Elon Musk goes from puddle to puddle, even if that means the bankruptcy of his business. The tycoon doesn’t seem to care. Since he took charge of
Now, since mid-November, large companies such as Apple, IBM and Disney decided to suspend their advertising in X after a controversial comment by Musk that supported a conspiracy theory about Jewish communities. And the tycoon has an answer for all of them: “Fuck you.”
During the forum organized by The New York Times, Musk refused to answer in good faith the questions of the presenter, columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin, about the exodus of advertisers. Instead, he took advantage of the event to publicly charge against them: “Fuck you.”
The tycoon was happy with those who, until now, have been his advertisers. “Don’t advertise. Don’t advertise. If someone is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, better blackmail me with money,” he said. And he insisted on his message: “Was it clear? I hope so.”
The owner of X also had no qualms about pointing out some company executives. “Hey Bob, here in the audience,” Musk added. The American media claim that he was pointing out Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, one of the companies that would have withdrawn the advertising after the controversial anti-Semitic tweet.
After his controversial intervention, Musk admitted that if large companies continue with their boycott, the social network could disappear, but he trusted that “the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company.” “Let’s see how the Earth responds to that,” ventured the South African businessman.
This new stampede of advertisers comes after Musk responded to a user message that said that “Jewish communities have been pushing exactly the kind of dialectical hatred against white people that they claim they want people to stop using against them.” “. The message also alluded to a conspiracy theory that Jews have supported the arrival of non-white populations to Western countries. “You have told the pure truth,” replied the businessman.
