General Motors, which competes with Musk's car company, announced it has 'temporarily paused' it's paid advertising on Twitter.

Companies doing this should be remembered for it.

The kind of wokeness that drives these decisions WILL find its way into production and quality of the product if it hasn’t already done so.

Woke companies will not tolerate competent workers.

GM (GOVERNMENT MOTORS) went broke a long time ago, I used to buy exclusively their products until they sold themselves to the DC CARTEL.

WON’T TOUCH THEM NOW!

I don’t think that will happen on Monday, maybe in a week or two. I’m guessing after the mid terms.

Especially one you don’t often use!

Twitter has partnerships and agreements with the letter agencies.
I seem to recall two or so articles some years back crowing about them.
This will be interesting to see play out.

Trump doesn’t need to come back to twitter, as long as people no longer get cancelled for re-posting Trump’s remarks from Truth Social.

That was the real threat to the left from free-speech platforms like gab, truth social and the rest: that something could grow viral over there and then overflow into Twitter and Facebook like a tsunami, from people who are on both.
