Nothing says “free speech absolutism” like filing another SLAPP against an organisation whose speech you don’t like.
Maybe twitter should stop platforming nazis then?

Since the article doesn’t define SLAPP despite using it dozens of times
Strategic lawsuits against public participation (also known as SLAPP suits or intimidation lawsuits ), [1] or strategic litigation against public participation, [2] are lawsuits intended to censor, intimidate, and silence critics by burdening them with the cost of a legal defense until they abandon their criticism or opposition. [3]
I would love for this to happen, if only because of the discovery phase of the trial.
See, that’s a two-way street. And while the ADL is open about their processes, extwitter is in for some headaches that will make the ADL report look positive in comparison.
I’m pretty sure that if you files one more frivolous lawsuit, he gets a free sub next time.
Shouldn’t the goal of the mag be to avoid mentioning EM at all and not posting this shit?
Read the sidebar. The point of this community is to counter the Elon stans who worship him and instead post things critical of him (so based in reality).
which made sense, on reddit…
But I don’t see the blind devotion to EM here so it lacks any purpose other than “We had this on reddit, so we have to have it here.”
Why would you expect the purpose of the community to change if it’s description hasn’t changed? What would be the purpose of a community that’s purpose was to post anything as long as musk isn’t mentioned in it? He’s still got plenty of people who want him to buy them a horse and they’ll eventually show up on the fediverse too.
I’ve seen Musk stans on here. There’s nothing stopping them from coming here.
Can you link to one?
Why would they only oppose musk fans here rather than “on the Internet”?
For real though why does this community keep fucking showing up on my feed? I don’t understand how you people say you’re tired of the musk spam and then literally post more??
Dear Jesus if you’re out there helping me block this fucking community
You can just… Block it? It’s really easy?
I’ve blocked it many many times. And yes, from this instance specifically. I’m sure it’s some freak lemmy bug right now but fml it’s so obnoxious to block musk spam only to be spammed woth more musk spam from the no more musk spam people.
Musk fanboy getting annoyed?
No, I’m so fucking tired of seeing bullshit about him. I don’t care about him, he’s not relevant, he’s a fucking attention hungry little boy and I’m tired of rolling my eyes every time I see a post about him. I’ll keep blocking until the sun comes up, it’s fine.
In the meantime why are you people pretending to not want to hear about him and then discussing him even more? It’s confusing to everyone else
Has it though? I saw recently posted some kind of proof (no source available) that ADL once threatened the country of Iceland to destroy its tourism industry by falsely accusing them of antisemitism to the US crowd if they didn’t do something they wanted. Should that be true, then it sets a precedent.
Ahem. I believe you are referring to this request, made by the ADL to the Icelandic Ministry for Foreign Affairs, that the Minister take action to shut down the hosting of a website
mapping and publishing addresses of Jewish individuals and institutions [in Boston] and calling for these individuals and institutions to be “dismantled” and “disrupted”
which had recently migrated to a hosting service based in Iceland. Its anonymous “anti-Zionist” creators state that they
have shown physical addresses, named officers and leaders, and mapped connections. These entities exist in the physical world and can be disrupted in the physical world. We hope people will use our map to help figure out how to push back effectively.
So I’m not really sure what you mean in terms of “precedent”. Telling people that anti-Semitic material being hosted on servers inside a country is being hosted on servers inside a country is not a false accusation of anything.
Cool. Thank you for the sources.
No problem.
