Amazing. I went to Kauai, including Poipu, and didn't see a single sea turtle during my weeklong visit.

Successful summit between Biden and Xi (boring, low clicks for the media). Biden conducted a good prime time news conference as well (boring, low clicks for the media).

The communist dictator did a good job in his meeting with Xi. I liked his comments regarding trust but verify and having known Xi as vice presidents.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here, but my initial thought is that if a GOP leaning executive is pulling IBM ads from X/Twitter due to Elon Musk's comments, that shows how much trouble X/Twitter is in.

I don't know why you are celebrating the billionaire class using the Court system to control what stories can and can't be told.
If you care about the 1st amendment you should care that effectively, right now, the rich control what can be said through the courts.

Exactly - this is just elno filing a frivolous lawsuit that will go nowhere, like the vast majority of Trump's lawsuits.

The story, which X has admitted, is that it ran ads on nazi accounts (maybe because elno enjoys seeing ads while be browses twitter?).

Twitter admitted that the pro-nazi post that was seen with an IBM ad was seen by over 8,000 people. This wasn't MMFA's doing, they just shed light on the issue, which Twitter has admitted is a problem and that they need to address.

What makes this hilarious is that Minot pretends he likes elno because of free speech, but this is a pretty perfect example of elno limiting speech he doesn't like.

The reality is that you are more likely to get shut down on twitter for criticizing elno than you are for being a nazi. Is that what conservatives mean when they say they are for free speech?

Meanwhile, as conservatives continue to pearl clutch over businesses not wanting their products to be advertised along side pro-nazi content, Univision refusing Biden campaign ads at the request of El Gordo. And nary a peep from these free speech conservatives. I guess they are too coming up with a defense for Trump calling people who don't vote for him vermin while still pretending that being called deplorables was beyond the pale.

The goal isn't to win in Court. The goal is bankrupt voices you don't like.

Suing for defamation and a coordinated effort to use manipulation and lies to cause financial and personal damage is not disagreeing with free speech.

Elon Musk, like tRump, is probably a human iceberg that sends his lawsuit to the bottom of the ocean shortly after his cross examination starts on the witness stand.

This is not a free speech issue. X isn't pushing back because they don't like the speaker or the content of that speech. This is (alleged) intentional fraud perpetrated to financially harm a party.

Remember when Elno said he welcomed his critics on twitter?



In reality, he's been hostile to critics of his and Tesla and this has been shown time and time again. This goes far beyond the kid who was posting public info about his private planes and has extended to numerous other examples.

Elno likes to talk about free speech generally, but what he really means is that he believes in free speech only insofar as he can use it to protect himself. For example, he will try to use it to be a shield from the consequences of carelessly falling for right wing conspiracy theories and ruining people's lives (see recent example here) but strangely he doesn't think about free speech at all when trying to shut down opposing points of view. Even when he acknowledges that those views he doesn't like are based in fact, as is the case here. His ridiculous frivolous lawsuit concedes that MMFA's position is based on truth, but it's a truth that Elno would prefer not be known.



This entire episode is nothing more than Elno trying to suppress speech that he doesn't like because it makes him look bad and will cost his failing business even more money.

It might work, as long as a country isn't spending 50% of its discretionary budget on the military.

And if another country is dumb enough to provide them their military, and allow decades old trade policies to stay in place (which were used to help rebuild from a world war).

But low birth rates and mass immigration from backwards third-world countries may still doom them.

No Go Zones have long been a staple in Sweden and France, now expanding to Ireland and elsewhere. Five children stabbed in Dublin yesterday. The Netherlands, France, and other countries are voting in conservative leaders who appreciate their cultural and national identity, but they face heavy headwinds.
