IBM, a major advertiser on X, has pulled its spending from the social media platform, whose employees are grappling with what to tell its other advertisers, according to internal messages.
To be clear: Musk endorsed a tweet which used a false antisemitic conspiracy theory to tell people why “Hitler was right”
I just wonder why Linda Yaccarino would continue to stay with a ship that’s going down? I mean she has to think about how this reflects on her own reputation in the business world.
She’s getting a base pay of $6 million per year, plus the potential to double that in bonuses. She’s 61 years old. I expect she’ll go home rich and retire.
or she’s also a weird bigot
In my opinion, when you prioritize money over values, it’s just bigotry with more steps.
At least the end result is the same, even if the motivation is potentially different.
The two are not mutually exclusive. https://newrepublic.com/post/172699/linda-yaccarino-reported-twitter-ceo-right-wing-tendencies
Yeah it’s a “¿Porque no los dos?” situation.
Yeah. The wealthy are just horrible people generally. I don’t understand how people don’t get it at this point. Thinking that there will be any moral consequences for their actions. Completely ignores their pattern of action. You don’t get to be wealthy without being a shitty person generally. And if you are expecting shitty people to stop associating with shitty people. You are expecting disappointment. I think it’s a fair bet that she won’t retire. Probably move up to CEO of some other shell for another payout. I mean why wouldn’t you when being CEO doesn’t require actually running a company successfully.
