In reality they'll probably just reorganize and call it something else, but god damn that was fast.

That’s because it was an open and shut case, they also had a massive antitrust lawsuit pending. They’ll find a way to reorganize under some newfangled legal jargon that lets them continue the bully pulpit.

I don't know the legalese around this, but ideally I'd like the lawsuit to continue for past damages.

Sue the member companies individually.

According to article there were several named individually, so sounds like it.

You have to arrest every single person involved in the project and lock them up forever or they just keep doing the same thing. There's simply no way to rehabilitate leftists who do things like this.

Fine 15 trillion dollars in damages. State contempt of court when the damages are not promptly paid. It is now a criminal suit.

The ol' Alex Jones Manuever.

Lawsuit means email discovery.

It's for the best to just close down everything, even if the org handled $1billion of ad money.

If you think this happened just to avoid discovery, you're a bigot. :^)

Does that actually work? Can you just shut down a criminal enterprise, destroy all evidence and start over when you get sued?

A blurb about Rob Rakowitz and an article about the "overt political bias in the leadership of (GARM) that’s being used to control online speech" found by the US House Judiciary Committee.

That's funny. According to Reddit, Elon was just being a whiny baby because advertisers didn't like his "hate platform". Funny what you find out when you're not reading liberal propaganda.

Maybe it's just a unflattering New York Post photo, but Jim Jordan does not look well.

No it hasn't. The same miscreants are going to rebrand as a new non-profit and pop up under a new name. Elon needs to go after individuals and the woke companies funding these goons.

Makes me wonder if these types of activist orgs can actually get sued by their shareholders for participating because 'being part of a boycott org' means the company is losing out on money making, and the backlash could damage the company reputation.

The ESG framework was set up to insulate companies from that kind of liability. An investor who uses ESG as a guideline would have a hard time suing a company who engages in this kind of behavior when they specifically chose to invest in that company because it engages in activism.

Hmm, good point. Maybe the individual companies signing on then? baiting ESG moneys is one thing, but actively turning down business opportunities is another.

Oohhh get fucked GARM. They are planning on fighting the lawsuit further to resist the ruling.
