$20 they were pulling ads from Twitter before the acquisition but now they can virtue signal about it.

Woke vagines don't buy Silverados/Sierras. Mary Barra is just terrible for GM.


I wish someone would point out to her/GM that they had zero issue advertising on a platform that pushes porn but they draw the line at free speech.

I thought GM specifically threatened to pull their advertising if President Trump was reinstated?

The only one I'd ever consider would be a Corvette anyway. Japanese > Ford > Audi/Porsche > Tesla for me. The rest - not even considered much at all.

quote:

"We are engaging with Twitter to understand the direction of the platform under their new ownership. As is normal course of business with a significant change in a media platform, we have temporarily paused our paid advertising. Our customer care interactions on Twitter will continue," the company said in an emailed statement.


So they are stating that they were fine with how the platform WAS GOING?

Barra is an imbecile, but she is a Democrat imbecile. So her press minions rate her as "smart."

*key thing to take away, never give up control of your business to corporate greed.

Any public company is highly influenced by idiots on the board that diminish the original product/promise.

It's at the point where I think one could start a BPC, INC and be the next Amazon.

I drove Chevy trucks my entire life.

The last 3 of them I said would be my last GM product.

I finally carried through on that threat.

Never will buy another GM.

Not because of politics though, it’s because they build a piece of shite vehicle

Do not buy from GM. When I met my wife, she had just bought a brand new GM. Damn thing was a POS lemon. Went to arbritration through the BBB. The GM rep lied through his teeth. We had the service records, we had a trend line showing the problems were getting worse over time and then we went out to the car in the parking lot and demonstrated the problem.

She won a full buy back from GM, they came and towed the piece of shite away.

So here's the lesson - any car company can make a bad car, but how you handle the problem shows the character of the company. They told us "frick you" and we won in the end.

That was 1987. Neither my wife or I, or anyone we could substantially influence, have purchased a GM car since. I'd like to encourage all of you to do the same.
