The Securing the Protection of our Enduring and Established Constitutional Heritage (SPEECH) Act is a 2010 federal statutory law in the United States that makes foreign libel judgments unenforceable in U.S. courts, unless either the foreign legislation applied offers at least as much protection as the U.S. First Amendment (concerning free speech), or the defendant would have been found liable even if the case had been heard under U.S. law.

Yeah but you'd have to prove it in court and waste the time and money hence why the threat works in Britain. :ooooooooooooooh:
Denying people the ability to find justice via legal channels seems likely to escalate things into violence.
JK Rowling comes across as the freshman who was told they were brilliant all their lives and took it to heart.
Imagine being told your smart as a kid and not feeling that's one of the core parts of your identity because not knowing a bunch of stuff takes away a large chunk of who you are and without it you're basically just a gamer. Must be nice.
well tbf most overconfident freshmen have at least never gone on a campaign to close down women's shelters, promote infanticide, collaborate with neonazis, engage in stochastic terrorism and raise money and public support for that campaign by having a mid-tier Destiny 2 with antisemitic conspiracy theories published.
It would be the greatest thing ever if Twitter bullied JKR into killing herself.
:ukkk: fucking terf island. and ppl are literally dying from the behavior she peddles. stay safe comrades :cat-trans:
The US first amendment is widely regarded worldwide as extremist. Its protections are only ever claimed by racists as an excuse to spew hate speech. There's a reason private platforms don't follow it, but the US government is handcuffed.
The first amendment also comes up a lot when government spending does an oopsie and gives a bunch of cash to religious stuff, which they're not supposed to do, but still do sometimes. It also allows organizations like the Catholic church and Scientology to operate completely tax free schools and programs that make billions of dollars per year.
Then yeah, you have these absolutists like everyone's favorite pedophile Allen Ginsberg who joined and advocated NAMBLA with a silly grin because it was technically free speech.
Slander has to be false statements and i see no lies in that tweey
Could an American go around calling everybody in power a pedophile? Like even though it's true as a rule of thumb, would it be legal even if you were incorrect?
Me accusing the final senator, Bernie Sanders, of pedophilia :hesitation-2:
you can call them all pedos, but if you make a provably false claim like that they had sex with a particular kid or at a particular time you migth get in trouble.
dumbass Brits haven't even learned about republics yet :data-laughing:
