What anti-Semitic conspiracy theory are you talking about? Do you even know? Or are you being a convenient mouthpiece parrot, like usual? So, now you object to Nazi content? But you’re not bothered by the swastikas used by pro-Palestinian protesters?IP: Logged |

Try looking it up yourself. Try clicking the link? I know it isn't the daily caller, or breitbart. Silence is complicity, Randall. Right? IP: Logged |

Update (11/16/23): IBM released a statement to the Financial Times saying that it has “suspended all advertising on X while we investigate this entirely unacceptable situation.” Media Matters will update if the other major companies in this report take any similar actions. As X owner Elon Musk continues his descent into white nationalist and antisemitic conspiracy theories, his social media platform has been placing ads for major brands like Apple, Bravo (NBCUniversal), IBM, Oracle, and Xfinity (Comcast) next to content that touts Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party. The company’s placements come after CEO Linda Yaccarino claimed that brands are “protected from the risk of being next to” toxic posts on the platform. Yaccarino has been trying to bring advertisers back to the platform by claiming it’s safe for business. She’s also claimed that X (formerly Twitter) has been “demonstrating its absolute commitment to combating antisemitism on the platform” and that “antisemitism is evil and X will always work to fight it on our platform.” But her boss last night endorsed the pernicious antisemitic conspiracy theory that Jewish people are supporting “hordes of minorities” who are “flooding” into the country to replace white people. That conspiracy theory was the same one that motivated the deadly 2018 Tree of Life synagogue shooting. X has also reinstated numerous accounts of bigots and paid far-right extremists, apparently including a pro-Hitler and Holocaust denier account, as part of its creator ad revenue sharing program. During all of this Musk-induced chaos, corporate advertisements have also been appearing on pro-Hitler, Holocaust denial, white nationalist, pro-violence, and neo-Nazi accounts. Yaccarino has attempted to placate companies by claiming that “brands are now ‘protected from the risk of being next to’ potentially toxic content.” But that certainly isn’t the case for at least five major brands: We recently found ads for Apple, Bravo, Oracle, Xfinity, and IBM next to posts that tout Hitler and his Nazi Party on X.

I don’t click on your garbage links. Just tell me, if you even know. I am guessing you don’t. You just repeat the nonsense you hear, usually on Twitter. The article you posted does not state what the supposed anti-Semitic conspiracy theory is. So what is it? And once again, you don’t seem to have a problem with Nazis when they support your position for the Palestinians or when they are in Ukraine. So, you are definitely not against Nazis as a strict rule. Are some Nazis good Nazis in your view?IP: Logged |

I am pretty sure you don’t know what a Nazi is. But you do make a great parrot, reposting things people say verbatim with no evidence whatsoever to back those statements up.IP: Logged |

I cannot imagine an intelligent person like Musk letting loose his horses on a sensitive topic such as this. He too rose from the **** hole south africa to what he has become today and I thought he would empathize with the Jews who has suffered so much over thousands of years.

First of all, South Africa is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Secondly, Musk supports Israel. He just also supports free speech. The two are not mutually exclusive.IP: Logged |

Paramount, Warner Brothers, Lions Gate. He's pushing the blue check, for an ad-free experience, stating the advertisers are trying to stifle free speech, as he bans words and has given a platform to nazis, ever since he took over, and let them back onto twitter. IP: Logged |

I’m probably not going to be in here for a couple of months. A friend of mine lost his mum tonight, and another who lost her mum early this year, says her dad might be going into hospice care. I need to get grounded in my life, and not waste my energy in here. I hope you all make it through the holidays unscathed. IP: Logged |

This whole story is fake. Therefore, your Nazi narrative is based on lies. Musk has sued them.IP: Logged |

I spend a god awful amount of time on X.It isn't 'anti' anything - everything goes - which is called free speech. I see things which I disagree with and I keep scrolling - thats the beauty of free will...but also I'm not "following" anyone who has radically different views from me, so rarely see. Some zonist companies created a drama from nothing and threatened to stop advertising on X - he told them to go fark themselves. Anyho...we all need to learn to just accept everyone has different views and move on. IP: Logged |

Nope. I don't follow people I disagree with, but they pop up frequently, hurling hate at other people in the comments. Elon ruined the place, he's also anti- anything he disagrees with. He's the total opposite of a free-speech-for-everyone person. So, you can feel free to disagree with me, I don't care. I usually don't check responses here anymore, but this popped up when others don't usually respond. IP: Logged |

I'll also just add a "hello" because I don't know if I've seen you around before. The state this country is in, with conspiracy theories doing a lot of harm, and musk using twitter, to try and swing elections for fascists. There is no agreeing to disagree. IP: Logged |
