Elon Musk wants defamation suit over 'pedo' tweet on cave diver tossedElon Musk wants a defamation lawsuit against him tossed, arguing that when he called one of the divers who rescued boys trapped in a Thai cave a “pedo,” it was meant as an insult and not a statement of fact. The allegation of pedophilia is a serious one, even if supposedly made as an insult. That kind of tar sticks. Musk should own up to it instead of dodging it. lmfao... oh yeah, well you are extremely rich and have powerful friends. Nobody else would be able to lie like this and get it thrown out. Insult or statement... you still made it and ruined this man's reputation. You deserve to lose millions and some demeaning comm service.

Who would have thought that the anti worker, blood diamond hier would be a piece of shit? It's a shocker (no it's not) And his money. I feel that Elon was projecting his own sins onto that rescuer.

Elon Musk Says Pedophile Accusation Against British Man Was Protected SpeechElon Musk sought to dismiss a defamation lawsuit, with his lawyers arguing that no one could have taken seriously his claim that a British cave diver is a pedophile, especially because the statement was made in the “rough and tumble” forum of Twitter. There's some merit to that defense ; ) Yes except he doubled down on his claim that the guy was a pedo elonmusk, if he can prove damages, which I'm guessing he can, I think you're screwed. Maybe not be so 'funny' in the future?
