Jackaloftheazuresand They didn't do it because he encouraged followers to hurt anyone. They did it because defamation isn't covered under freedom of speech and for emotional distress/reputational damage. That's what the lawyers said anyways.
If you can sue a man for money for his speech I see no reason you can't give him an ultimatum to make a video where he has to tell his listeners that he was a liar.
That's a good point and I would agree but Alex has stated numerous times he really does believe what he says. His defense lawyer said so and he's said that on public TV multiple times. Now there is something to be said about someone being mentally ill and I have no easy answers.
Because there is such thing as delusional disorder too and that Alex may be a functioning psychotic. I don't have an answer though.
