit surprised by the catastrophic failure of Twitter.
Can’t even block nazis.
Couldn’t block them in real life in the 30s and 40s, so he’s just being true to history.
If you’re advertising on Twitter in 2023 and your target audience isn’t Nazis, what are you doing? 😅
