I went almost 3 years without listening to Shapiro, and I'm disappointed instead of angry. Can any lawyers clear up what made the contract non-binding?
There's an term, article, or comment I didn't save that precisely explained how powerful enemies can benefit off fighting each other (probably in the context of the Ukraine context or unusual American politicians), with the point of conflict of interest causing a feedback loop. In this case Daily Wire vs big tech, where DW justifies its business model by opposing the left side of the establishment, while between the lines being much alike to the establishment. Similar to but not kayfabe in that the enmity is genuine, and related to prospiracy.
The penalties potentially make it unenforceable even if they don't call them penalties they're clearly penalties. Contracts with penalties are void as a matter of law.
There might have been non-binding parts of the contract, and you might be right about penalties being de-facto voidable, but I don't think Shapiro had the latter part in mind when shaming crowder.
