being reviewed and assessed by the very same man that was financially harmed by the ads boycott; Musk

Perhaps a better strategy would be to remind Musk how much IBM helped Hi---r during WWII .. then the contract moneys will start pouring in, lessening the need for layoffs.

IBM succumbed to pressure from woke employees and investors few years back and pulled ads out of X, after MediaMatters brute-forced engineered conditions where IBM ads showed next to Na-i ads.

Th now defunct org refreshed browser 1000s of times, followed supremasist accounts, and did everything to get the X algorithms to show ads from a set of companies, only to grab the speaker phone and say, “Hey companies, X is showing your ads next to Na-i contents!”.

This experiment was unethical, engineered and nothing organic about it. However, the pressure was hard and IBM succumbed.

IBM contracts are now under the loop, being reviewed and assessed by the very same man that was financially harmed by the ads boycott; Musk.

This is FAFO.

Maybe AK needs to come to the Oven Office to let Cheeto and the MElon grill him into submission, then be "compensated" for it with contracts (or we-pons to push back against an invading army)

sounds like IBM didn't bribe the current administration
you have to learn to bribe both sides like Jamie Dimon
