      Uh, no, in both cases either something actually happened or it didn't, both things are statements about the real world All court judgments, ideally, should be statements about the real world and things that actually happened, it doesn't matter whether it's civil or criminal

      "Ideally", of course, being the key term As someone who rejects fluffy idealism I'm sure you're just fine with the idea that the lower burden of proof in civil trials means Ms. Rowling should be able to extract apologies from anyone who pisses her off because judges like her

      I mean yeah in one sense talking shit about JKR as this act of rebellion is pointless because I live in the US and I'm covered by the First Amendment and the 2010 SPEECH Act so it proves nothing legally that she doesn't try to sue me

      But as an idealist to some degree it offends the fuck out of me that her shitty fans get to point to her critics' coerced abjection and apologies as *evidence she was actually morally in the right* It's viscerally offensive as fuck to watch them say that

      So, yes, watching them impotently sputter "Sue this man! Sue that lady! Sue everyone!" and it just not happening when people call her out on Twitter matters In a very small way, it matters It's the principle of the thing

      The thing I find particular funny about MissFluffy is that she clearly doesn't believe in anything. Look how many times the story has changed, and how many arguments she's had to eject from because even she knows that everything she says is BS. Yet, she just keeps trying anyway.

      Such as? I mean we have a basic disagreement about whether it is possible to identify ‘defamatory statements’, rather than suggest a court may find a statement defamatory. But that’s about it.

      JKR, a transphobic bigot, immorally filed SLAPP lawsuits against people who did not defame her. You've bailed from every single angle you've tried to argue against that statement.

      I’ve been pretty clear that I don’t think she’s a transphobic bigot. I’ve seen no evidence to suggest she’s particularly litigious. If she never sued the argument would be ‘well, there’s no smoke without fire’. I think most people, if they are honest, know that.

      There's no smoke without fire either way Intimidating people into backing down via SLAPP is not proof of anything and it's disgustingly obvious motivated reasoning to act like it is

      This is all happening in public, we can all see the tweets and the essays If you don't want people to think you're a TERF and a bigot the only way to actually change that is to stop saying the things they judge as TERFy and bigoted

          The same applies to ‘if you don’t want people to think your a misogynist with zero concern for women’s rights or their right to define their own boundaries’. Yet here we are.

          Oh, no, I know what TERFs think of me, I accept it, and you can see I have not tried to silence any of them with legal threats I'm doing what all the free speech advocates claim to support -- responding with more speech

          The idea that this is what defamation law is for -- fighting "incorrect interpretations" of YOUR WORDS, like me pointing to something I think is transphobic and saying "That's transphobic" is manipulative deception -- is deeply fucked The UK is fucked

          So, if a bunch of us decide that you are a misogynist and hate women, you wouldn’t argue about it, you would just accept it and change?

          Yep, it’s pretty easy, if you do not want to be considered a transphobe, do not say transphobic things. Saying transphobic things, then trying to censor people, whilst crying about free speech is kind of... odd.

          Whether someone is a TERF is a matter of personal opinion. Why discuss it? It's like trying to discuss that Expressionist art is objectively good, a futile endeavor.
