‘Goebbels In Prada’ Resigns

Reputation washing a fascist troll comes to an end for X CEO Linda Yaccarino

“Women are used to whitewash the dirty face of fascism.”—Alex Alvarova

There are incredibly brave women on the frontline of the information war working 24/7 in defense of truth, so when Linda Yaccarino was hired as the CEO of X/Twitter in May of 2023, I took it personally.

While I was reporting on the hard reality of life under technofascism, Yaccarino was making millions reputation washing a fascist troll.

I asked her publicly and repeatedly to resign.

Pretending X wasn’t devolving into a Nazi infested hellscape rife with pro-Kremlin ‘influencers’ on her watch was some trick.

Here she ‘handily’ tries to defend her product:

It was never about free speech. She was an accessory to an influence operation to throw the 2024 election to Trump — influence operations are not journalism and therefore not covered under the First Amendment.

After two years of debasing herself, she resigned today. No reason given, but she issued a statement replete with yoga babble (emphasis added). Maybe Grok going full Nazi was a bridge too far.

Stumping Nazi Grok

Whatever.

I investigated her history, most of which had been completely wiped from the internet. In this thread, it is revealed she worked on Celebrity Apprentice, she was named to a Trump council, and her sister allegedly worked for Deutsche Bank, the largest money laundering front for Russian organized crime.

Whatever.

Some other fresh-faced ghoul will take those millions.

In the meantime, we’ll always have this Desi Lydic masterpiece from the Daily Show:

Congratulations Linda. I hope it was worth it.

Looking forward to the rescue of moral clarity.
