I think about this tweet a lot.
My favorite tweet from that first day of all hell breaking loose when you could buy the check mark was that Tesla account that said a second Tesla has hit the world trade center
Edit- oh and how can we forget the tweet about free insulin that did massive damage to that company’s stocks
It was hilarious seeing companies scrambling to do damage control and showing their full ass in the process!
The irony of posting links to Reddit while talking about Twitter on Lemmy.
I went on a walking tour in Bogota years back and the tour guide made sure to let us know never to eat Chiquita bananas because of this

Thats almost 100 years ago, no one responsible for that is working for that company anymore. I’m usually supportive of boycotting companies, but that seems pointlessly petty
The company that is willing to commit terrible crimes including murder is still the same company. They have not been adequately punished for their various crimes against humanity. The punishment for these crimes should have been large enough that the company wouldn’t exist today, not just a small fine.
resulting in the deaths of 47 to 2000 people
Kinda wide margin there
