Fun Fact: The more advertisers that pull out because they appear next to nazi shit increases the likelihood the remaining advertisers will appear next to nazi shit.
Musical chairs, Nazi shit edition
Perfect comparison
So, IBM walks into a Nazi bar, and after six drinks, slurrs to the bartender, “What’s with all the swastikas?”
Which is weird given IBM’s WWII history.
Is it though? No one currently working at IBM was there in WWII. It’s pretty meaningless to point fingers at a corporations history when it’s so dated
That’s like judging current Germany based on WWII. Different times, different people
Of course it is not. People are just meming, including up voters.
Meming’s fun but I wish it wouldn’t be everywhere all the time.
Maybe this guy is old enough to remember it? Not likely. I drive an ID.4 and the other day some dude drove by me with the Nazi salute. Some people don’t understand context.
My grandfather told me he saw German tanks with a Ford logo on the western front.
He drove a Cadillac.
They don’t want to remind anyone of that
It’s all pro-Nazi content now.
Yep. Shame on any company or individual that’s still active on Twitter. It’s a nazi platform now and there’s no excuse to still be there. Mastodon exists, so if you’re still on Twitter you are part of the problem.
And it’s sad how much pushback this conversation gets. When you try to tell people that remaining there is giving explicit support for the Nazi platform it’s become, there’s always some sort of excuse.
Pro-Nazi content. In other words, Elon’s own posts.
“When it comes to this platform - X has also been extremely clear about our efforts to combat antisemitism and discrimination. There’s no place for it anywhere in the world - it’s ugly and wrong. Full stop,” said Yaccarino.
Hahahahahaaaaahaaaha. Ha.
IBM sold machines to the original Nazis, so I guess this time around they at least want to keep up the appearance of giving a shit where their money comes from
They are just now realizing this?
Probably they are just now being called out on it
Ironically unironic. An accurate, if uncomfortable reminder of their history.
Companies are so full of shit when they pull ads like this. They wouldn’t use Google ad program if they were worried about their ads being on bad content.
