    As more of these are announced, fewer casual twitter lurkers will visit the site. Then it will become socially unacceptable for remaining brands to stay, and they’ll leave too. Prolific twitter posters will find they no longer have any reach, so they’ll just fade out.

    Seems like the toilet is mid flush.

      They are temporarily against racism. At least until people stop paying attention

    I always considered WaPo fairly left leaning so I’m kind of surprised they were advertising at all on X as of late

          So? A mod could remove an article. If the bot keeps posting articles that break the rules, the bot should be banned till the programmer can correct it to only post tech articles.
