    It’s ridiculous in the first place that this was allowed to be brought to Texas. Twitter is based in California; Media Matters is based in DC. Both organizations have fuck-all to do with the jurisdiction this case was brought before, except of course that Texas are in the chickendick minority of states who haven’t passed anti-SLAPP legislation yet and thus wouldn’t dismiss Musk’s case outright.

    Also, eat used gum off the toilet in a park bathroom, Musk; eating shit isn’t good enough for you.

    Edit: I was fairly mistaken about the anti-SLAPP thing; it’s still stupid, but definitely see below for clarification.

      Texas does have anti-SLAPP laws passed and they are among the strongest in the nation. Unfortunately, the courts have ruled that they cannot be used in federal courts.

    I hope the judge so much as delivered a newspaper at the age of nine let alone worked a day in any business that bought advertising in any media because then we may see the smack down.

    This whole thing is so absurd as someone who was on the media end. The advertiser-media relationship is (was?) wholly one of supplication to the client. It’s absolutely bonkers to see a media entity demand client business and sue. It’s like Opposite Day in Capitalism Land.

    Kinda anti-capitalist actually there Elon.

    It should be like when the Army asks you where you want to be stationed and then sends you to Fort Polk.

        Supreme Court: Do you know how long it’s been since we had an actual judge in here?

        Dredd: Well… you’ve got one now.

        Judge Reinhold…

        …as Detective Billy Rosewood from the Beverly Hills Cop quadrilogy.

    It blows my mind that somehow he thinks that he can just sue people because they don’t want to do business with him. This is purely frivolous and a bullying tactic.
