The Sorkin guy said maybe advertisers don’t want to be associated with it, and he said “let’s see what the courts say“.

So he’s going to sue people for not advertising with him? How can anyone who says this kind of thing claim to believe in free markets, libertarianism or capitalism?

I'm not sure, but he could be referring to the case filed against Media Matters. In any case, you're right, nobody will be forced to come back and yelling the f-word after them will likely not persuade anyone either. I think Musk has principles, but they reliably go down the pipes when he's losing it, which seems to happen regularly.

I mean... they're not principles, then.

I mean, realistically I'm not sure if Musk believes in anything much other than Musk.

Musk said : "let's see what the 'judge' says", meaning the public.

Pretty confusing considering he actually is getting a literal judge involved in this right now.
