Just a pause. Wait a week for it to blow over then funnel money to him again

[–] MaxHedrome@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Apple to pause business operations at Apple because Apple backs slave labor.

[–] BelatedGreeting@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We’re expecting capitalists to be moral now? Their job is to make good products not to be good people.

[–] midlyinfuriated_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yet Apple continues to profit from movies, music, books and podcasts riddled with racial slurs.

[–] dasherchan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can’t wait to see X go bankrupt.

[–] East_Onion@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

ZZZZ Change the channel Marge...

[–] Parking_Apricot666@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Oof. Good though.

[–] mystarkfuture@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So Apple is anti-Palestine? Got it.

[–] dasherchan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can’t wait to see X go bankrupt.

Calling for ceasefire and an end to killing children and civilians is antisemitic, ok. Then, antisemitism it is.

[–] looktowindward@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He didn't do that.

[–] Tim-in-CA@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Will MyPillow be the last advertiser to stand?

[–] AppropriateSpell5405@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Apple doesn't even need to advertise. At all.

[–] pickled__beet@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Took them long enough.

[–] malko2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

"pause", not "stop"? Do they think X will suddenly become anything else than a Nazi hellhole?

[–] overactive-bladder@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

just kill that freaking X garbage fire and put it out of its misery.

[–] shodan5000@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (4 children)

So Reddit is pro-Palestine but anti-Musk because of antisemitism? Lol, classic Reddit.

[–] ifilipis@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

^ That. I thought antisemitism is kinda trending here

[–] TheSilverBug@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

When being against genocides is now called antisemitic
It’s like what happened 80 years ago was ok if it was Palestinians instead of you know who

[–] theJamesKPolk@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Don’t forget that Reddit is fine with Apple operating in places like Dubai where checks notes its illegal to be gay. Glad to see that a tweet is over the line for Apple.

[–] Notyourfathersgeek@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This pleases me

Exposing the Israeli Genocide is a crime now

[–] Boggie135@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That's what we call antisemitism ?

[–] looktowindward@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

His tweets weren't about Israel. At all.

Mask off, eh?

[–] domyates@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Musk is the worst thing to happen to the internet, and Twitter.

His free speech mandate, is allowing hate speech to proliferate.

[–] atuarre@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Don't forget about all the CP and threats of murder

[–] Thumper-Comet@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

At this point, Apple should just buy Twitter at a bargain basement price and restore it to what its previous state (flawed as it was).

[–] Onceforlife@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Just “pausing” eh 🥴

[–] koriroo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s strange how one guy just ruined a whole platform for millions of people…but I guess that happens all the time, look at tumblr lol. I used to love going to teavana, then Starbucks bought it and closed all the locations. Nothing last forever I guess, I always think google will be there though lol.

[–] username____here@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yet they are still on Facebook and Instagram. The US government lost control of Twitter and are looking for ways to silence the platform.

[–] Boggie135@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] seitz38@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They said this a year ago and then when the iPhone cycle picked back up it was constant Apple ads. I don’t believe them.

[–] DokeyOakey@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Apple shouldn’t have been on there after they started their downfall.

[–] wilonwheels@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Elon's angling for that Saudi money to save Twitter.

[–] atuarre@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They already gave him money

[–] ShrimpRampage@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You gotta say the whole thing. “X formerly known as Twitter”. Like tribe called quest, Tom.

[–] sociablezealot@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How long for their outrage this time? One week?

[–] shivaswrath@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Pause is weak.

[–] SolidSignificance7@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I just subscribed to Premium+ to support X and I will stop buying Apple products until they resume advertising.

[–] Fladap28@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Apple should remove it from the app store but they won't do that

[–] WanderThinker@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Pause. Not cancel. Just pause.

This is just for show.

[–] SteelSimulacra@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can someone link Musk's post, or whatever he's getting in trouble for.

[–] 3dio@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

[–] Top-Strawberry1553@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is Elon Musk an Anti semite?

[–] hxgni@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good. Please stay away from that toxic platform forever.
