    Those ads don’t even look like they’re useful to anyone, they’re like the “He figured out how to download a car. Doctors hate him!” ads from a decade ago

    just why

      Bots advertising to bots, like Facebook

        But Elon hates bots! That’s why he bought twitter in the first place!

      Three only people who will pay to advertise to neo-nazis.

        The thing is, neo-Nazis are ignorant, so they’re exactly the people to advertise your scam to.

      Maybe it’s a kind of dummy content for the test phase? Pretty sure too many people blocked ads and this is their solution

        No real brand wants to advertise on his platform anymore, so he’s serving dogshit ads like this now, to the first people who pay. It’s not a conspiracy

          Yep, we’re about six months away from Elon Musk personally hawking snake-oil diet supplements and survivalist gear to doomsday preppers a lá Alex Jones. Heck, once Alex Jones’ bankruptcy proceedings are finished, Elon can just buy out his stock, cross out Info and sell them as “ElonWars Supplements.

          Yes but the question is why would anyone pay for ads like that? How is that investment going to make any sense?
