Imagining a world where Joanne Rowling is legally required to shut the fuck up 
The best part is she absolutely will not be able to help herself, and won't comply. I hope Imane takes all her money.
69th Like. It's coming true!
For posterity, mofos!
hope she wins the legal right to go 10 rounds with both of them at a time and place of her choosing
Folks I'm starting to think she might be based as fuck
you can't call it cyber bullying in France, you have to say harcèlement à la demande
harrassment on demand?
a few years ago, France made it illegal to say "podcast" on television or radio - they didn't like the English loaner word and insisted on "audio à la demande"
Are the French still dedicated to that bit? I remember when they were doing anti-Arab bullshit laws around 2010 where they were """"preserving the language."""" I would have thought they'd wear themselves out when they realize languages don't stop changing just because your stupid fucking HOA of a government says so.

GOOD. Get their asses, take them to the fucking cleaners.
She should sue Rowling under UK law it would be a much stronger case, the law here is extremely strong for defamatory shit.
i hope there's this thing where they have such massive and overpaid teams of lawyers that the sheer number of egos makes them effectively incompetent and unable to coordinate with each other and she takes a shit load of money from them (i guess whatever assets the French state can appropriate?)
They're both too rich to be affected by a lawsuit outside of their ego, but with how SLAPP suit happy Rowling is, this is still funny. Hopefully she has a meltdown on twitter over it.
Her time will be massively wasted by it so that's a good thing one way or another. Even paying a bunch of people to handle it she'll still lose hundreds of hours.
It won't affect them, sure
But the actual point of these laws (in theory) is less about punishing someone for bad behavior and more about compensation or restitution for harm done to the plaintiff. It's just expressed in terms of currency or other compensation.
Basically like "Elon's targeted harassment has reduced the plaintiff's marketability for sponsorships and future post-career coaching opportunities..." stuff like that. And if he's found liable (or guilty, dunno how France words this stuff) he has to compensate for that measurable harm caused over a lifetime.
I'm not trying to be overly annoying, but it is one of those things I think people run away with like "oh time for the courts to punish them!" and because billionaires break the system due to the magnitude of their wealth in comparison to "reasonable" damages awards, it's always going to be disappointing if the expectation is "finally he'll learn to shut up!" Because he won't. Not under the current system. However, if the system works correctly, an innocent person can get something approaching justice on their end in financial terms.
How easy is it to sue people who live in different countries? Is that even possible?
It probably helps that those two have income from France. Elon bc Twitter operates in France and I’m pretty sure Teslas are sold there, Rowling bc Harry Potter shit is sold in France
Isn’t that income through a business they are employed at? Like Musk is CEO of Tesla but Tesla pays him in the US.
Idk about EU/French law but I think in the US you wouldn’t be able to get to it, same way these people are avoiding personal income tax.
I could be totally wrong.
An Algerian filing a complaint (unsure what that means here) in France against a Brit and a Yank, each of whom have companies registered in the EU (I think Tesla and Harry Potter have European subsidiaries) seems like lawyer hell.
The English libel laws are extremely annoying from what I remember so Rowling is likely to have to lawyer up real hard.
Hope Richard Dawkins is included too, I'm even praying for that.
Doesn't he identify as a "cultural christian" or something like that now? Like, he still doesn't believe in God, he just hates brown people culture.
Would she have better odds suing them in the UK though? I thoughtc they had really strict libel laws, idk anything about France though
Their 
being rabid assholes have finally caught up to them.
get your bag queen 💪💪
She's so based wtf
can't believe Imane Khelif will be the new owner of the Harry Potter franchise
Get that Logan Paul dipshit too.
hell yeah
