Let the flaming begin.

What do: Twitter (downgraded to X), SpaceX and Tesla have in common?
They're all run by someone that quite a lot of people hate.
Yesterday a post from someone who I think should probably mind their words a good bit, said that since Apple now re-advertises on twitter, they are quote unquote, 'A Nazi company.'

Now I don't know about you, but after a while, words like 'Woke' and 'Nazi' and 'Snowflake' and 'Gammon' all start to become background noise and cease to mean anything really, diluting their actual meaning at all.

There will be people working at all these companies, Blacks, Whites, Asians, Jews that are simply trying to make ends meet.
Are they all, due to their jobs now also Nazis, because they are run by someone who has in recent times been acting as a Nazi?

It seems to me that someone can behave very badly without tarnishing those that work in his companies with the same brush. Am I wrong?
Perhaps it's time to start having a care how we label people.

You know what? I'm going a step further because I really want to hammer this point home. You're going to say to yourself 'Oh come on now, don't be stupid. This is utterly preposterous' which is the correct response to what I'm about to suggest.

Scenario:

You were in a school with a naughty teacher. Yes, that kind. The kind that gets sacked as soon as what they did, comes to light.
They get put on a certain register for their utterly disgusting behaviour. This is the right thing, are we agreed?

You however, having been taught by that teacher are now also a kiddy-fiddler by-proxy, because someone in a position higher than you did this nasty thing.
Isn't this just one of the most utterly stupid, incompetent things you've ever read? I hope so. It should be, because that is precisely my point.

@FreakyFwoof The students had no choice. The law says you have to go to school. The law doesn’t say you must advertise on x. Not yet anyway. Give trump a week or two.
