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. The issue came less than a week after X CEO Linda Yaccarino publicly affirmed the company’s commitment to brand safety for advertisers.

    FWIW, the Nazi account has now been suspended.

      Yeah, but Twitter is just a nazi safe haven under Musk. Elon Musk and Tesla have no problem associating themselves with nazis.

        Who would imagine Nazis in electric vehicles was the future. Fun fact nazis were early adopters of the vegan lifestyle.

          Well considering BMW and Mercedes were once war manufacturers for the OG Nazis and are now breaking into the EV market…I’d say it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch of the imagination.

      Was it really nazi, or was it “nazi”? What did they post?

      Edit: lol OK

      which has shared content celebrating Hitler and the Nazi Party.
