Europe told Elon that the Trump interview better not violate EU laws. Fortunately for Elon the whole thing seems to have failed. https://x.com/lindayaX/status/1823052643733823640 -

I've been trying to think up a rhetorical questioning (I've only gotten to try out on my mom so far) where I ask them to name any explicit thing that he did that helped anything, with the caveat that it had to happen because of him specifically and not from having a Republican administration/Congress in general. Then as an example I concede updating NAFTA, because no one else would've risked cutting ties with Canada to do that. I just want to be able to pin someone down, whether it's that they like what he says, whether they just like anyone with an R next to their name, or whether they just don't actually know how any of it works. -

Elon Musk now owns Twitter, apparently trying to run it into the ground
Raptorpat replied to Jman's topic in Current Events
If they are both doing the same thing - collectively withholding their purchasing power as a means of protest - where is the line drawn that makes it all-american in on instance but evil censorship in the other? Is it the scale of the purchasing power? Is it different when it's business-to-business instead of business-to-consumer? -

If the whole purpose of a boycott is that a group withholds their collective purchasing power as a means of protest, what is the legal distinction between collectively refusing to buy Bud Light/Yuengling and collectively refusing to buy advertising space? Where is the line between a legal boycott and an illegal boycott? -

Please explain how boycotts are censorship rather than protected speech. -
