Can I sue Tesla for them not paying me money to advertise on my personal social media?

What a small, insecure man.

I have to give Musk credit for at least one thing, I can wake up in the morning and say to my self "At least I'm not as pathetic as the richest man on Earth" and honestly.... I feel good about that. I mean, my life isn't going great, but when I look at Mush, I can say "At least I'm not that bad"

Let the market decide!

Elon: No not like that, that hurts me!

Somebody already pointed this out, but the action of refusing to advertise on X is, in itself, free speech.

Musk stands for nothing. He is a greedy fuckwit - just like his bitch Trump.

Literally just a shakedown "Give me money via advertising or give me money via lawsuit" and you know that Mush will lean on all his new government buddies to make sure he wins.

Please tag "elon" so that our spam filters can work correctly, thank you!

Fascists: [Shouting in Fascist]

Advertisers: Eeuggh, I don't want to give them any money!

F: You have to give me money!

A: We really don't.

F: Yes you do, because I only want you to give me some money! In fact, I'm asking for less money than other companies!

A: Yes, but it's not a matter of how much, it's a matter of I don't want to give you any money at all.

F: Bleeeh! I'm going to call my lawyer!!!
