- This is a bit outside what we normally cover, but it was too funny not to talk about. During a recent interview, Elon Musk made his thoughts clear about advertisers, specifically Disney, threatening to pull their support for Twitter if it doesn't bend to their will. Turns out, threatening the world's richest man isn't a great move.
I LOVE when he asks “so people will boycott Disney” and he says “they already are.” 🙌
I cancelled my D+ last night and got Twitter blue. Saved me $51 total :)
Disney openly admitted in the SEC meeting they value pushing their agenda over profit. Now they’ve just killed one their most effective forms of marketing. They really are trying to go bankrupt.
Yeah the park attendance says other wise. Great take there
"Disney's attendance has dropped substantially,” with some attendees reporting impacts at Disneyland and other parks, with Disney World appearing more like a “ghost town” than a thriving tourist destination.
@@jbarlak park attendance is in the toilet just like the stock! That investor disclosure says they’re fucked.
The funniest thing is that host was just grilling Bob Iger before Elon came out. He was asking Iger hard questions and completely throwing Iger off his game. Then Elon comes out and leaves him speechless.
It's gonna be really funny in a few years. 'Cuz his "game" is the verbal ballet of corporate non-statements... and once people start using AIs to summarize what he's *ACTUALLY* saying in brief as he's saying it?
The subtitles are going to make such a mockery of his only skill, I might actually start to feel sorry for his ilk.
@@ephraimwinslowI wouldn’t feel sorry for a guy with zero discernible talent who has billions of dollars anyway.
@@ephraimwinslowAI IS his game. X is not his only tool in his toolbox. If you think it is, you don’t know Musk. All those people using AI will be paying him to use it. For the most part, it’s his baby and he will capitalize on it. Just watch. Want to invest in something? Invest in AI.
@@ephraimwinslow most people with an iq over 80, know musk is full of shit... its just he has a loyal army of investors who have their savings tied up in musks every move, so they are beholden to the king of dorks or face poverty.
Andrew Ross Sorkin is actually a really solid interviewer. I think he was just a little startled by how explicit Elon was and didn’t know how to respond
I love that we literally saw an NPC have a 404 error and a system crash.
For me the most profound line from Musk was: "What I care about is the reality of goodness, not the perception of it. And what I see all over the place is people that care about looking good while doing evil."
Coming from a man who pretends to care about the environment whilst flippantly flying around the country in his private jet, belching out carbon emissions? Yeah, that's rich. About as rich as he is. Or was, lol.
@@JohnGardnerAlhadis Cuck harder for the Globalist Fascists, beta-boy.
@@JohnGardnerAlhadis I'm wondering how would you solve this conundrum.
@@JohnGardnerAlhadis Coming from someone who probably does way less for the Environment than he does (aka a nobody writing a self righteous comment). That's what's really rich.
@@Sekir80 Not trusting billionaires who make shaky promises and keep missing deadline after deadline would be a start...
I can't believe you guys didn't react to the best part, where Elon says:
What I see all over the place is people who care about looking good while doing evil.
That was the best part of the whole thing.
That's America. The biggest perverts are in government but make laws that censor sex
Yeah, that part got me pumped up. Finally, someone in power with balls of steel and no tolerance for the horrible hypocrites in media who’s willing to call them out live on television.
Pretty sure they did it later in the vod
You do realise that Elon is a Russia and China shill. He is the epitome of doing evil while trying to look good.
You don’t save the planet while building 3 ton high performance fire bombs.
It's sad though it took the richest man on the planet to have the nerve to tell them off in person.
We've fired our biggest gun, what now?
The most telling part of this clip was the dumbfounded shock from the audience of media goons, who couldn't even wrap their mind around defying corporate orders.
They mostly can't understand how Musk can say something so stupid, and continue to drive his company into ground, because we may not have a high opinion of most leaders, but most of them at least clear the bar of appearing to have an understanding of the business they supposedly run.
@@paweld IMO Elon knows and even knew how powerful it is to controll X/Twitter! Because it is controlling the information "game" by owning the narrative in that way!
I think he is fully aware of that power! and the fact that he has FU money is also key now! "tell it to earth"!
@paweld cope and seethe hahaha your “high opinion of most leaders” is exactly the kind of “looking good while doing evil” BS that Elon was talking about in this same interview
@@paweld Richest man in the world. Worth $200 billion. But sure, you, an internet nobody, knows better than him.
@@paweld These are media people-- many of them "journalists". And they were gobsmacked at the idea that someone might willingly offend the powerful. It was pathetic.
I always wondered if the media would have been more openly critical about Disney's current state and movies, if they didn't reveive massive amounts of money thorugh contracts and/or advertisement deals.
It is basically what Elon said here: you want me to not criticise you or have a certain opinion, just because you pay me money? That is not how I really feel.
He was the first one that actually had the guts to say it was Blackmailing. Kudos to him.
He said the quiet part out loud. They were trying to blackmail him with money. That's how a lot of these studios and advertisers get their way. It's good he doesn't want to dance to their song.
@@hope-cat4894 and yet nobody cares about muskrat. He's a whining manbaby because money is flying away from twitter because of his autism
To use a very British expression, they all pee in the same pot.
At the end of the day they depend on the individual spending money with them. Or if you are a government forcing individuals to pay money to them.
Tons of these media outlets must have received enough money that it was worth more than their reputation.
Can you imagine being a movie reviewer and lying to your audience for a decade or more about all of disneys movies?
“The marvels is great!” You might not think it’s that bad, oh it’s just a movie all they did was waste 40-100 dollars to watch it. But if you make me waste my money and my time I will never listen to you again, and if no one visits your website then you get no ad money so you become even more dependent on the company that is bribing you to give their movie good reviews
Disney pulling add money from x has nothing to do with their shitty movies. X is run like a shitshow.
There's more to the quote. When Musk calls out people for wanting to look like they're for good while doing evil I was speechless. Its such a pithy description of the way the world is.
Yes exactly. Cathartic really that these words are finally said out loud to these people.
you mean, just like he is doing?
@@TheNightman. In what way is that what he is doing?
So just like him ? He's done lots of nasty shit but I'm sure you fine with it because he posts memes on twitter.
@@TheNightman.What's that? Taken away the power of leftist government and the CIA to basically control Twitter with their narratives/propaganda, while silencing anyone not leaning far left. Elon has opened X up to everyone equally, rather than the right or even centrist's being silenced. How evil of Elon.
The funniest part for me wasn't the expletive, it when he said "you want to blackmail ME...with MONEY?", he was pretty much saying, "do you know how much I'm worth? Do you think monetary blackmail could ever work?" 😂
nobody was trying to blackmail him though?
@@arobin6695 threat of force to coerce someone ? Yes, blackmail.
@@forsakenquery what threat? what coercion? what were they asking him to do?
@@arobin6695 They were begging him to bend the knee. And he responded by saying, "I am the King."
look up the difference. Blackmail is correct. They are saying they have something on him - not just change your behavior but you have sinned against US!
Im not the biggest Elon Musk fan, but i loved his response. That's literally the reason why everything is so f'd up right now: advertisers and investors holding businesses hostage with their money, forcing them to tow the party line.
Elon can afforf to say that, but where the rubber meets the road is if anyone else is going to weather the financial hit to do whats right, which i doubt. Nothing is really going to change unless more businesses stand up to this
But like... that's literally the point of capitalism, no? Getting enough money to be able to, as you say, take usinesses hostage. If they don't want to be hostages, they should make more mmoney
Toe the party line, not tow. Look up "expressions people get wrong"
@@Grasslander I looked up "smug pedantic twat" while I was at it and I saw your picture
Remember, a lot of these advertisers have been yielding to small, vocal pressure groups that are threatening boycotts of their products if they advertise on Twitter/X or other platforms that disagree with their agendas!
@@TraditionalAnglicanThey pander to the tiniest vocal minority of crazies who aren’t even going to buy their products in the first place. That’s what has happened with Disney, they pander to the alphabet mafia who don’t have kids, instead of families which have been their bread and butter.
Elon only said what many have been thinking they’d say to these companies.
Big W for him!😂
Truth. I think Elon can be deceiving but I do like seeing him stand up to a lot of bullshit.
I hope he can keep exposing these crooks.
Coward companies!
Musk doesn't give a shit he says whatever gets his name in the media. You fanboys are fucking hilarious.
these companies need to get their heads out their asses, the woke far left mentality will destroy your business, people dont' want it, when left leaning countries are bring in more right ward leaders tells you much. Shout of Canada, we are against Liberal party our PM destroyed our country with hyper inflation, housing situation and etc. People are waking up and want vote conservative now, its beautiful sight, enough of this woke garbage.
When the NY Times threatened google in the same manner, this is what they should have said. Instead, they not only complied with the NYT, but gave them premium exposure.
Google used the NYT as deflection. The NYT is a tool used by the Globalists and Google is one of the Globalists. You need to bone up on tactics of war. And yes, we are at war with them, the Globalists. Do you really think The NYT has the muscle to take on and beat the juggernaut industry of Google? Silly boy.
The same race that dominates the NYT's boardroom also holds key positions in Google. The race that in polls is the most leftist, the most anti-White, the most pro-immigration, the most pro-homosexuality, the most anti-gun ownership for the law-abiding, the most anti-bail, the most anti-free speech "for hate speech," the most hateful toward Evangelicals (White conservatives) so they're rated lower than even Muslims, and of course the most pro-Israel, and the most in favor of the neocon wars and sanctions against pro-Palestinian countries. The neocons being the same race, of course.
Elon, unfortunately, seems to absorbed every ounce of testosterone in Silicon Valley. Leaving nothing but meek cowards running every other tech giant.
Bullying companies would be much less effective if more leaders were based and told the verbal aggressors to shut up.
Google’s response should also be x’s response: “Okay New York Times will no longer appear in Google search results. Elon just just suspend all Disney corporate accounts and those of any actors/writers/directors employed by them as well.
It's not blackmail. It's extortion. These people are mobsters. But also, the companies that advertise forget that they are also companies that can be "canceled" as well.
You have to ask what party these mobsters belong to and support...?
What? Is Musk entitled to their money? They can advertise wherever they want.
@@fajastata2Free market until they don't like where the market goes.
@@fajastata2 He never said he was entitled to it, he told them to fuck off...
@@newage44 you don’t have to ask that, we all know
I love how he turns his head and speaks directly to the ones in the audience
My grandfather was the first I ever heard employ that phrase. 60 years later it hasn't lost a gram of ginger.
Little Platoon nails it here. Knowing the context behind the event makes Elon’s comment 1000 times more potent.
Isn't it wild how speechless the dude and crowd get simply by witnessing somebody express they can't be bought??
Makes you wonder
I've noticed that a lot of people assume everyone else is thinking in terms of sex or money. I think they're projecting their own materialism onto everyone else.
@@vagrant1943 Yeah. They cannot fathom the world of moral concern.
@@vagrant1943 exactly!
Feels more like embarrassed silence tbh…Elon trying to be cool and failing. Twitter is fucked with falling ad revenue and he knows it but a rampant ego can’t admit any fault. Oh, my actions have consequences?!?! That’s blackmail!!! …..and the cretins lap it up.
I love that line from Disparu regarding the "ads next to a 'post' being the same as endorsement". If the ads shown with Critical Drinker were in "lock step" with CD's videos, I had 4Ocean and World Wildlife Fund ads before the video.
Oh shoot, their not? I just donated to the WWF because I thought they specifically endorsed the drinker's every word.
Threatening Elon with money is like trying to drown a shark.
Call it corporate media...... You guys are the new mainstream
Elon just said what we all want to say to the elites in Western nations.
+1
It's entertaining and cathartic. It's also kayfabe. Elon is the elite from an elite family that have been ideologues for the project of Technocracy going all the way back to his grandfather at least. This is WWE. Still entertaining, though
Elon is the definition of elite, what in the clown boy are you even thinking. His family gave him an apartheid emerald mine in Africa right
The expression on that interviewers face was priceless. He looked like he peed himself. Hilarious stuff. Good for Mr. Musk.
he was shocked that musk would say something so stupid in front of his shareholders
@@arobin6695 no he was in shock because he spoke what every one thinks, out loud for ALL the world to see. Thats what they mean by "f&%k off money". Elon can tell the truth and not give a toss about the repercussions. The share holders can bitch and moan, even remove him from the board because "he tanked the stocks with his comments" and he DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT. It was the same moment that the bitch interviewer had when she tried to destroy Jordan Peterson on the TV, and had nowhere to go, because all that was left was the truth. the "oh snap" moment, if you will.
Disney is no more required to pay and advertise on Twitter than I am required to pay and see a Disney film.
It's not that Elon Musk has a lot of money, which he does; it's that he has a moral compass, which they don't. That's the big difference!! Millions of people around the world are being heartened by this and are finding the courage to step up and do their part, whether big or small, and say "enough, we're changing this"
Well said.
He owns his stuff ups. He's feral - untamed and dances to his own music. He's open where he can be without incurring the wrath of law courts and regulatory bodies.
It will be interesting to follow this event - just to see who comes out swinging.
I believe this is a huge turning point - Elon has made his stand - a huge army of keyboard warriors from all over the world are uniting - waiting for which alphabet corporation gonna have a tantrum about our human right to free speech.
He also made a great comment about doing actual good instead of pretending to do good while actually doing evil. That was clearly aimed at the media, Disney, etc. I am all for it, but it's kind of amazing.
Here's I saw it. Elon was looking to accomplish the following from his declaration:
1. He wants to know the size of the battlefield and who will rally to him.
2. He wants to see what immediate action his supporters will take.
3. He wants to see how the opposition responds.
4. He wants to target any high-profile people who stick their heads out. (He does have their tweets of the last 15 years, after all....)
Here's how I see it. Elon feels entitled to receive money from advertisers, regardless of his mismanagement of Twitter. He is incapable of getting it though, and this upsets him.
@@paweld Your comment requires elaboration in order to be taken seriously. What indicates any feelings of entitlement from Elon to make this statement anything other than a personal attack on him? In what way has he mismanaged Twitter, without elaboration you seem to just be stating your opinion as a fact.
@therotten6152 Nope, just some guy who is tired of Musk's bullshit.
@@SunwardRanger83 Sure. His feelings of entitlement are evidenced by his label "blackmail" when confronted with advertisers begging him to do something about rampant hate speech on his social media platform which community management he's crippled by firing crucial members of staff, while retweeting posts from well known anti-semites and conspiracy theorists, that has resulted ( in combination with other questionable decisions on his part ) in Twitter losing over half of its value in a short time, which I'd call gross mismanagement.
@@paweld Entitled implies only one side benefits. This involves 2 parties - X and Disney. One side gets revenue - the other side gets mass exposure.
Here's how I see it - one side moved the goal post - to manipulate free speech.
Elon's mismanagement of Twitter exposed CIA and WH for exactly the same thing Disney tried to do.
Do you get the picture now?
I've been boycotting Disney for years now. I'm glad the world is catching up
Most disappointing thing about the Disney boycotts for me, couldn't join because I already was.
I only joined around 2015, but I’ve done it since then.
Since 2011 never paid a cent to them.
Elon at the store: I would like item.
Cashier: Ok, that will be x amount of dollars.
Elon: Fuck you! That's blackmail! I deserve to have this item!
Us, clapping: Wow! What a brave man! He has truly broken the programming!
That host needed his fainting couch and smelling salts
Elons F.U was a YUUUGE advertisement for FREEDOM.
This is gonna down well with the Stock Holders !! After all they've lost 200 billion of there value ... And look like there gonna have a boardroom scuffle !!
"But, but, but... money." lol
Very well articulated! I resonate and agree with everything you said! Bless you ppl for defending critical thought and freedom of speech!
It’s incredibly how delusional individuals and corporations can be once one decides to conduct actions, power or influence within their bobbles
To be fair, Elon doesn't have the FU money. His money is mostly in Tesla, he had to borrow money from investors for X. If X shuts down, he'll have to sell more share's, the board of directors/shareholders might have to ask Elon to step down from Telsa. It a tricky situation. Despite all this, he's still sticking it to the man
Tax write-offs.
A very astute observation.
@@just_another_watch_nerd6604💯💯
His dad is rich
It's not even about that, it's about saying:" i am not going to sell myself for money, i have my pride" . Btw people won't stop using X, not for some years, the advertisers must comply, not X. Not even a fan of Elon Musk, but i respect the power play
I'm not the biggest fan of Elon Musk but I absolutely love when he does stuff like this. It just leaves people in shock and they don't know how to react and that's the best comedy
We don't have ti agree 100% of the time to agree on certain things. Hehe.
Dude is weird, he talks about how scary AI could be yet wants to connect digital augmentations to your brain directly to where it will be born…. Wtf?
The idea being that if you make AI separate from humans, it will operate separate from humans.
But if you make AI and humans one entity, you plug human morality directly into the machine.
This is basically the real world version of Tony Stark telling Congress to f**k off. 😂
Or Nick Fury telling the World Security Council that he's ignoring their "stupid-a** decision." 😁
@@hope-cat4894 👊😆
The craziest part about it is that Twitter wouldn't be facing the same allegations of Antisemitism if Musk hadn't bought it. The same antisemitism would be going on with twitter not facing any of these problems bc it's the woke people saying it for the most part.
Elon is actively liking anti-Semitic posts. That's why he's drawing so much criticism and deservedly so. No other CEO would be so stupid to behave this way.
@@gunkulator1that's the double edge of free speech. But the double standards of the Left. When a Palestine supporter openly says "from the river to the ocean" they are openly supporting the genocide of all Israeli jews. No one bats an eyelid.
@@gunkulator1 Who the F are you and what are you smoking? Israel recently rolled out the red carpet for Musk.
@@gunkulator1 "oy vey any criticism of Israel is anti-semitism! pls gib shekels!"
@angmori172 You're already showing your projection with that comment. Besides, retweeting a conspiracy theory about world Jewry isn't criticizing Israel, it's agreeing to propaganda that's been spread for over a hundred years.
Excellent show, and excellent guests. I have to say, Critical's shows and guests are always higher caliber, higher intelligence and better discussions way, than Nerdrotics round table 4 hour shows. I don't dislike Nerdrotic, but his get together s just are MISSING something that I hear with Critical's guests on shows like this. Its much more highbrow, polite, LESS CURSING and to the point with less bawdy jokes. This is why I like Critical Drinker and his guess more than others.
The public has already abandoned disney.
The best part is the beta male little hat with the crossed legs from the NYT not knowing how to react, as if he expected Elon to beg for Disney/Vanguard/Blackrock money.
When you have "eff you" money, you can say "eff you."
I'm sure this be a comfort to his laid off employees after Elon is done running Twitter/X into the ground.
@@gunkulator1 Just because you're a whore doesn't mean Elon is wrong.
I sincerely hope Elon offers massively discounted ad time to all direct competitors.
The interviewer's programming glitch is my favorite part and I think the most genuine insight into how they just can't imagine a world where the advertisers don't control everything. I hope Elon switches X to subscription only. $5/mo. for basic X would generate billions and completely free the company from being beholden to anyone else.
Like a robot getting hit by a paradox question.
Elon is showing how the "woke mob" needs to be dealt with. Just stand up and refuse to bow down!!
...while losing billions of dollars in the process. That'll show 'em!
@@gunkulator1 Elon is a part of the woke mob himself, he litterly turned his little son into a girl and wanted to put chips in his children's heads
@@gunkulator1 this mindset is the reason why the fake virtue signaling woke dishonest propaganda machine is still alive. congratz dude
@@gunkulator1some things are worth the lost money. Not that you would understand.
@@tomaszwota1465 If it was only his money at stake, sure, let the fool and his money be parted asap. It'll be fun to watch. But Musk has hundreds of employees who are going to be out of a job if he continues to mismanage Twitter/X the way he has. But maybe you too are also a billionaire so you wouldn't understand.
The capitalist view, though, is that these companies are quite within their rights to take their money wherever they want. It is Elon's job to attract advertising revenue, not the advertiser's responsibility to advertise with him.
They are within their rights. And he’s allowed to think they’re doing it for reasons outside of what is actually best for their businesses
There’s a difference between AN advertiser pulling ads because it’s not a good fit.
It’s another thing for advertisers to collude together to pull ads to tank a company, all while keeping ads on other platforms that sexualize children.
That’s not capitalism. That’s free market. Which we have never had. The fed manipulates currency and rates constantly. Maybe read a book.
@@Poopoocachoo Musk is far too much of a narcissist to ever admit he's made a mistake. I can't be wrong so it must be a massive conspiracy against me! Yes, that's it!
I don't see how you call it blackmail. It's no different than me not buying tickets to the Marvels. Elon is not entitled to their money just like Disney is not entitled to mine.
There is no debate that it was a big faux pax by Elon. Asking someone to spend their own money on your platform otherwise you will name and shame them is more blackmail than the them backing out due to their own priorities (whether their priorities are right or wrong is irrelevant) . Free speech includes ability to spend your own money as you want.
"Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty" - Joseph Goebbels. If Elon and co. don't want to be called Nazis, maybe they should stop taking advice from actual Nazis.
That "Hey Bob!" really made my day 😄
The Little Platoon is the best addition to the guest catalogue that I can remember. Huge fan.
It's about goddamn time someone stood up to the advertising blackmail
how were they blackmailing him? do you know what that word means?
@@arobin6695 don't be such a complete ass hat
@@chefsanders9151 do you know what blackmail means? cause apparently elon musk doesnt. companies can choose to put their ads wherever they want, that's their freedom of speech.
The refrain needs to be "I am a customer not a consumer. I won't buy what I don't want and I won't sell my attention against my own interest."
Im such a fan on this group of people. Such a solid line up. Solid group of British lads
I can't get enough of that clip and have watched it over and over. Finally someone with FU money who is NOT on the side of the liberal woke agenda !!
Funny when a trust fund "rich" guy who is coasting off money from the public sector and investors while sabotaging projects that would threaten his bottom line is lecturing anybody on anything...
And received handouts from the government for his startups.
To the topic of ads appearing next to each other. Here in Berlin we have a rotating ad colum, one ad is for an Undertaker "piety in the last days", and the next is "Dildoking - having a fun weekend". 😂 True story.
Anyone remembers how Ricky Gervais grilled Apple and others on Golden Globes in similar manner?
Rather Bob Iger that Elon Musk. May Elon fail in everything and end up brocken poor!
kudos to elon musk for saying this to advertisers
Yes. They should. Corporate blackmail is exactly what it is.
Compared to his other businesses; Tesla, SpaceX, etc. I’m sure that keeping X operating costs him couch cushion money.
No it's costing him massive amounts and it's his own fault
@@TheNightman. X is a private company so we have no idea what the numbers really area, but Google says operating costs are in the neighborhood of $750mn/year. The advertiser pullout is estimated to be around $75mn. 10% of your operating costs isn't nothing, but it isn't "massive amounts". X will be just fine. Elon will be just fine.
@jackinthebox301 how much revenue could twitter actually generate tho. What mayters ultimately is fcf
@@nayeemhasan2713 If 1% of X's roughly 500mn user base pays $10 a month for premium that's $50mn a month/$600mn per year. If the advertisers stop trying to extort Elon for believing different things than their corporate masters, you can double or even triple that $600mn figure easily.
We're talking a billion per year.
@@jackinthebox301 750mil/yr seems awfully excessive for a company that produces no physical product.
Man who sucks at running a media business has a tantrum on stage.
That was the 2023 version of the scene from Aliens (1986) with the great lines by Ripley (Sigourney Weaver)
. "I say we take off, nuke the site from orbit. ....Its the only way to be sure !!..."
DEI really stands for Divide Everyone Indefinitely.
Urgh, holding Musk up as some sort of paragon of reason is no win at all. He's as bad as they are.
8:40 is the MSM slow ignorant about the decline of mainstream cinema or is it intentional. Don’t offend your advertisers and corporate partners. Only admit something when a blind person can see it.
"I say we take off, nuke the site from orbit... only way to be sure" - Ripley
That's rich coming from elon, especially with the twitter/x fiasco
Elon fanboys somehow missing this clip was absolute cringe
What elon said is not wrong. People are already boycotting disney for various reasons.
Reads like a gag line:
An Irishman, a Scotsman, a Welshman and two Englishmen talked on a video stream... 😁
The one point you are missing is Russian bots have taken over X so why would anyone want to advertise on a cesspool.
Oh, so it's bad for advertisers to execute their right to freedom of speech? If they don't agree they can to pull their money.
I'm 70 and have kids as young as 12yrs.. I hear the kids berate these movies all the time and at the same time are astonished at the old ones and their quality. Old cartoons are especially praised. The money machine has no talent. They make garbage. They hope we won't notice?!
Independent (non-corporate) advertisers would love it if the corporate hacks left Twitter
Disney thinks it is good, but it is the bad guy.
Nah, they know, believe me. They know.
"Go ffff yourselves ... hi Bob" is the definition of ...
*Christmas coming early!*
Glad to see the Despot here! He is criminally underrated.
'We're withdrawing adverising!'
'Nah, it'll be fine.'
Well, if elons social media project fails, it is his fault, regardless of what he claims. But was nice to see some say FU to disney.
"b... But I'm paying as money!"
"and that gives you power over me?"
I think when Elon says "we will document this.." he's actually saying "see you in court"
booyah. remember, Disney is Iger, and who fired Gina Carano. yep. shots fired.
and then? Suing them for not advertising? Which law forces companies to put ads on Elons looney place?
Well, Twitter is gonna be even less profitable now. Good job, Elon. Such win. Much wow. Very impress.
Sorry, pyrric victories are dumb.
I guess he's tired of winning
@@sigurdkaputnik7022 I mean, if throwing a tantrum because people don't want to support antisemitism is winning, then sure, I guess.
Free speech... Ha ha sure isn't it bobs free speech to say "your not getting my dame money"?
No of course not because its not about kissing elons ass.
But you all have a common enemy so i understand the cheerleading.
In this case nobody wins and i can live with that. Bob doesn't get to spend propaganda and elon losses money.
We can survive just fine without Disney, but our societies cannot survive without freedom of thought, freedom of choice, freedom of faith and freedom of speech!
Musk is down $20 Billion in market value, now he is down $75 Million a month. That is on Elon, not Tim Cook, Bill Gates or Bob Iger
Yep. Those emperors don't have cloths or brains. Was impressed he said that!
So let me get this straight is X entitled to advertisers or are they free to choose what and how they spend there money on? I hate Disney but come on man.
No matter how u try to spin this, this was absolutely idiotic by Elon.
I'm sure you can buy X or Tesla and do better
I mean, I’d be smart enough not to directly insult my biggest advertisers
@@mulches1348 Why? Elon has stated he wants to move to a subscription model from the outset, and people will pay. It's bold but it's also a smart move to get people to give money to X if only as a protest against Disney et al

This was interesting. I'm not sure how I feel about it. On one hand he is refusing to go along with being forced to comply which I can get behind. On the other hand this seems like the same tactic Disney uses. "Oh you don't like my product? Well f$%& you!" It's never wise to turn on your customers and in this case the companies paying to advertise on X are his customers. Disclaimer: I haven't watched the whole interview yet.
Thank you Elon! I've been waiting for someone to stand up to these greedy pigs!
I'm convinced Elon has a poster of Francisco d'Anconia up in his bedroom.
Its absolutely mind boggling troubling and borderline insane that if you say a single thing speaking up against zionist israel your automatically labelled an anti-semite. How can people not see this a blatant problem and concern.
It’s like labelling critics of the CCP as sinophobic. Utterly ridiculous.
Disneys advertising costs just went up. Shareholders will be pissed.
New phrase for speak to. The hand “Hi Bob”.
Oh and X should give DW+ 50% off advertising.
Only way he could have topped this is if he added: "Also i am the Iron-man."
, im not sure but hitler wanabe wanted the crowd to cheer so he repeated himself, why we talking about this lets go back to waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa im 40 and my favourite movie cinderella has a dark girl
Please review:
Schindler's List (for its 30th anniversary)
Philadelphia (Also for its 30th anniversary)
Saving Private Ryan (For its 25th anniversary)
American History X (for its 25th anniversary and to see if its aged well or has become patient zero for "THE MESSAGE")
WTF is THIS??? Did drinker look thru my subs and assemble my avengers!?! Fkn awesome!!! Awesome 👍👍👍👍😎👍👍👍
When is someone going to do a Bane meme about Elon and Bob Iger? “And you think this gives you power over me?” 😂
I mean it´s sure fun to say "Go Fuck yourself!" to people who you perceive to be treating you wrong. However, this will probably be the final nail in the coffin for Twitter, as it already lost more than half of his value since Elon took over and continues to spiral into irrelevance, due to his erratic decisions. Twitter is much more dependent on Disney and other big advertisers, than those companies are on Twitter. The only reason, Elon can do stuff like this, is because money as a concept doesn´t exist for people like him anymore, so if he drives 44 billion into the ground just for fun, he couldn´t care less. I just feel sorry for the people who genuinely rely on the jobs that will ultimately be lost forever, once Elon is done having butthurt reactions to everyone who criticizes his weak ego...
Do you feel sorry for the entire generation of young adults conditioned to think censorship is the way to go about things and to hell with the 1st Amendment? Who kowtow to group think when debating BIG problems and nuanced ideas?
Do you feel sorry for the teens who have irreversibly butchered themselves bcoz trans? Buoyed on by platforms like old Twittier where swathes of accounts were being terminated daily for disagreeing with the gender spectrum lunacy. Deadnaming could've earned you the banhammer for chrissakes. Deadnaming!
What about the girls whose sporting aspirations were ruined by the same mass hysteria fanned by Twitter's unconscionable censorship regime? Got any feelz for them?
@@BigRamificationsyou are normal and cool
@@BigRamifications The 1st amendment always had boundaries and always will have boundaries. You are not allowed to scream "Fire!" in a crowded theatre. You are not allowed to go to a synagogue and scream "Hitler was right!" at everyone or follow your neighbour´s daughter around and scream "You deserve to be r*ped!" everytime you see her. There is no free speech absolutism and there never will be. It is always about "What are the boundaries?" Elon Musk has decided, that doing Nazi propaganda is within the boundaries of his platform now, while he was literally banning people for using the term "cisgender" or criticizing the Turkish dictator. Or journalists who were criticizing Elon for that matter. Be honest, you don´t care about free speech. The only reason why you like Elon, is because he is restricting the speech of the people YOU don´t like now...
@@BigRamifications Also funnily enough, when Erdogan tried to pull the same shit in 2014, Twitter was like "Fuck you!", so Erdogan literally had to shut the entire platform down in his country himself to avoid criticism. Meanwhile, Elon was sucking him off the entire time and banning regime critics left and right. Guess the woke lefties cared more about Free speech than Elon after all, huh?
"let earth judge you, if you destoy the company by blackmail"
This is the first time in my life on tihs planet, where i hear somebody talk to me when calling me "earth" human, instead of country, race, or nation.
Sometimes i forget that im from earth, and im part of the earth.
And the corporations also forget that we are all from earth, instead of just "rich and poor" types.
