I think this will all work out fine in the end, the unique thing with twitter is the exact people who lead these boycott campaigns... are all completely obsessed with using twitter. The author of this thread is a prime example. And the ads are placed on the feed not on a piece of content (like the issues youtube was having). Elon should just deploy a "woke bubble" option where your ad is sandwiched between posts from two liberal elites. The audience would still be broad as just as many people follow these people to laugh at them as to support them.

> Elon should just deploy a "woke bubble" option where your ad is sandwiched between posts from two liberal elites. The reality distortion field behind opinions like this is truly bizarre. Trans makeup artists got demonetized on youtube by the same advertising industry. The vast majority of advertisers don't want their ads shown next to anything remotely controversial. They don't want a "woke bubble" they want a "broadly palatable platform." If your feed is mostly QAnon and you like that, advertisers aren't going to "reach" you in a woke bubble. If twitter becomes an unmoderated cesspool, that's the userbase, and it won't attract the "general audience" that advertisers are after. Even if free speech means twitter must host all user-generated content, it still doesn't mean you can force normies to read it.
