Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday sued a nonprofit that fights hate speech and disinformation, accusing it of asserting false claims and encouraging advertisers to pause investment on the platform.

The ‘free speech absolutist’ gleefully promoting anti-vaccine misinformation is now suing a hate speech watchdog for “using flawed methodologies to advance incorrect, misleading narratives."

    Sueing anti-hate groups will really bring in the advertisers! Another genius move.

    Hopefully it’ll get thrown out, seems pretty meritless.
