    Can someone explain to me how you can sue over a business choosing to not spend their advertising dollars on a particular service? I mean Elon specifically told his customers to “fuck off” and now he’s suing them?!? I just don’t understand these petulant little man children being so litigious when they get their feefees hurt.

      Instead of someone explaining, you could always read the article linked and see for yourself.

      The object of the lawsuit is to get these deep pocketed corporations to settle for millions. If the companies aren’t able to get the suits dismissed, they will settle. They don’t want to get on the wrong side of the current administration and it’s less costly than a years long legal battle.

    Anyone getting sued by him should just demand a jury trial. No way you’ll get enough Americans to side with musk on anything.

    Hey Elmo, you told the advertisers to “go fuck yourself” in no uncertain terms, even repeating yourself for dramatic effect.

    Hey I’ve got an idea Elmo. Go fuck yourself.

    I suppose after he gets done there he will come after people like me who have blocked every musk related business from my network.

      The irony of using one fascist billionaires platform to organize against another fascist billionaire and his platform, but also the government.

    Are boycotts illegal? In this case I doubt there was an organized attempt, just some companies making individual business decisions. But even if Twitter can prove there was a boycott, is there a law against that?

      Boycotts are absolutely legal, you are completely entitled to decide who you don’t want to do business with. However, illegality is no longer required for the justice system to be weaponized against you, and President Musk just wants to make an example to others who might not want to do business with an actual Nazi.

      The law doesn’t matter. With Musk’s position in the government this will basically end up as extortion: Settle or I’ll make things difficult for you.
