The Free Speech Absolutism of Elon Musk, Free Speech Absolutist
By
Frivolous lawsuits (or threatened lawsuits) often send a message, and in this case the message is “protesting way too much”:
Elon Musk is so mad about all the advertisers fleeing X, he announced he’s going to sue Media Matters
and in his statement, he appears to confirm the accuracy of their reports in an attempt to downplay it

His admission that the MMFA story is accurate is definitely my favorite part of this.

Also, I’m curious how Elon thinks the process of filing lawsuits works. Does he think you walk into a courtroom and serve the judge or something?
Anyway, expect this list to be quite a bit longer on Monday.
