Last week, Detroit-based General Motors said it would stop advertising on Twitter, citing the need to “understand the direction of the platform.” GM said in a statement that it is currently “engaging with Twitter to understand the direction of the platform under their new ownership” and “as is the normal course of business with a significant change in a media platform, we have temporarily paused our paid advertising. Our customer care interactions on Twitter will continue.
JUST IN – Volkswagen, founded in 1937 by the German Labour Front under the Nazi Party, tells brands to pause ads on Twitter because of Elon Musk's takeover.
The dems are targeting Musk like they targeted Trump.
Never liked Oreos anyway, but I'll try my best to boycott the others
No worries
We can also stop buying your products.
When big business has far too much power...
They will be back as soon as it makes money
Everybody here is all about free speech until a company expresses theirs by pulling their advertising dollars. Republican hypocrisy at its best
Nobody can afford a new car and general mills only makes sugary unhealthy foods. Wont miss any of these companies.
Don’t need these companies and will certainly boycott them going forward: Coca Cola, Pfizer, Audi, GE, Proctor & Gambill, General Mills, Ford, General Motors, Volkswagen and Mondelez International. Play to the left, lose the right. Stay out of politics.
So, what if we immediately stopped buying a certain brand of car, a certain type of cereal, or a certain kind of potato chips as soon as we heard a rumor, or even suspected that they might, in the future, change their color palate, or shape, or maybe modify their ingredients?
The corporate coalition against the fundamental rights of the American people as they promote the New Liberal World Order.
And the 'real' truth will bury you in a deep black hole.
They’re not worried about content. They’re worried about extortion and boycotts.
Who cares
Their loss.
That's not what they're Worried about they are Worried about the Woke Mob
Leaves 6 spots for good advertisement!
Wabbits
wheres the list
Well, those companies evidently don't value freedom. That makes me sad.
So What? If those companies DONT want MY EYES (AND YOURS) to see their ads then so be it... WE will see the competitions ads AND BUY the competition products... AND THEY LOOSE MARKET SHARE & TURNOVER/PROFIT No skin off my nose to be honest...
I wonder what ethnic group pulled strings for that to happen, let me guess
Boycott these companies for being against free speech.
Or because they compete against Tesla.
Seriously, I read this stuff and wonder who runs these Companies? What kind of Company would allow themselves to become immersed in the opinions of the minority? I boycott them simply for being wimps.
I appreciate knowing which companies to not support anymore.
Ok And the problem is?
Gee...Pfizer? Who'd a thunk it?
Great new companies and people will join Twitter now that Elon Musk is in control!
Big mistake, BIG Mistake. Should NOT pull advertising !
Pfizer doesn't want to be fact checked like the fake president was 😘
Their loss!
They are only hurting themselves. See how far they get without twitter.
Heres the list of General Mills brands
How does that affect them though? So... it's extortion-like withdrawal from the platform? Would they care to share why they care what's on Twitter? Shouldn't they care more about engagement and ROI?
Just goes to prove to us MAGA that we have been treated so poorly before Musk. Liberals could say anything and get away with it before Musk. The left-wing media could say anything before Musk. This shakeup needed to happen!
We are better off. Freedom!!
BREAKING: Elon Musk doesn't give two shits
None of these companies I would never buy from. So, there is no loss there
That is not why they did it.
Well, won't bother him to much when he cut personnel costs by say 50% at the same time.
When these companies come back, and they will, I hope Elon doubles there rates! It's pretty bad when it's more important to make a political statement then protecting your shareholders by selling your products.
Musk should tell them these major companies to stick their advertising where the sun don't shine and never allow the to advertise on the twitter platform again unless they pay out big to do so.
Pfizer? Good riddance!
Ahhh a list of companies not the support.
Always good when the commies identify themselves
NAME THE COMPANIES OPPOSING LIBERTY, FREE SPEACH AND THE CONSTITUTION.
Companies duly noted
It a good think that these are not any of the customers with that I do business with.
Time for Breitbart to up their ad spend to 11 billion a month
Let them pull out. It’s their loss. It’s probably better they’re gone too.
As if Elon cares or needs them. They just don't understand.
Their loss
In nutshell, BlackRock and Vanguard pulling adds because Elon refuses to go Full Woke!
Funding? Why else would they do this? Only thing I can think of is maybe it’s someone/thing funding these companies making them pull out.
Foolish, 'woke' companies. elonmusk You'll find better backing and the woke can go broke.
Good riddance to those WOKE companies
Stay strong Twitter elonmusk
Another bullshit story. They pulled for one reason. FAKE ACCOUNTS. As advertisers they were sold a certain amount of exposure. Now that Musk has exposed the product they want to see what the numbers really are.
For all the companies pulling ads, you have no idea what’s coming at you. Here’s a hint:
These companies all have Twitter accounts. Tweet them that companies should stay out of politics altogether because it is healthier for their bottom line.
There's a couple of new ones for me to boycott! Good thing Twist n' Shout cookies are just as good as Oreos.
Just scanned. I drive Japanese vehicles, try to avoid prescriptions and try to keep refined crap food out of my system. Won’t miss them and don’t need to boycott them. Let them appease their fat, septuple vaxed, Bolt/Jetta driving whiners.
Who cares? now I will not buy their products
Who cares! elonmusk will turn Twitter into the number 1 platform in the world. Companies are crazy not to jump on this wave.
These companies IMHO are saying they are worried about elonmusk making the truth be the best disinfectant. They should be boycotted.
It is time advertisers get back to business and leave progressive agendas out. If they actually had any good marketing professionals, they would realize the silent majority of consumers are not up with the current narrative...so who owns these companies & media? ThinkThink peeps
They’ll be back if they’re honest. If not bye!
Liberal bis companies need to be boycott. Go woke, go broke!! Twitter will thrive and survive without leftist liberal woke corporations and companies like Phizer, Grub Hub, Walmart, Office Depot, Amazon, AT&T, and all the rest.
And others will take their place -
Like the folks that 'left' Spotify, they'll be back.
Obviously these 'major companies' are against free speech and are affiliated politically with the leftwing and the Democrats.
This isn't a terrible thing. Because of this new company's can move in and buy up the ad space for most likely, a much cheaper price. Companies that aren't the giant Walmarts of the world. Companies that are supportive.
I feel there could be a bit of hate due to elonmusk owning Tesla or is it just coincidence that a good deal of these companies are pulling ads? I find this electrifying.
Please list companies to boycott
I'll do my best to avoid their products. It's really easy for a couple of them.
Shame on them. Using Twitter is a fantastic marketing tool that generated sales & growth for those companies. I never understood boycotting. I may not agree with a company but if I truly like their product, why would I punish myself, to punish them.. Cut my nose to spite my face?
And when it came to firing large groups of people, it also made Facebook say, 'hold my beer'
So boycott them
Time for all Americans to boycott those companies
What are they so I can cancel them
They will be the ones losing money.
I would like to see a list of companies that have stopped advertising on Twitter due to the Musk purchase. I will no longer purchase products or services from those anti-free speech companies.
So these companies are against free sprach ?
Bring back the My Pillow guy!
Terrible idea! Twitter could have a personality again.
That’s not why they pulled out, but you know that.
I’d love to know who they are so I can withdraw my support for them.
Good, ad's suck anyways.
Those major companies you talk about will probably go bankrupt because of their woke agenda
Many more will now seek advertising at Twitter knowing it’s being sanitized from being a liberal political filter.
Goodbye!
elonmusk can we get a list so we can boycot the companies against free speech?
How does that go... Go WOKE go BROKE? I mean who is really suffering loses here?
Time to boycott these 6 companies for the next 5 years
I am not a customer or prospective customer for most of the corporations on this list. However, I will gladly give up Oreo and CocaCola to support Twitter. There are plenty of high quality alternatives available in the market.
Companies suspending ads on Twitter are 'worried about how Musk will impact content moderation policies.' That's their public relations release, the real reason is they are afraid of backlash from the woke radical Left.
At least three car manufacturers are concerned about content moderation policies,yeah right, I'm guessing pressure from a certain ethnic group
That truth seems to hit hard the left
In the long run those corporations will feel the bite and become regretful.
We don't care! Won't support any of these sissy companies!!!!
Pulling ads, not a problem. Companies that don't like some freedom, have no place on Tweeter.
Let them all leave. Business need to stick to better customer services and product quality. Stop supporting Communist china and countries that hate us. Make America Great Again and stop out sourcing America jobs. Make it in America by its Greatest resource. Its own people.
They pulled their advertising because no one is buying their crap anymore
They will be back
He doesn’t need companies that have to lie and don’t want anyone to ask questions.
Cool! Thanks for the list of companies I can do without! General Mills, Audi, GM, and mendelez?
They are no one that I buy from. My friends and relatives don't buy from them either. If I can come up with 8 dollars to keep them off Twitter, I will just have to pay it.
Maybe those companies were just the ones controlling the content.
Boycott every one of those companies
6 more companies to learn, 'Go Woke, Go Broke' - they constantly forget most of the rabid left don't have jobs & live in mummy's basement.
Great news. The more liberal backed companies that go the better.
Don't let the door hit you in your ass, good riddance
Hard to believe which companies, should just boycott them
See Ya
perhaps if these major companies spent less time pandering to so called activists and concentrated on just making sure their own companies just worked properly and served its customers to the best standard
The are all woke companies that I will look for their competitors and give them my business.
I would like to find out the names of these companies that, by their logic, would support me getting ticketed for speeding purely out of concern for how I might drive in the future.
I think he’ll be just fine.
Looks like these companies want to be views as progressive companies rather than neutral providers of goods and services. I have a feeling this will backfire on them.
Small businesses is what ad revenue should look to.
Corporations afraid of free speech are corporations no one should want to do business with.
They're telling us who we shouldn't patronize any longer
Who needs 'em? Go woke, go broke.
So, with zero changes they've already shown their cards to be unreasonable.
what comes around goes around...
Marketing is everything... I've lived and was surrounded around the greatest marketers in America. Things are completely in Elon Musk favor to soar with Twitter!
Woke go broke
List the companies I longer buy from
All the companies and celebrities leaving...
Bye Felicia.... -Elon musk probably
No Worries! There will be others that will gladly take their place.
Pretty sad, when the whole affair from Musk's perspective is about Free & Equal Speech. The 6 Major Companies must have something to hide in such a worried state. We are supposed to be a Free World, so why do the Left treat the Right differently? Such hatred, no neutral grounds.
Elon, please put that list out there so the people know who the traitors of this country are!
Why would they withdraw? Are they using this as a false move against freedom of speech?
It's their loss. Give Elon Musk a chance. He's going to make Twitter better. Give him time.
I hope their sales plummet
In reality they are afraid of backlash from the left for staying on the platform. The left only likes free speech when the content of the speech suits their motives and agenda. If a company gives in to the left and the woke mob, the giving will ever end.
Draining the swamp
Can’t they wait and see? Give it a chance.
can’t afford buying a VW or Audi anyways
If Twitter ads are useful, the companies already lose out. If they're worthless, then it makes sense they cut costs even if they tack on a BS reason for it.
Way to lose billions, Eloon. You're a fking genius.
Well when they realize here in a month or so that they made a big mistake I wouldn’t allow them back on the site.
I have found that when searching for the truth, it is always good to follow the money.
These companies are outing themselves as being part of the elite deep state. It is interesting to watch all of this unfold.
LET THEM F-ing GO!!! You will get 6 Conservative companies to take their place. They all gonna come running back at some point just remember their names. id blacklist all of them
Disgraceful
Show us that list!!
I am glad. He would not stand being under their thumb anyway.
In the meantime, six major companies show us their true colors. They don't want us to have free speech. We can take our money else where.
Me. Musk Don't let them back on.
Does advertising on social media work?
Corporate fascism. We will not spend AD money unless you block conservatives! Now, I know which companies to boycott.
Screw them!
These companies need to be boycotted because they had no problem when Conservatives were banned on Twitter. They are in favor of anti-American censorship.
One that Left GM..easy..they are in competition with TESLA for EVs.
6 companys? More like 15+
Twitter will be a better place to advertise. More real users w/out the bots and liberal blocking of people.
We need names so we can reverse boycott!
There are plenty of other companies that will be happy to take their place. Musk could lower prices, but get more advertisers instead of depending on companies that support communism! Musk is a billionaire for a reason and he will figure it out!
Make them known we will not buy any of their products
Tell us who they are so we can boycott them
Make Twitter bigger and more relevant for the masses and they will return quickly. It’s about dollar’s and cents for these companies. Someone just has to show them they don’t have to bend the knee to woke. The profit will still be there and they will stop all this crap
Dadburn - no more Cheerios, Oreos or new cars for me!! And pfizer jabs have NEVER been on my wish list. 😜
Elon already re-tweeted conspiracies...that is not a good start for our democracy experiment...
We need a list
Hyundai CocaCola and the rest will not ever get my business again! Ever. What a load of crap! Stop being political.
Disclose the companies and also disclose the activists who are threatening the advertisers to do this. Then many millions of dollar lawsuits must happen to stop the extortion.
If Twitter becomes just a right-wing echo chamber the platform will have no advertisers.
If these companies don't get the answers they're looking for and immediately renew their advertising, it's up to all Conservatives, and fair like minded folk to punish them by not supporting their products
It is just that Corporates(including Governments) like People to be in perpetual present; not be Judgmental; nor forecast .
looks like a bunch of car companies who were jealous of Tesla’s success
I have never used Twitter until Elon took over and fired everyone. I felt it was the time to join.
They didn't seem to be worried about it before
Just stop buying products from these companies.
In other words ELON Isn't censoring people therefore we can't play this game anymore
They're running scared, they know the truth can't be suppressed!! Thank you Elon Musk!!!
These 'woke' companies can sick it. We don't need them.
Who are these companies? I'd like to know the names of these corporations who oppose free speech & endorse censorship.
Great opportunity for smaller companies.
Time to boycott Unilever, Hyundai, Domino’s Pizza, and Coca Cola, General Mills!
So major corporations are against free speech ? Maybe we should be against them !
Boycott those companies!
😂😂😂😂 democrats cheering on companies like Pfizer who used slave labor from concentration camps and Porsche and Volkswagen who literally wouldn't exist without Hitler 😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡
post the names of those companies,let the american people play in the game too
Let us know who they are, so we can moderate THEIR revenue!
Strange you would think a company like Pfizer would feel compelled to keep sharing health and safety information during a pandemic DESPITE a platforms ownership. Unless they are now afraid that Musk might change the parameters around what misinformation really is.
6 companies I will never buy from again!
What are the companies because I will never buy anything from them companies ever!! ?
Making a mental list of these companies
Appropriate how the biggest troll on Twitter now owns Twitter lol
I'm sure Twitter will survive.
Curious who they are backing in the election
They will be back soon
