Oh brother this guy stinks!
Take your upvote e.e
Wait till they post something about Planters... Waggles eyebrows
If aliens could judge us, they'd say: "So you are telling me, that humans have killed each other for imaginary lines on the ground; in the name of feckless leaders who don't give a fuck about you; and bananas?"
Bananas are at least understandable, we gotta eat
Or hoard if you’re Donkey Kong.
Loo-seeeeeeee!!! You got some splainin' to dooo!
For context, this was back during that stupid time when people could buy Xitter authentication.
I don't think Xitter authentication existed in 1954...
I thought that was still ongoing? When did they revert the change?
I thiiink there are multiple checkmarks now. General bought blue check marks and gold verified? I think...?
Xitter
My apologies, but it’s Twitter for as long as that cock-sucking, ball-gargling, butt-plug-looking, fascist-asshole-of-a-non-tax-paying illegal immigrant piece-of-shit anal-bead-wannabe motherfucker who needs to get the Hell out of our goddamned country is alive and walking free.
I get that you are trying to degrade and demoralize him, but please be aware that many of the insults and words you are using are offensive to various groups of people.. for example, my wife is a cock sucker, are you comparing my wife to this creep?
I choose this guys cock-sucking wife
Other than cock sucking, is your wife anything like Musk? If so, then yes. Otherwise, obviously not.
Twitter.com still brings you to the website, i imagine the trademark is still registered
So it is still correct to call it that
Xitter is pronounced 'shitter' I'm pretty sure
That's how I will always pronounce it.

as opposed to this stupid time when people can do that.
...isn't that still the case? They took it away, changed the color or something, and brought it back, didn't they?
You could buy Xitter authentication in 1954? 🤔
Can't people still buy the blue check?
It's true, too; Chiquita was vital in overthrowing the Guatemalan government.

I was honestly surprised they casually acknowledged it like that
Both tweets are fake.
Parody accounts. Both tweets are in fact real tweets. As we can see.
Actually strike that. I don’t know that. There are ways to alter pictures so I guess it could be fake in that they never were twated out by anyone on the site.
I have not tried it on Twitter, but it's extremely easy to use a browser's console and change any text on a webpage, so I'm not surprised it's fake
A parody account posting something that's perceived as coming from a non-parody account falls under my definition of "fake." What I meant was, Chiquita didn't post either tweet.
Well, that's the internet for you
Fuck Dole and every family that still holds power from the coup.
Chiquita is a bad exploiting brand
At this point you might as well just assume every corporation is shit and be pleasantly surprised when you look them up.
I mean, yeah, but Chiquita/United Fruit are on a whole different level. They're the ones who single-handedly destabilized a whole region, funding multinational death squads, coups and shit. That's the whole joke.

Edit: to be honest, anyone unfamiliar with this period should brush up on it. This was the last time the US truly functioned as an empire (or tried to), and the key arguments are going to be the same now as they were then.

It's been 50 years, Chiquita should treat itself
Plot twist: A whistleblower denounces that Chiquita was the major Trump campaign supporter.
You're off by two decades
It's been 30 years, Chiquita should treat itself.
I miss the week where Twitter essentially allowed free speech for $15 before they shut it down after everyone immediately clowned on every single corporation and celebrity in existence.
