  • Elon Musk has blasted advertisers boycotting the social media platform X following backlash over a tweet he made.
    “If someone is going to try and blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go f**k yourself,” Mr Musk said.
    “Is that clear? I hope it is.”
    This comes after some global companies paused advertising on social media platform X amid a growing boycott against the actions of its owner, Mr Musk.
    The entrepreneur provoked a fierce backlash after Mr Musk seemingly agreed with and amplified an anti-Semitic post.

    Just think about how much advertisers control what people see and talk about on platforms. By extension, they can control or, at the very least, support a narrative and most people are none-the-wiser. If a particular point of view is 'popular' on a platform, people just assume that's what the majority think, or if people aren't talking about something it must be less important and a less held view.

      Platforms work that way because 80% of household spending is done by mid age women/housewifes/suburban mummys. Aka Karen.

      Look at how advertisers pay politicians to pass laws that benefit them! For example, guns are the #1 killer of US children. Gun companies pay politicians to pass laws that make it easier for American kids to die, even while most Americans do not want their kids to die. Congress is supposed to work for the people that live in their district, not the companies that pay them the most money.

    He's an absolute legend! I don’t like or always agree with Elon Musk, but in this instance, I do and I stand by him 100%. The simple fact is that what can be taken advantage of, * *WILL* * be taken advantage of. Especially when politics and money are concerned. Sure, what Elon said may not have been "nice," but what he said genuinely needed to be said, out loud and publicly. And it’s something that really only has the impact it needs to if it is said by someone like him. It’s a cultural wake-up call that lies should not be believed and the big C-word should not be allowed simply because enough money and political influence were thrown at them.
    [Regarding Advertising]
    If people aren't aware, practically every major company and governmental entity has been fully "taking negative advantage of" the system of marketing and advertising for years. As Elon summarizes, advertisers are essentially blackmailing news outlets, social media platforms, and influencers. As someone who works in government, I can tell you that it’s never as simple as “Here’s (x) dollars to run our advertisement on your platform for (x) number of day(s), month(s), etc. at (x) frequency.” No, there’s almost always a full contract in place with lawyers involved. In that contract, 9 times out of 10, there will be a clause that stipulates that the business or governmental entity seeking to place an advertisement has full control and authority over the message they’re paying for, as well as how that message is to be taken and perceived. So for example, with the “most magical place on earth” company, any news outlet(s), social media platform(s), or influencer(s) that receive either monetary compensation or other perks and benefits from them, * *MUST* * actively “cens-or-ship” (yes, this word/term is actually actively C-worded on CZcams via the algorithm) any responses that are not in-line with the companies values and views. Ergo, anything that makes that company look bad.
    Another example is that there is usually a stipulation that whatever news outlet(s), social media platform(s), or influencer(s) run (x) major businesses or governmental entities advertisement, that news outlet(s), social media platform(s), or influencer(s) * *MUST* * self-advocate for that advertisement and the business or governmental entity. Meaning, that regardless if they actually believe in the message or not, and regardless if they actually like/use the product or service, they are required to publicly like it and post comments reviewing the business and/or its product(s) or service(s) positively. Failure to do one or both of these will result in that major business or governmental entity terminating the contract, withdrawing their financial support/benefits/perks, possibly suing, and most definitely blacklisting that news outlet(s), social media platform(s), or Influencer(s). Which, is essential blackmail. And yes, this is also gaslighting the general public via false advertising.
    ^ > All of this is what Elon Musk was talking about. Any company that wants to do business with X/Twitter, but then stipulates that they want to actively C-word free speech on * *HIS* * platform while controlling how that message is perceived by the public. Otherwise, if he refuses, they won't do business with him. So, that's why Elon says "No, F- them!" and "F- your money. I don't need it."
    Lastly,
    Interviewer: “You think they’re (the public) going to boycott Disney?”
    Elon Musk: “They already are!”
    LOL, that was an absolute hard smack to Robert Iger's face! Especially after he just publicly called Iger out on his Blackmailing tactics.

    In my world Elon Musk has gone from "Hero to Zero" and not because of this latest statement. His purchase of Twitter made him a Hero. The path to Zero. Musk should have kept his mouth shut and avoided any involvement in International Politics, unfortunately he didn't and that's unforgivable. I sincerely hope he's on a path to the bankruptcy court. Elon Musk is now an individual I utterly despise. Hero to Zero.

    Musk appears to be having a hard day. Poor man. Must be hard to be one of the richest men in the world , just to find out that not everyone is as controllable as he thought they would be. Lol.

      It's the exact opposite, they are the ones who were under the impression that they could control everyone by pulling out advertisement money and they were wrong. By " they" I specifically refer to the corporations that are controlled by Biden's party. They are corrupt and you are a moron for supporting the most politically corrupt groups on the planet!!
