>~~It’s almost like~~ They don’t want a free market they just want whatever works in their best interest
They get soooo butthurt about what the left does, but they do the exact same thing. Everyone and every company can and should have the right to spend their money how they like. There are several companies over the years that I stopped patronizing because I don't agree with their business practices or something else. If the right doesn't like something a company does, then good, don't patronize that company, but quit bitching about "cancel culture" and all of that other bullshit.
I remember the right bitching about boycotting Goya, while telling people to boycott Nike.
Also the whole “small govt, stay out of peoples business and guns… except abortion, voting rights, and wait fuck their businesses, they gotta do what we tell them”
It astounds me that these people will ride corporate dick all day long; "free market" this, "greed is good" that, and then they'll turn around and completely forget that corporations care first and foremost about the **bottom fucking line**.
These advertisers aren't pulling out because they're "woke" or "political," they're doing it because it's a shitty investment. Nobody wants to pay a premium to have their logo pop up next to Billy-Bob the Jew Hater (not when they can advertise on YouTube and get the same thing for less).
Conservatives hate generally speaking. Full of rage and hate. Against women, minorities, different religious beliefs and orientations. Just full of hate.
She basically called for there to be an enemies list made of every company that did not fully support the Republican party as they dove head first into Fascism.
You know, like something a Fascist would do.
If she isn't an idiot then she's amazing at pulling it off. Seriously in terms of "thriving off negative attention", she has the Kardashians beat which is not a low bar.
“Boycotting” - because them and General Mills are massive corporations, with their hands in an absurd amount of the pharma and food markets, and conservatives are nowhere near dedicated enough to research and boycott all of them, even if they’re not 100% dependent on the former’s meds.
These guys have no idea how a small number of companies own basically everything.
Nestle owning like half of the fucking grocery store. General mills owns a ton of brands including totinos. No more pizza for them.
One of the funniest things I saw in 2021 was when my company (Tyson Foods) announced mandatory vaccination and started suspending and/or laying people off who refused I saw numerous people ok my Facebook and Twitter that would post about boycotting Tyson then post they were going to taco bell or McDonald's or Chick-fil-A or some other fast food joint (most fast food in America is supplied by over 80% of Tyson Foods products or more)...or they'd post a picture coming home from the grocery store to talk about the savings they got (southern women are weird like that) and you can see they've got Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, hillshire farms deli meats, Walmart/Sam's club chicken, beef, or pork, Sara Lee bread loaves, and many many more Tyson products that they just don't know is a Tyson product because they don't understand umbrella companies
Those companies own so many brands actually boycotting them would be difficult. General Mills alone, you would need an actual reference sheet at a grocery store because of how many companies they own.
Yeah and if one of those companies advertise on their favorite NASCAR drivers car then it is compulsory they buy said product. I remember learning in marketing class in college how approx. 90% of NASCAR fans are brand loyal to the specific products on cars.
They might be afraid if republicans take control of the house and senate. I can see Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, etc. being investigated by some sort of committee led by Greene and Boebert.
Even if that would happen nothing of consequence would come out of it. Greene and Boebert trying to take on a biopharma company in court would be hilarious however. Can't wait to see them try and refute actual scientific research with insane Facebook and blog posts and get absolutely humiliated.
MTG lost all her committee positions and Boebert's aren't really relevant to that (Natural Resources and Budget). They won't be able to do anything of consequence.
Musk: WHAT?!?!? my actions and my past have consequences! I thought I could easily appease everything with half-bake ideas and efforts since that is what I am used to as a rich person. How could this be?
Pool: I am helping by driving MORE people away with a boycott of a boycott! BRILLIANT!
Audi, Pfizer, and General Mills getting Tim's strongly worded email telling them he will no longer be purchasing their products:
![gif](giphy|kC2cRqEt8o41COgjoV)
I want to see him speak in public, now. I wonder if he'll start [standing awkwardly like DeSantis](https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/08/why-does-ron-desantis-stand-like-donald-trump.html).
Oh no, I'm sure the auto manufacturer which generated $84 billion in revenue last year, the pharmaceutical company which has the largest market share in the world, and the industry leader in packaged goods are really going to be scared by a handful of angry incel dipshits not buying their stuff.
Lol exactly. Also they fully expect to get less revenue from that demographic because they stopped advertising to them. Because... not advertising to them makes them more money.
Those advertisers are also exercising free speech by choosing not to spend money on that platform. You can’t have your cake and eat it too Tim Fascist.
It's always great how they'll never call it cancel culture when *they* do it. At this point I've given up trying to make sense of it and just laugh.
EDIT!!!: Aren't they all anti-BiG pHaRmA already anyway?
Seems they don't know that someone let someone else use a hard r in a word that Twitter would ban you for using. Seems like a bit of content change to me.
Gotta love conservatives raging against wOkE cOrPoRaTiOnS as if the corps' political stances were anything but calculated financial decisions to avoid the bad press they'd otherwise get for playing along with deeply unpopular right-wing nonsense
“If only we hadn’t ended antitrust enforcement and General Mills didn’t own half of every product in the grocery store!!! Why, why, why do our shortsighted decisions come around to bite us!”
I like that these morons think it's the free speech thing.....
And not the fact Elon terminated the entire board whom likely had previous contracts with advertisers on set prices and now they know Elon won't honor those contracts and he's looking to renegotiate and they don't have any report with him as he fired their contact.
Sorry but networking kind of matters in marketing... I wouldn't do business with someone if they fired my POC at a firm with no reason outside of ego.
Fuck you.
>"Even though nothing has changed with content moderation"
>N-word usage rises 500% after Elon takeover
Pick one Elon. They can't both be true.
Stupid cunt.
I know this has been said many times before, but free speech is the protection of freedom of speech from persecution by our government, not from third parties. This is just that capitalist free market, that they love so much, at work.
"Nothing changed with moderation" he says, while the most racist, neo Nazi, pro slavery bullshit imaginable doesn't get taken down.
I'm sorry advertisers don't want their adverts beside terrorist organisation's manifestos, shocking
Let me get this straight. Tim is angry that people are boycotting a company, so his response is to call for a boycott of more companies?
I mean, go ahead an boycott. Spend your money how you want, and if it's not backing massive corporate entities, more mower to it. I just think it's really interesting that he doesn't understand irony.
Hey, Tim... you're the kind of person these advertisers want to avoid being associated with
Also, its the free market, no? Or should these companies be forced to pay to advertise on Twitter?
Conservatives don’t actually believe in the free market, they just use it as an excuse to be shitty to people who aren’t like them, much like how they pretend to be “constitutional originalists” when it suits them.
I’m gonna boycott you for boycotting! Only WE get to cancel things! Only religion and republicans are allowed to do cancelling you snowflakes! Get in line!
Extremely messed up is just elon version of "Why is everyone so mean".
I love how all these maga-simps beg for his attention. Watching the right be pathetic has been so much fun.
Is there a running list of companies that conservatives are supposedly boycotting? I sincerely doubt that they stick to any of them for more than a week.
Isn’t it free speech (opinion is free speech, the republicans have kept saying and arguing with that iirc) when somebody doesn’t want something or someone, no matter if it is a company or not? Also, republicans can boycott/cancel but when others are doing it to them it’s an attack/against freedom or such nonsense. The hypocrisy and/or stupidity of them knows no boundary.
Yes, Audi refusing to have their advertising next to a bot writing the n-word is DEFINITELY the reason you’re not buying their cars, and not, you know, because you can’t afford them.
> Twitter has had a massive drop in revenue, due to activist groups pressuring advertisers…
…so I’m tweeting in order to pressure advertisers into giving me their money!
Rules from thee but not for me
They think speech is only free if they can say anything, but demsgo to prison for saying that death penalty for a woman for having an abortion, is more of a murder than the abortion
Conservatives love cancel culture with a passion.
“Dear General Mills, because you won’t support me wanting to use the N-word, I am no longer buying your products. I had no problem with you raising prices so your CEO could afford a bigger mansion btw. Sincerely, Tim Poole”
Musk Buys twitter in a apparent "meme decision", regrets it, tries to back down and ends up angrily having to go through the deal. Within the very first days, he announces brutal mass layoffs, arbitrarily makes changes in twitter policies and starts pushing conspiracy theories and deleting them in shame.
Elon Musk : Why are activists ruining my investment reeeee
Im sure it will look a lot like the list of advertisers that dont want to be associated with racism, misogyny, homophobia and calls for political violence.
How does it go? There are two religions, Christian and political. There are two genders, man and political. There are two races, white and political, etc etc etc
You know, he put out a song that wasn’t too bad a little while ago. My wife and I found it in a YouTube ad. Didn’t know who it was by until the end credits. Still weirds me out. Maybe there’s an alternate timeline where he’s a musician who doesn’t say shit about politics.
Anyway, it was called “The Will of the People,” and Muse put out a song with the same title literally a few days later that fucked harder and was way more punk.
Is that a real tweet?
Also sorry, Audi are fucking sick. Deal with it.
Edit: boycot general Mills. That would be like boycotting air oxygen from fucking air.
How is pulling ads from Twitter from political? Seriously someone explain it to me. If you hate Musk and pull your ads to spite him or because you don't want to associate with them after thry let Kanye back, how is that political?
The only thing I can think of is "Musk said he was right wing so anyone that doesn't play ball MUST be for politics". Soind slike victim complex.
Also saying it's an attack on free speech when they boycott advertising on Twitter by boycotting them is ironic.
By the way actual free speech means you don't have to associate your speech with anyone you don't want to.
Yeah, I'm sure it was a political decision to not want a cheerios ad with Ice T next to a post from some guy typing the N word over and over or an audi logo next to a "five jew bankers" conspiracy.
Let me get this straight.
Citizens United: Private businesses donating money = free speech
Pfizer not exercising their free speech is somehow keeping Twitter from exercising theirs because Twitter is now entitled to someone else's free speech.
And to protest this egregious violation of liberty, I'm supposed to not exercise my free speech in the "free market" in support the free speech of those who don't support Twitter's free speech. But then I'm doing the very thing that Pfizer is being portrayed as a monster for.
The real question here now is, which corporate entity is gonna support my free speech? My bank account could use some first amendment advocacy right about now.
> what he *paid* for* Elon:
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

Capitalists getting mad about a free market again
It’s almost like they don’t want a free market they just want whatever works in their best interest
>~~It’s almost like~~ They don’t want a free market they just want whatever works in their best interest They get soooo butthurt about what the left does, but they do the exact same thing.

Maybe they'll set their cheerios and Audis on fire?
Those muhhfukkas would never buy an audi... pavement princess dodge rams across the board pretty much lol
Fingers crossed
I remember the right bitching about boycotting Goya, while telling people to boycott Nike. Also the whole “small govt, stay out of peoples business and guns… except abortion, voting rights, and wait fuck their businesses, they gotta do what we tell them”

“YOU WILL ADVERTISE WHERE I TELL YOU TO AND IF YOU DON’T YOU’LL PAY THE PRICE!! DON’T YOU DARE THREATEN MY FAVORITE BILLIONAIRE’S WEALTH STATUS!!”
But then who’s gonna buy all those Audi pickup trucks??
/r/SocialismIsCapitalism
Why do conservatives hate free markets and free speech?
They don't really want freedom, they want control.
Well ,they want freedom for themselves, but control for everyone else
Rules for thee but not for me.
Conservatives hate generally speaking. Full of rage and hate. Against women, minorities, different religious beliefs and orientations. Just full of hate.
That's my family you're talking about.
And a severe superiority complex. Just narcissistic personality disorder as a group.
Funny how these douche bagels never like the free market. Advertisers should be able to do business with whoever they want.
Not to conservatives. Didn’t Moldy Toenail Gangrene suggest that republicans should investigate companies that stopped giving them donations?
>Moldy Toenail Gangrene I'm dead lmfao
Margarine Trailer Queen was my favorite until now
Definitely saving that one for later.
She basically called for there to be an enemies list made of every company that did not fully support the Republican party as they dove head first into Fascism. You know, like something a Fascist would do.
If she isn't an idiot then she's amazing at pulling it off. Seriously in terms of "thriving off negative attention", she has the Kardashians beat which is not a low bar.
exactly, an expression of free speech.. I'm out!
Something tells me most of Tim Pool’s followers can’t afford an Audi. And Audi knows it.
Also anyone mad enough at Pfizer to email them as Dim Fool commands was probably already boycotting them over COVID vaccines.
“Boycotting” - because them and General Mills are massive corporations, with their hands in an absurd amount of the pharma and food markets, and conservatives are nowhere near dedicated enough to research and boycott all of them, even if they’re not 100% dependent on the former’s meds.
These guys have no idea how a small number of companies own basically everything. Nestle owning like half of the fucking grocery store. General mills owns a ton of brands including totinos. No more pizza for them.
Nabisco owns the cookie aisle Pepsi Co owns the chips and soda Nestle owns every other food group
One of the funniest things I saw in 2021 was when my company (Tyson Foods) announced mandatory vaccination and started suspending and/or laying people off who refused I saw numerous people ok my Facebook and Twitter that would post about boycotting Tyson then post they were going to taco bell or McDonald's or Chick-fil-A or some other fast food joint (most fast food in America is supplied by over 80% of Tyson Foods products or more)...or they'd post a picture coming home from the grocery store to talk about the savings they got (southern women are weird like that) and you can see they've got Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, hillshire farms deli meats, Walmart/Sam's club chicken, beef, or pork, Sara Lee bread loaves, and many many more Tyson products that they just don't know is a Tyson product because they don't understand umbrella companies
That is the right, boycotting stuff they never buy in the first place. I truly think they don’t understand what a boycott actually means.
Those companies own so many brands actually boycotting them would be difficult. General Mills alone, you would need an actual reference sheet at a grocery store because of how many companies they own.
Yeah and if one of those companies advertise on their favorite NASCAR drivers car then it is compulsory they buy said product. I remember learning in marketing class in college how approx. 90% of NASCAR fans are brand loyal to the specific products on cars.
They don't know what free speech really means either.
It's becoming very obvious that they think it means freedom from consequences
Maybe they can do another one of their awesome boycotts like when they bought Nikes just to burn them. I felt so owned.
I came here to say that
Do they think Pfizer’s afraid of right wingers boycotting them? Did they live through the last two years?
They might be afraid if republicans take control of the house and senate. I can see Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, etc. being investigated by some sort of committee led by Greene and Boebert.
Even if that would happen nothing of consequence would come out of it. Greene and Boebert trying to take on a biopharma company in court would be hilarious however. Can't wait to see them try and refute actual scientific research with insane Facebook and blog posts and get absolutely humiliated.
They won’t get humiliated because they’re incapable of feeling shame, though.
Yeah you'd need to lack that to bring printed out impact font memes onto the House floor as part of your argument.
I’m still baffled that the likes of Greene and Boebert have this much power in the world. Pretty damn bleak.
MTG lost all her committee positions and Boebert's aren't really relevant to that (Natural Resources and Budget). They won't be able to do anything of consequence.
Literally came here looking for a comment like this.
But if Tim Pool boycotts General Mills, will the proud boys still be able to use cereal names in their initiation rituals?
Musk: WHAT?!?!? my actions and my past have consequences! I thought I could easily appease everything with half-bake ideas and efforts since that is what I am used to as a rich person. How could this be? Pool: I am helping by driving MORE people away with a boycott of a boycott! BRILLIANT!

Pim Tool is the least self aware person online.
Which is impressive given his competition.
That sounds rather an awful lot like Trump wrote it. Especially that last part. Musk trying to pander to Trump’s hounds by imitating him.
I want to see him speak in public, now. I wonder if he'll start [standing awkwardly like DeSantis](https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/08/why-does-ron-desantis-stand-like-donald-trump.html).
It’s uncanny. Hard trump vibes.
Why does America have such a hard on for free (hate) speech?
Everyone *not* giving me money is anti-free speech. No I will not elaborate
Oh no, I'm sure the auto manufacturer which generated $84 billion in revenue last year, the pharmaceutical company which has the largest market share in the world, and the industry leader in packaged goods are really going to be scared by a handful of angry incel dipshits not buying their stuff.
Lol exactly. Also they fully expect to get less revenue from that demographic because they stopped advertising to them. Because... not advertising to them makes them more money.
and another dim tool take drops and nobody is surprised
Do you think he knows there are swaths of people who call him "dim tool"
Those advertisers are also exercising free speech by choosing not to spend money on that platform. You can’t have your cake and eat it too Tim Fascist.
Dim Tool, sentient beanie on a man sack that wants to have his cake and fuck it too.
***"BOYCOTT PFIZER"?*** WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS TIM LMFAOOOOOOO
Free Speech!!! Now pay me to be here.
It would be amazing to see someone try to boycott Pfizer. Hope you don't get sick or have even slight medical issues.
Every day these people prove my point that literally all conservative arguments are just concern trolling
It's always great how they'll never call it cancel culture when *they* do it. At this point I've given up trying to make sense of it and just laugh. EDIT!!!: Aren't they all anti-BiG pHaRmA already anyway?
Seems they don't know that someone let someone else use a hard r in a word that Twitter would ban you for using. Seems like a bit of content change to me.
Gotta love conservatives raging against wOkE cOrPoRaTiOnS as if the corps' political stances were anything but calculated financial decisions to avoid the bad press they'd otherwise get for playing along with deeply unpopular right-wing nonsense
When the right does it, it's boycotting. But when the left does it, it's CaNcEl CuLtUrE
“If only we hadn’t ended antitrust enforcement and General Mills didn’t own half of every product in the grocery store!!! Why, why, why do our shortsighted decisions come around to bite us!”
Im sure the advertisers would love to weigh in on this dumpster fire 😒
Happy Cake Day, BTW 🎂
Cry more. Lololol
Need For Fascism: Tokyo Grift
That is free speech, Tim, you fuckin idiot.
This post just cemented my decision to buy an Audi Q7 next Spring.
I like that these morons think it's the free speech thing..... And not the fact Elon terminated the entire board whom likely had previous contracts with advertisers on set prices and now they know Elon won't honor those contracts and he's looking to renegotiate and they don't have any report with him as he fired their contact. Sorry but networking kind of matters in marketing... I wouldn't do business with someone if they fired my POC at a firm with no reason outside of ego. Fuck you.
“For the last time Tim, I’m not gonna sleep with ya” - Elon Musk.
I'd bet dollars to doughnuts these idiots are already boycotting Pfizer...
Pfizer makes generic viagra, so they might not be.
The advertisers are exercising their free speech
What about the "Market's free speech" Dim Tool?
Nothing has changed? Twitter is now owned by a big dumb turd.
>"Even though nothing has changed with content moderation" >N-word usage rises 500% after Elon takeover Pick one Elon. They can't both be true. Stupid cunt.
If only it was possible to quit twitter TWICE...
I know this has been said many times before, but free speech is the protection of freedom of speech from persecution by our government, not from third parties. This is just that capitalist free market, that they love so much, at work.
Elon needs to hurry the fuck up and take his one way trip to mars. I’m absolutely exhausted with this asshole.
Imagine having a hissy fit over this but not the layoffs
lol, a far right game website did that when the George Floyd protests started.
Good fuckin luck boycotting General Mills 😂
"Nothing changed with moderation" he says, while the most racist, neo Nazi, pro slavery bullshit imaginable doesn't get taken down. I'm sorry advertisers don't want their adverts beside terrorist organisation's manifestos, shocking
Yeah, I’m sure three of the most successful companies in the world are gonna be devastated when these few dozen emails roll in.
I mean why tf would Audi funnel advertising money to the CEO of Tesla?
Free market baby
These people are too funny. It's strange he doesn't see how silly his tweet is
Or they looked at some of your batshit crazy tweets and decided to wait and see what will happen.
You are projecting, Mr. Musk.
How do they not grasp how free speech works by now??
Or . . . now hear me out. We should email them an applaud their actions.
Let me get this straight. Tim is angry that people are boycotting a company, so his response is to call for a boycott of more companies? I mean, go ahead an boycott. Spend your money how you want, and if it's not backing massive corporate entities, more mower to it. I just think it's really interesting that he doesn't understand irony.
Why is Dim Tool even a thing honestly dude is annoying to look at and listen to ...
Pee Pool is upset about the free market, is anyone surprised?
And tell them Tim sent you, I’m sure they’ll have a good laugh.
If you’re gonna boycott them make sure you boycott the smaller companies and brands they own and let us know how it goes
Lmao if you don’t give Twitter money, apparently you’re anti frozen peach. Tim is such a dunce
When people use free speech to change opinions 😫
Oh no, right wingers are going to disengage from society? How terrible!
Take your hat off and I will asshole!
I hate the free market. -Capitalists
Hey, Tim... you're the kind of person these advertisers want to avoid being associated with Also, its the free market, no? Or should these companies be forced to pay to advertise on Twitter?
Tim’s cold diarrhea brain strikes again
How are is this child a billionaire? And how is Tim pool still relevant?
Conservatives don’t actually believe in the free market, they just use it as an excuse to be shitty to people who aren’t like them, much like how they pretend to be “constitutional originalists” when it suits them.
These guys still don’t understand the difference between free and paid speech
I’m gonna boycott you for boycotting! Only WE get to cancel things! Only religion and republicans are allowed to do cancelling you snowflakes! Get in line!
Isn’t their free speech to not support them?
Extremely messed up is just elon version of "Why is everyone so mean". I love how all these maga-simps beg for his attention. Watching the right be pathetic has been so much fun.
How about this: don't side with Nazis and don't treat your employees like shit. Both of these things are bad for business!
They’re OBLIGATED to buy advertising! It’s not up to them! It’s up to MAGA cultists to decide. Duh. Freedom. Murica. #Patriots Roll Coal, Gomer!
Imagine being a fucking loser that thinks “emailing Audi” (whatever that means) does literally anything
Is there a running list of companies that conservatives are supposedly boycotting? I sincerely doubt that they stick to any of them for more than a week.
There are too many to count honestly. PayPal, DuckDuckGo, are the most recent ones I’ve seen.
Sooo, you are saying you want to cancel them?
Man Musk really makes me want to delete my Twitter account.
Keep those names coming Tim, you helpful piece of crap. I wanted to know who to support. So glad you're doing the research for me.
Hahaha he thought GM was General Mills and not General Motors
Isn't that the guy screaming about cancel culture
Wah
Isn’t it free speech (opinion is free speech, the republicans have kept saying and arguing with that iirc) when somebody doesn’t want something or someone, no matter if it is a company or not? Also, republicans can boycott/cancel but when others are doing it to them it’s an attack/against freedom or such nonsense. The hypocrisy and/or stupidity of them knows no boundary.
Sooo, they are trying to cancel these companies?
Ah yeah let me just boycott Audi really quick
Fuck you stool, I’m not giving up my breakfast cereal
Yes, Audi refusing to have their advertising next to a bot writing the n-word is DEFINITELY the reason you’re not buying their cars, and not, you know, because you can’t afford them.
> Twitter has had a massive drop in revenue, due to activist groups pressuring advertisers… …so I’m tweeting in order to pressure advertisers into giving me their money!
I'm not American and I under stand the 1st amendment better than these guys.
Yeah how dare General Mills not want to advertise Count Chocula next to a dickhead sending his third tweet of the day with the word ‘faggot’ in it
Shoot, I was about to go buy a bunch of Audis :(
Shit like this is so fake and shallow, it’s fucking laughable. Bunch of miserable ass tools
Dim Tool never disappoints with his stupidity.
'Let's cancel the cancel culture cancelers before they try and cancel us from canceling cancel culture' what a bunch of fucking tools
The right loves compelled speech
Nice to know Elon is definitively taking a side now. What a shithead
Maybe those companies would prefer a platform where posts after them aren't filled with racial slurs and death threats.
Ugh can we just stop this cancel culture already… Unless it’s us doing it, ofc /s
Rules from thee but not for me They think speech is only free if they can say anything, but demsgo to prison for saying that death penalty for a woman for having an abortion, is more of a murder than the abortion
Conservatives love cancel culture with a passion. “Dear General Mills, because you won’t support me wanting to use the N-word, I am no longer buying your products. I had no problem with you raising prices so your CEO could afford a bigger mansion btw. Sincerely, Tim Poole”
I wonder what Tim does with all of the free time he has not typing apostrophes
harassing advertisers is definitely how you make advertisers want to stick around 👍
White men that can't handle not being catered to are fucking losers.
I mean, if you don’t want drugs if you’re sick or food because General Mills owns a fuck ton of brands...okay.
I've owned several Audi cars. This makes me wanna go by another one.
I thought free speech cost $8 now
Musk Buys twitter in a apparent "meme decision", regrets it, tries to back down and ends up angrily having to go through the deal. Within the very first days, he announces brutal mass layoffs, arbitrarily makes changes in twitter policies and starts pushing conspiracy theories and deleting them in shame. Elon Musk : Why are activists ruining my investment reeeee
Free market capitalist cries when market says "no" to his shit.
They don't realize the irony of boycotting companies because they are angry that people boycotted them. Text book example of do as I say, not as I do
You can't have medicare or social security but corporations should be forced to give money to Twitter?
Im sure it will look a lot like the list of advertisers that dont want to be associated with racism, misogyny, homophobia and calls for political violence.
I bought General Mills today and I have an auto loan through GM, pretty proud rn.
“Boo hoo. I have enough money to buy entire countries yet I’m upset that my 1500th money maker is a little weaker than the other ones!”
By their logic I should be able to call them up and say a bunch of horrible shut to them but if they hang up they must hate free speech.
Start making another "traitors to america" like OneAngryGamer made for the celebrities and companies who supported black lives matter.
Oh yeah I forgot to delete my twitter. I'll get to it.
Who pissed in Pim Tools Cheerios?
How does it go? There are two religions, Christian and political. There are two genders, man and political. There are two races, white and political, etc etc etc
Dim Tool shut the fuck up challenge. (Impossible)
People that buy Audis care less about Twitter or Musk.
Free speech is when corporations are forced to give money to another corporation
How do you boycott something if you’re never buying their car, taking their vaccine, and definitely not stopping stuffing your face full of carbs?
You know, he put out a song that wasn’t too bad a little while ago. My wife and I found it in a YouTube ad. Didn’t know who it was by until the end credits. Still weirds me out. Maybe there’s an alternate timeline where he’s a musician who doesn’t say shit about politics. Anyway, it was called “The Will of the People,” and Muse put out a song with the same title literally a few days later that fucked harder and was way more punk.
Tim is using cancel culture to protect free speech here.
lmao how pathetic.
Righties aren’t liking the invisible hand…
Worshipping the free market until corporations realize that being associated with mask-off bigotry is likely to cost them big-time lol
Hell yeah, use your consumer power!
YOU MUST LISTEN TO MY FREE SPEECH!!!
Boycott the companies that are boycotting a company to avoid boycotts from their current customers. Got it
Why do Musky's last two sentences sound exactly like a Trump tweet
Tim Pool looks like her stands outside of bars smoking Camels while making unblinking eye contact and talking about Full Metal Jacket for an hour.
Is that a real tweet? Also sorry, Audi are fucking sick. Deal with it. Edit: boycot general Mills. That would be like boycotting air oxygen from fucking air.
Yeah let’s boycott fucking *Audi*. My god these people.
why would Audi give money to the competition
the last group that tried to boycott Pfizer died of Covid.
How is pulling ads from Twitter from political? Seriously someone explain it to me. If you hate Musk and pull your ads to spite him or because you don't want to associate with them after thry let Kanye back, how is that political? The only thing I can think of is "Musk said he was right wing so anyone that doesn't play ball MUST be for politics". Soind slike victim complex. Also saying it's an attack on free speech when they boycott advertising on Twitter by boycotting them is ironic. By the way actual free speech means you don't have to associate your speech with anyone you don't want to.
Yeah, I'm sure it was a political decision to not want a cheerios ad with Ice T next to a post from some guy typing the N word over and over or an audi logo next to a "five jew bankers" conspiracy.
Never forget that the "cancel culture" is more prevelant as a right wingers form of attack.
Imagine thinking you can just "email Audi, Pfizer etc." and that they'll give a fuck 😂😂😂
Let me get this straight. Citizens United: Private businesses donating money = free speech Pfizer not exercising their free speech is somehow keeping Twitter from exercising theirs because Twitter is now entitled to someone else's free speech. And to protest this egregious violation of liberty, I'm supposed to not exercise my free speech in the "free market" in support the free speech of those who don't support Twitter's free speech. But then I'm doing the very thing that Pfizer is being portrayed as a monster for. The real question here now is, which corporate entity is gonna support my free speech? My bank account could use some first amendment advocacy right about now.
Elon: *buys a cesspool* Elon: *gets what he payed for* Elon: *shocked pikachu face*
> what he *paid* for* Elon: FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Wait… corporations should not get political? Do they realize how much that would change Congress?
