Wonder how many of Disney’s sponsored posts will be ratioed

douglasurner.bsky.social•62 days ago

They are not buying advertisements, they are paying tribute and hoping for an advantage. The only solution is to make sure the consequences outweigh the benefits. Boycott them.

Corporations go where the money is...

145multimedia.neocities.org•61 days ago

There's no money on X though. It's a rapidly declining platform.

malort.bsky.social•61 days ago

It’s not about direct customer money, it’s bending the knee as a plea by corporations to not use the tools of government to negatively affect their financial interests and/or use those tools to enhance their financial interests.

shrikedan.bsky.social•62 days ago

Frankly after a full year and 1/4th of companies like them paying other countries fascist rules for the sake of profits, it's not really a surprise that these companies are coming back for the sake of courting not just the main guy, but his hand men with one being of notable wealth.

This is what bending the knee looks like irl.

More genius business moves from the 9-D chess players that draw salaries 300-400 times the size of the average worker!

mikerossi.bsky.social•62 days ago

Ugh. But this pains me to say - 4D chess.

spfhockeyfan.bsky.social•62 days ago

Fucking gross

haeyunjinvibes.bsky.social•62 days ago

why? They should be coming here to Bluesky, oh wait I forgot, they're billionaires and that we live in an oligarchy, my bad (smh)

pjrod.bsky.social•62 days ago

Ever more important to grow BlueSky and leave X

nullcat63.bsky.social•62 days ago

Its unfortunately in these companies best interest to kowtow to felon and elon.

In other words: The sky is blue, the grass is green, and there is nothing new to be learnt.

ya notice how Melania does not like to hold hands with Trump? Even when they do she keeps her distance from him as much as possible. their relationship is clearly transactional. Mango Mussolini and his Slovenian prostitute trophy wife are the polar opposite of what Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter stood for.

kbgpolitics.bsky.social•62 days ago

And I'm through with all of them. I'll take my money elsewhere and it sure the hell won't be Disneyland. Fuck corporate America.

jill-hamilton.bsky.social•62 days ago

Gross

I found these guys this morning on YouTube. They have quite a few short, digestible documentaries. Many address corporate greed. We are still the 99%, don’t ever forget that.

Corruption at its most two-faced.

Corporate fascists circling the wagons.

jojo-x.bsky.social•62 days ago

Did we not all know this would happen? Corporate America doesn't care about anything/anyone but Corporate America.

mtncatsgirl.bsky.social•62 days ago

Boycott. Every. Single. ONE.

skyetrekker.bsky.social•61 days ago

but who are they?

mtncatsgirl.bsky.social•61 days ago

The companies to boycott are mentioned in the original post I replied to.

incompleteness.bsky.social•61 days ago

Ugly 🪰

rock3tpunch.bsky.social•62 days ago

No surprise there.

ottovondanger.bsky.social•62 days ago

It's a circle Jerk of greed.

kimsb.bsky.social•62 days ago

BOO!

begeisvalkryie.bsky.social•62 days ago

I’m sure this will definitely (not) send people running back to Twitter

nineinchclawz.bsky.social•62 days ago

Right lol. Advertisers returning won't un-fuck the website

nineinchclawz.bsky.social•62 days ago

60% of Xitter is made up of bots 😭

nineinchclawz.bsky.social•62 days ago

.......why

145multimedia.neocities.org•61 days ago

This is paying tribute to the new king of America, President Musk. It's obeisance. They're trying to curry favour with the most powerful man on earth.

muskRat told them to fuck theirselves.
After a year of self fornication, they are back to be tied up and spanked with Traitor Tot's Time magazine by muskRat's kids.

skirri.bsky.social•62 days ago

There's another term for this.

145multimedia.neocities.org•62 days ago

Already turning back to the high seas for content I want from them, not a single red cent more for them.

wolfspirefury.bsky.social•62 days ago

Is there a master list somewhere of companies and products to avoid?
