    Engineered Outrage: “The Outrage! The Outage!”

    The what? What does it matter apart from nonsense?

    The same goes with advertisements.

    Yet Apple continues to profit from movies, music, books and podcasts riddled with racial slurs.

    Couldn’t he have spent like a couple of billion and made a new app from the ground up rather than buy Twitter ? Like he could have saved 40bn easily as this dumpster fire x is gonna get bankrupt soon.

    If he doesn’t have a mental illness I’d be shocked

    People hoping that X gets taken off the App Store don’t realize that, if the rumors are true, it can be side loaded in the very near future… 😂

    They’re the only proper company that I see on there. All the rest of the advertisers are shitty Chinese gadgets.

    It’s hard to tell they were even advertising in the first place.

    80% of the ads on Twitter now are self-promo’s, crypto scams, and start ups.

    It’s no wonder the company is sinking in debt

    Musk is the worst thing to happen to the internet, and Twitter.

    His free speech mandate, is allowing hate speech to proliferate.

    Yet they are still on Facebook and Instagram. The US government lost control of Twitter and are looking for ways to silence the platform.

    They said this a year ago and then when the iPhone cycle picked back up it was constant Apple ads. I don’t believe them.

    At this point, Apple should just buy Twitter at a bargain basement price and restore it to what its previous state (flawed as it was).
