The 'Arthur' Cartoon's Official TikTok Just Dragged Musk's Advertiser Boycott With Iconic Clip

The long-running PBS cartoon series called out Musk's response to advertisers leaving X, formerly Twitter, with a pitch perfect clip from the show.

Beloved PBS children's cartoon Arthur just roasted Elon Musk with a perfectly repurposed clip, and the internet is collectively cheering.

In a video captioned "To each their own," the cartoon's official TikTok perfectly captured Musk's response to advertisers like Disney, Lionsgate and IBM pulling ads and promotions from X, formerly Twitter, and greatly reducing their activity on the platform following an antisemitic tweet posted by its owner last month.


In the original cartoon, Arthur expresses surprise over seeing friends he thought were occupied elsewhere “solving unsolvable problems.”

But his friends shared that they just decided to stop trying to solve them.

In the clip posted to TikTok, Arthur is labeled as "Advertisers leaving X."

When another friend suggests that "maybe there is something to be learned from all this," the characters labeled "Elon" responded in unison:

"Nah."

To each their own. #Arthur #Twitter #Elon

The roughly 900k viewers of the TikTok were absolutely living for this shade.

Someone Flew A 'Trump Country' Banner Over Bernie And AOC's Packed Rally—And AOC Clapped Back Hard

Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had the perfect response after one of President Donald Trump's supporters flew a banner reading "Folsom Is Trump Country" over a Northern California rally she held with her colleague, Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders.

She brushed off a warning that they were entering “Trump country” as the crowd swelled in deep-red Folsom, a Republican stronghold nestled in Representative Kevin Kiley’s district. Just to drive the point home, a small plane buzzed above the rally, trailing a banner in bold red letters: “Folsom Is Trump Country.”

MAGA Senator Gets An Earful From Angry Constituents During Iowa Town Hall—And It's Pure Fire

Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley was criticized by his "pissed" constituents during a town hall in Fort Madison this week who demanded why he hasn’t taken stronger action to hold President Donald Trump and his administration accountable as tensions escalate with the Supreme Court.

Those in attendance were galvanized by the Trump administration’s refusal to comply with a unanimous Supreme Court order instructing the White House to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Garcia was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador known for its reputation for torture.
