    Some people call me Doctor,

    Oh really? I can almost always tell because it’s obvious in breath, depth and consideration shown in of the replies.

    The “issue” that some people pretend to have is that they don’t think ads should be shown near content they deem hateful.

    I sincerely can’t believe that someone who claims to be on par with a doctor doesn’t even entertain the possibility that the content of an ad could be problematic on a sociological level. And that’s on top of misconstruing the point I was making.

    You mean the advertisers of big corporations who care about their brand image don’t like that, right doctor?

      Do you think that that article you linked is saying that the content of the ads are “hateful” or “problematic”? That’s not what it’s talking about. It’s talking about showing normal ads near “hateful” content.

      You mean the advertisers of big corporations who care about their brand image don’t like that, right doctor?

      They only care when a bunch of idiots pretend that having an ad in the vicinity of something they don’t like means that the brand supports the thing they don’t like. They don’t actually care, they just pretended to so they could essentially blackmail companies into pulling advertising dollars from Twitter so they could try and harm twitter.

      Did you not realise that? Did you really think that it was just a coincidence that all of a sudden it became some giant issue just as elon musk bought Twitter?

      Oh really? I can almost always tell because it’s obvious in breath, depth and consideration shown in of the replies. … right doctor?

      Love it - when you try to make fun of me when you think I’m “uneducated” and it falls flat on its face because I’m more educated than you, you then try to make fun of me for being more educated than you lol. Amazing.

      You also didn’t answer my question, while I answered yours. That’s not very nice. What is your highest level of education and, if it was higher than high school, what was the area/qualification?

        Studies indicate a link between the ad and its emotionally charged context to viewers. [1] [2] I know that Musk claimed that several times, almost verbatim as you said it, but it’s not exactly true. And I also know because I’ve had that visceral reaction to an ad being ‘misplaced’. I don’t think it’s an empty claim at all, and the company has every right to decide where to show their ads and why.

        Did you not realise that? Did you really think that it was just a coincidence that all of a sudden it became some giant issue just as elon musk bought Twitter?

        Like how Elon made it a huge deal himself by publicly telling companies to ‘go fuck yourself’ if they didn’t like it his way?

        you then try to make fun of me for being more educated than you lol. Amazing

        Nope, this is not a pissing contest. This is a can-you-piss test because I think your takes don’t reflect your level of education. I can count at least two that I find quite baffling, so I had to ask.

          Studies can be - and often are - made to show anything. Having family members who work in the research industry I know for a fact, because they would often get approached to do a study to get a particular result. If they refuse, someone who needs the money will gladly do it. It’s the same way that any lawyer can find an “expert” to support their desired position in court.

          Like how Elon made it a huge deal himself by publicly telling companies to ‘go fuck yourself’ if they didn’t like it his way?

          My point was that no one cared about where their ads showed on Twitter until Elon bought it, and then all of a sudden it was this major issue. It was performative and it was being used to try to blackmail them, that’s why he said what he said.

          Nope, this is not a pissing contest.

          It was when you thought you could piss higher and further than me ;). Funny that. I find your takes baffling, so I’m asking - what is your level of education?

            If you think there’s fraud, then show it. You seem to know your way around.

            My point was that no one cared about where their ads showed on Twitter until Elon bought it, and then all of a sudden it was this major issue. It was performative and it was being used to try to blackmail them, that’s why he said what he said.

            Elon immediately fired the content moderating team. The racist hash tags showed up and then Elmo defended them and told advertisers to go fuck themselves if they disagreed. Why are you dead-set about blaming the media? Lol

            It was when you thought you could piss higher

            Bruh. Lol I made my point, and I still don’t hear anything reasonable from you to correct that. You sure it’s on me to talk that big and walk so small? What was that you said about cisgender again?

                I’m quite aware of how research is conducted. I also see little reason why such a paper would be forged for a few reasons, but since you dared to make the claim, you also get to pay the burden. And hand-waving is not it.

                  I literally just showed you why studies shouldn’t just be trusted, and you come back with this?

                  It’s becoming quite evident why you won’t answer about your education level.

                    Yes, but it’s unexpected of you, doctor, to not even click on the abstracts. Nor did you realize that your piece’s main topic was research that conflicted with a company’s source of revenue. In what way does this finding inconvenience a company’s bottom line? It’s preliminary research into an area of low interest.

                    Tell me, doctor of what, exactly?

                I mean, your reasonable takes when, mr doctor? I love how you latched onto the pissing bit instead of matching your statements and priorities to your claimed level of education. If you claim to walk, then walk. You claim to run, so let’s see it.

                Oh, and I still need evidence of fraud for the studies (not to be confused with how long you claim your dick to be, in case you get fixated on another stupid pissing contest to conveniently divert from the topic).
