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

toothpicks,

They are just now realizing this?

HumbleFlamingo,

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.

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.

Maeve,

Ironically unironic. An accurate, if uncomfortable reminder of their history.

So, IBM walks into a Nazi bar, and after six drinks, slurrs to the bartender, “What’s with all the swastikas?”

It's all pro-Nazi content now.

ZeroCool,

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.

davehtaylor,

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.

TheWiseAlaundo,

Which is weird given IBM’s WWII history.

Deiv,

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

AnonStoleMyPants,

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.
