Musk has already done the Cleavon Little* to his own brand.



* Black actor who played the sheriff in Blazing Saddles. Took himself hostage at gunpoint.

Nice brand you've got there. Shame if anything happened to it.

Facebook bagged Clegg when he lost his seat so they’ll be plenty of Tories perfectly suited to deputise for Musk and his dumpster operation.

Sarak Vine is moaning on Twitter because a former Hamas leader was able to buy his council house with the help of a discount on the price. She seems to forget that it was Margaret Thatcher who bought in the policy of selling off council houses at discounted prices to try and bribe the electorate.

X ad boycott gathers pace amid antisemitism storm

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-67460386

Firms including Apple, Disney and IBM have paused advertising on X amid an antisemitism storm on the site.

It comes after X owner Elon Musk amplified an antisemitic trope on the platform formerly known as Twitter.

The boycott has also been picking up steam in the wake of an investigation by a US group which flagged ads appearing next to pro-Nazi posts on X.

Mr Musk has denied his post was antisemitic and has threatened to sue over the advertising investigation.

On Threads but near enough. Discovered there is a sewer museum in Brussels and that is Bill Gates looking like a badly Photoshopped Bill Gates.

She must be on extremely good money to post this shit. Standing up for free speech by supporting a SLAPP.

They've filed the suit in a specific Texas district without and anti-SLAPP and with potentially friendly judges.

What I can't work out is how the suit has any merit. MMFA were upfront about their methodology, in that they followed a bunch of eight-buck chucklefuck Nazis with some new accounts, and refreshed their feed to see how the advertising would cycle. Xitter don't actually dispute this, but maintain that it represents a false user experience, because most people don't follow said Nazis, not do they refresh the timeline very often. Thing is the former is irrelevant when those ballbags show up in the replies and QTs, where they're boosted by the power of their blue idiot badges, and the latter is just plainly bollocks.

Curious to know why Gerald Ratner was trending.

This didn't end in the way he expected.

I see Guido Fawkes is trying to breathe life back into the corpse that is the Angela Rayner house “scandal”.

I hear that Gary Lineker's the real villain. (on twitter)

The task is to ensure the public keep believing ‘they’re all the same’ and ‘at it.’
