Imagine a species surviving world war 2 and the Holocaust then still being pro-nazi. So fucking stupid.
Eh, I live in the US where people still pine for the fucking confederacy because they love slavery and racism. Of course people are gonna keep the nazi hate machine going.
A bad economy and uncertain future make people very afraid. It’s tempting to stick your head in the sand, blame all your problems on a specific demographic, then trust dear leader will punish the people that made you scared.
It’s completely divorced from reality, but reality sucks right now. People are scared. They’re taking the blue pill to feel better and pretend the horror all around them isn’t happening. They won’t max out their credit cards and become homeless. Dear Leader will fix things before that happens.

Less than 100 years. It’s pathetic. Bring on the nuclear winter.
You’re not getting out of climate change that easily.
Yellowstone supervolcano eruption?
If we’re going to carve it up and sell it off to private interests, might as well.
It’s not like antisemitism prevented people from supporting the NSDAP (in many cases the opposite). Sure, when they were elected they didn’t know what to do with Jews yet, but antisemitism was one of the pillars of their philosophy (if the people are unhappy you have to take responsibility or simply point at someone and say “they are responsible, it’s their fault”) and antisemitism has existed since forever. (Of course there were not only Jews in concentration camps but they were initially made for them).
And sadly antisemitism still exists today in many areas of the world.
Pauses…they’ll probably be back once this blows over.
Yeah, I’ve seen variations of this headline a million times. Tbh while I certainly approve of not giving Elon money, at this point I can only think moves like this as performative actions to get some free good PR.
Weird it says “paused” and not “terminated”. I think there’s something wrong with my glasses, am I seeing it correctly?
Business is business
Nazis have money too!
Yeah, but “My Pillow and meth” money is very different from “new car” money
Well, the Swiss have it now, but the Nazis did loot a bunch of it from the corpses of their victims at one point.

Pause? Not Canceled?
Gee, who ever thought there would be racist content from a site owned by Apartheid Boy? And of course, he probably denies it exists in spite of clear evidence to the contrary. He literally defamed the Anti-Defamation League when they called him out on him jerking it to his Nazi fantasies. Then I think he cried to his mommy, who looks like the Bride of Frankenstein.
Bit late to the party, must be a combination of language barrier and declining effectiveness of ads on a dying platform.
I don’t imagine that the people over at Hyundai Motor America have a hard time with English. This was merely not knowing/caring until it became a problem.
I’m operating under the assumption that the US Headquarters have to listen to the SK Headquarters, but who knows what goes on behind closed doors.
Not saying Hyundai America doesn’t listen to Hyundai Global, but if they have to wait for Global to pull an ad then there are some serious management issues.
I forget x is Twitter and took me a while to figure out that X isn’t a car model of Hyundai
X is a single letter most commonly used as a variable in algebra and other math courses. Also commonly used for loops when writing code.
Hyundai wouldn’t be dumb enough to name one of their cars a single letter. Even back when Toyota had the Scion brand, they named their models the xA and xB, because naming anything a single letter is fucking retarded. Do we not have language in our society still? Must we revert to monke and just make single syllable noises?
I say, companies all around should start rebranding as single letters. Apple will be A. AMD will also be A. Samsung S, Starbucks also S. This would be hilarious to show how dumb Elon is.
X was a window system for Unix-like operating systems long before Elon Musk decided that would be a good name for the social media platform he bought.
I’m sure this is a given reason.
I can’t help think posting ads on a platform owned by the head of a rival car company just as that company is tanking out and desperately flailing around to improve sales might be inadvisable for a whole host of reasons, though.
Oh drag. Less ads about a shitty car brand. darn.
Only if you’re a twitter user. Otherwise, that marketing budget will just be spent elsewhere.
Then again, why any user of this community would browse without an adblocker is beyond me.
Have clearly never owned a Hyundai. My mom had a cheapo Hyundai Accent that she drove until it hit 300k miles. She only upgraded because she got tired of manual transmission, hand crank windows, and no power locks.
One instance, a rule doesn’t make.
