    CEO of public company actively makes product worse because of business dealings at a seperate private company owned by said CEO. Not that Tesla shareholders don’t already have enough reason to be pissed, but good lord.

    And it’s not a “feud” that would imply Disney is being petty instead of making the fucking obvious business decision to pull advertising spend from the dumpster fire of racism and controversy that is Twitter.

      Maybe it’s just me, but choosing where you advertise has always seemed like bullshit with no real evidence to back it up.

      Do people really believe that Disney will lose customers if they show ads on xvideos? How do you even explain that to your children, who won’t see the ads there in the first place?

      I can see a small media backlash that revives itself every so often, but that’s all. Frozen 3 gets announced and all of a sudden nobody cares.
