I have access to an internet browser. How can I see that? Who orchestrated it? Which companies were coordinating things together?

> It was done exclusively for political reasons. Media Matters doesn’t care about anti-semitism, they’re a political lobby and their purpose is getting Democrats elected.

How do you know that? What was wrong with their reporting?




The argument is that you had to press refresh on your browser several times before a neo-Nazi post coincidentally lined up with an ad from Disney, and media matters just kept on doing it until they got the desired result. But aside from that, Musk isn’t even disputing it happens.


I still wondering if those advertisers set guardrails with Twitter regarding around which content they want to be shown. If not, then it is mostly the advertisers fault in my opinion.


It's so childish, it's like agreeing you lost an argument but then going "no you".


The scary thing is he got an extremely pro Trump judge in Texas, who is famous for making nonsensical rulings that even the current Supreme Court heavily disagrees with. So there’s a good chance he will win this and it will drag out in court for ages, despite the fact they are very obviously protected by the facts of the matter and the first amendment.
