In the US, speech is only free as long as you do not challenge or upset power.
Destroying the lives of journalists and researchers with frivolous lawsuits is long best practise.
Self-censorship abounds as consequence.
Perfect system for billionaires, and now authoritarian politicians.

Stephen Miller’s America First Legal sued me personally, & Stanford Internet Observatory, bc it didn’t like our 1A protected research. Case has been going for ~2 yrs: $$$. Forum-shopped plaintiffs & judges are prevalent in lawfare like this. Stanford chose to shut down SIO after sustained attacks.

Listening to Biden and Harris speak about the horrors in LA makes me despair all over again that Americans inexplicably decided to vote for that sociopath to lead this country. We KNEW what he was like in crisis. The death toll was overwhelming. And he's just shown it again. wtf.

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.
