When Elon Musk bought social network Twitter many liberal users complained.
The billionaire businessman vowed to protect free speech on the platform.
It appears communists/globalists did not want conservatives to have the ability to speak on X without fear of censorship.
Apparently, as a result of what he has done with X, the Left has launched a new campaign to slander Musk.
Numerous companies have decided to pull their ads on the network. Musk has sued over slander and has this to say about these boycotting companies.
From The Post Millennial:
Unbothered by advertisers ditching the platform, Musk said: ‘I hope they stop. Don’t advertise.’
‘You don’t want them to advertise? What do you mean?’ Sorkin asked.
‘No,’ Musk replied. ‘If someone’s going to try and blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go f*ck yourself.’
He repeated it again slowly, ‘Go. F*ck. Yourself.’
Wow. At the New York Times DealBook summit, @elonmusk simply told big advertisers who want to blackmail him to "go f— yourself." Musk addresses Disney CEO @RobertIger: "Hey Bob." X CEO Linda Yaccarino was in the room. pic.twitter.com/33nfotjcNP

Elon Muck called out the companies that are seemingly trying to cripple X with an ad boycott. And whether he is angry or simply being pragmatic, his words have put smiles on many faces of those who occupy the Conservative side of this battle.
This isn’t the first time companies have singled out Twitter/X since Musk took over. It appears liberal-run companies dislike Musk’s commitment to protecting the free speech of users.
But often, hypocritically, these critics have accused Musk of other things, such as allowing anti-Semitism on the platform, though when the Left controlled X, there was little concern for the spread of anti-Semitism.
Musk has made it clear that he opposes anti-Semitism and other content that calls for the eradication of a people/group. This did not stop a campaign that accused the company of allowing such comments. Musk and X have sued the group behind this campaign, claiming they are being deceptive.
His strong words for these companies suggest Musk will not back down, despite a lack of ad revenue. He even appeared to call out Disney CEO Bob Iger during the interview. Disney has been heavily criticized by Americans recently for its left-leaning content.
Several independent websites have pledged to continue supporting X through ads. But it does not appear that Musk is relying on ad revenue to keep X alive. He has pushed out a number of features, including subscriptions, which suggests he wants the network to be free from corporate meddling in time.
God speed to Elon Musk.
