At least two brands have said they will suspend advertising on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, after their ads and those of other companies were run on an account promoting fascism. The issue came less than a week after X CEO Linda Yaccarino publicly affirmed the company’s commitment to brand safety for advertisers.
Ads for brands including Adobe, Gilead Sciences, the University of Maryland’s football team, New York University Langone Hospital and NCTA-The Internet and Television Association were run alongside tweets from the account that had garnered hundreds of thousands of views, CNN observed.
Spokespeople for NCTA and pharmaceutical company Gilead said that they immediately paused their ad spending on X after CNN flagged their ads on the pro-Nazi account.
“Paused” 🤣
Just gotta let the smoke blow over then it’s business as usual.
Maybe but it could also be carrot/sticking the Muskrat.
Fuck Adobe and their greedy CEO.

Go back and re-read my comment. I didn’t say any of that shit. I just hate Adobe. Though I can play the same game you’re playing:
Wow, marmo7ade thinks Twitter should be hosting Nazi content! Let’s get this Nazi banned!
I have no idea how their brain could possibly have made whatever insane conclusion it did. I’m gonna just assume it’s a bot.

Here comes the waterworks from the alt-right fanboys
You mean just like placed next to regular Twitter content?
It’s a Nazi bar now.
Bro, you better check your privilege and stop deadnaming X
The only socially acceptable deadnaming
Ignore this, I meant to reply to the other user.
Hahaha, the delete button does exist.
Does that make this delete button erasure?
I hope you have that same energy for actual human beings and aren’t just deepthroating corporation boot.
It’s a joke. And it’s funny.
NCTA and Gilead are an evil organization and an evil corporation. They should feel right at home with the Nazis.
But being honest is bad for business. Need to keep the beard on.

Someone needs to edit their new “logo” and add four lines at the extremities, just to see what it would look like.
Edit: Fashtag freeze peach
Hey don’t deface the X.org logo like that!
It doesn’t look as good as you would think. The spacing between the lines in the “X” logo aren’t evenly distributed, which means the added lines aren’t spaced properly either.
Take my word on it, the end result looks more like a dancing cactus than a specific symbol used during World War II.
That would not be the result I expected but a sort of “Pampa X” sounds way cooler anyway hehe.
Oh damn… This will catch on quick. Lol
You mean they appeared on Twitter?
X, you mean. It’s the core of a swastika.
I couldn’t help but catch the line that

And there’s literally an entire black market of veterinarians recommending a very specific antiviral to cat parents unfortunate enough to have their cats be among the 1% of the global cat population whose mutation of feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) to feline coronavirus (FCoV) brings about Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), and that specific life-saving treatment is behind Gilead Sciences’ refusal to release their patent to veterinary use…
This dumpster fire keeps getting hotter and hotter.
Just like the climate and oceans.
I wonder if it’s all linked in the multiverse?
🤣🤣
When the platform you are on can’t seem to figure out its own brand, maybe it is time to move on?
Two groups of “people” who deserve each other soulless brands and elon.
Don’t worry Linda Yaccarino will sort it all out
Before or after she finds the glass cliff?
FWIW, the Nazi account has now been suspended.
Yeah, but Twitter is just a nazi safe haven under Musk. Elon Musk and Tesla have no problem associating themselves with nazis.
Who would imagine Nazis in electric vehicles was the future. Fun fact nazis were early adopters of the vegan lifestyle.
Well considering BMW and Mercedes were once war manufacturers for the OG Nazis and are now breaking into the EV market…I’d say it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch of the imagination.
Was it really nazi, or was it “nazi”? What did they post?
Edit: lol OK
which has shared content celebrating Hitler and the Nazi Party.
So, only mildly nazism. Damn news media always exaggerating everything.
In that time 500 were created
Very probably.
this surprises no one whos been paying any attention
Make Twitter Ban Again
Glad they suspended their advertising. A good decision.
