Antisemitism has long festered on the internet, but the Israel-Gaza war and the loosening of content moderation on X have propelled it to unprecedented levels.

      I like how he’s saying he’ll sue Media Matters for supposedly lying about him endorsing the antisemitic Tweet. Because the discovery phase when they show that he did, in fact, endorse the antisemitic Tweet will be glorious.

            I’m hoping they’ll feign interest and attentively listen to his free speech long enough to have plenty of material/ammunition to quote his rhetoric as a frivolous waste of time, and slam his ass in the ruling so he’s too embarrassed to appeal. Just one bag’s worth at least.

            If he does appeal, I still have plenty of popcorn left.
