What's currently happening is that advertisers are pulling their ads from X/Twitter because Elon replied "This is the full truth" to a neonazi posting the Jewish question. I think if this is censorship, it's a form I agree with. What advertiser wants to be associated with nazis?

That's not censorship. That is literally just capitalism. You usually don't want your brand associated with Nazis, as that can be bad for business. Companies don't have morals, but they care about money.
