MINI THREAD: Almost one year after we started this and brands still don’t get it. Even worse, @google @facebook & @taboola don’t get it. 1/
American companies have a responsibility to the country where they do business. Their ad dollars are literally supporting propaganda 2/
racism & sexism. They can no longer hide behind the idea that they don’t know about it. We’ve been telling them for a year. 3/
Media outlets have tremendous power right now, but advertisers and the pipes that deliver their ads have even more. 4/
This is not a free speech issue. Money is being exchanged. @facebook @Google & @taboola make billions every year on ads. 5/
It is time for brands to demand that these companies 1) keep their brand out of terrible juxtapositions & 6/
2) keep them from inadvertently spending as dollars on sites that intend to spread hate and propaganda. 7/
This quote from this article sums it up pretty well. If @google @facebook & @taboola can’t do that, no one should be paying them. 8/
Advertisers are inadvertently hurting our country at the hands of tech companies. It’s high time they make a strong statement about it. 9/
And that was NOT a Mini Thread.

Our bad. Got carried away.
