At least two brands have said they will suspend advertising on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, after their ads and those of other companies were run on an account promoting fascism.

Companies don’t have ethics, they have profits

Companies don’t have ethics.
Companies aren’t real, they’re just people organized into a collective, and people do have ethics.

You can look into it but it doesn’t mean company supports X
Look at pride month or the bud light thing
