Within hours, #BoycottABC was trending across Twitter/X like wildfire, igniting furious debates about media bias, free speech, and whether or not Musk should start his own TV network on Mars (a suggestion that gained more support than it probably should have).

Some claimed they were “purging” their apps to make sure no corporate wokeness survived the Musk-fueled purge.
