He might knew it but he'll never admit that.Get fucked, Elliot. You will never be a woman.
I don't think it is just that but people have become hyper aware about child grooming, animal torture and child porn networks all over the internet as well as prolific amounts of crime being enabled (or at least being funded) by cryptocurrency.The pendulum has started to swing and nobody gives a fuck anymore. Everyone's got tranny fatigue and couldn't care less about his kvetching. It's all about Isreal vs Palestine right now. So sad Erriot. Can't beat Florida Man. Maybe wait for people in msm to care about trannies again in maybe 5 to 10 years?
Oh wait. He doesn't have that long.
I'm pretty sure some of them donated to the legal fund, if only to defend their livelihood. It also helps that people like Elliot are naturally repulsive people, and normies will quietly support anyone who publicly stands against them.There's now an entire cottage industry of YouTubers who source their material almost solely from here to make videos that get 10s of millions of views which is likely more than proper Netflix documentaries get.
Liz Fong-Jones seems to think that approximately 80-95% of Jews shouldn't be entitled to a stage, and/or should be heckled if they are.

"Shut it down." That was the order given by angry students in response to a pro-Israel speaker. This is UC Berkeley, 2024, and pro-Palestinian students were determined not to let this talk happen. A call to action went out on social media urging students to shut down the event, and nearly 200 students showed up. They attacked the venue, they broke down a door, they broke a window, and they forced the speaker to flee.
00:39
Now I have defended the free speech rights of literally thousands of students and their right to protest. But you do not have the right to shut down someone else's talk and decide for everyone else who they are allowed to hear.
00:54
(Applause)
01:01
That is mob censorship, not freedom of speech. But unfortunately, 2023 and 2024 were the two worst years for mob censorship and shout downs on record.
01:15
Now to be clear, not all speech is protected, nor should it be. There are certain categories of speech acts, like incitement to violence, harassment and true threats that aren't protected. Indeed, if there is such a thing as a free speech absolutist, I have never met one. But I am an opinion absolutist. I believe that all opinions should be protected, and your right to free speech is a human right. But I also believe everyone's opinion is crucial data to have about the world. But then again, I'm the weird law student who went to law school specifically to study freedom of speech and the First Amendment. There was this one dude who actually laughed at me that I would never find a job in this field. Well, joke's on him. I've been doing this now for 25 years at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, FIRE.
02:15
(Applause)
02:19
And that 25 years of experience has allowed me to see both how far students have fallen from understanding freedom of speech, but also how principled and even joyful they used to be in defense of free speech not very long ago.
02:37
I think of West Virginia University about 20 years ago. It was a lefty student group, and they were objecting to a free-speech zone policy. Free speech zones is an Orwellian name for these policies that actually restrict and quarantine free speech to little tiny corners of campus. They thought this was ridiculous, so they protested the zone outside of the zone. And what would happen is sometimes locals would walk by and they'd make fun of the students. They’d heckle them, they’d insult them. Want to know what these students did in response? They cheered their hecklers. They believed -- and I love these students, I absolutely love them for this -- they understood that free speech belongs to everyone or it belongs to no one.
03:25
But unfortunately, today, not just students, I feel like too many people believe in something closer to freedom from speech rather than freedom of speech. But I'm not willing to accept that. I believe that there are four truths that everyone needs to understand that can help get us back to understanding and appreciating free speech. And they are: one, free speech makes us safer. Two, free speech cures violence. Three, free speech protects the powerless. And four, even bad people can have good ideas.
04:06
So let's start. Free speech makes you safer. My mentor is a civil libertarian named Harvey Silverglate, and he spent his career in part defending freedom of speech, both on and off campus. But when the idea started to hit campus, maybe back in the '80s, that bigoted or hurtful or hateful speech had to be banned, he would say, "I'd prefer to know who the Nazis in the room are. So I know who not to turn my back to." Now Harvey was right. It's about knowledge. Simply, you are not safer for knowing less about what people really think.
04:49
(Applause)
04:54
Gosh, you're making me blush.
04:56
(Laughter)
04:59
So I'll give you an example. And I hate to break this to everyone here at TED, but lizard people, who live under the Denver airport, do not, in fact, control the world.
05:13
(Laughter)
05:15
They don't, I'm sorry. But knowing that your future husband thinks they do or your congressman thinks they do or every single one of your neighbors thinks they do is pretty important information to have.
05:30
(Laughter)
05:31
To understand the world, you must know what people really think.
05:36
Truth number two. Free speech cures violence. About half of Americans, by some estimates more, believe that words can be violence. And this is especially true, it's actually much worse on American college campuses. Ann Coulter, conservative, tried to speak at Cornell a couple of years back, and her speech was also shouted down. And students actually literally shouted: "Your words are violence." Now I have experienced real violence. I was once punched out, I was randomly assaulted. I got a concussion, and I couldn't see out of this eye for a month. Worse, one of my friends was stabbed in the chest. And I was there. It was right here. There was blood everywhere, and I was sure he was going to die. That's violence. And we insult the victims of actual violence by equating words with bloody violence.
06:42
(Applause)
06:47
Free speech is not violence. It's the best alternative to violence ever invented.
06:53
Truth number three. Free speech protects the powerless. I fear, and I noticed this about 15 years ago, that people were showing up on my radar, who seemed to have been taught that free speech is a cynical tool of the three Bs: the bully, the bigot and the robber baron. Now this is just bad history. So historically, the robber baron, the wealthy and powerful, have not needed a special protection for free speech because they are wealthy and powerful. And historically, the bully and the bigot, in a democratic society, if they have the votes, they still get to call the shots. You only need a special protection for freedom of speech, like the First Amendment, for people who are either unpopular with power or unpopular with the majority. This is why revolutionary figures like Frederick Douglass, Ida B. Wells, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela all championed freedom of speech. It's why John Lewis, someone I got to meet, actually, because he was in my neighborhood a lot, the great John Lewis, civil rights icon, he would argue, he would often say that without freedom of speech, the civil rights movement would have been a bird without wings. They understood that free speech was not the weapon of the powerful. It is the best check on power ever invented.
08:32
Now, truth number four.
08:34
(Applause)
08:36
Even bad people can have good ideas. So much time is wasted in social media debates -- I can just probably end the sentence there --
08:45
(Laughter)
08:46
But so much time is wasted in social media debates trying to establish that your opponent is a bad person. As if that's the same thing as saying that they're wrong. Hopefully, by now we understand that good people aren't always right, good people aren't always right, and bad people aren't always wrong. I mean, like it or not, people with truly awful beliefs have made massive contributions. Take Wernher von Braun. Rocket scientist, got us to the Moon. Also Nazi. Or take Genghis Khan. Absolutely spectacular for trade routes.
09:29
(Laughter)
09:30
But ... Or take someone like Thomas Malthus, reportedly a kind and thoughtful man. But his ideas on overpopulation actually were used to justify famines and mass sterilization. Or take another Thomas, Thomas More, great intellectual and literal saint who also burned people. To death.
10:00
But morality and accuracy don't always line up. So I want you guys to do a little exercise with me. This is participation time. Participation time. So please, look at your neighbor, look at your neighbor, and repeat this after me. You're really getting into it, I love it.
10:18
(Laughter)
10:20
Repeat after me. Just because I hate your guts doesn’t mean you’re wrong.
10:27
(Laughter)
10:28
Just because I hate your guts doesn’t mean you’re wrong. Yes. Thank you so much.
10:36
(Applause)
10:38
OK, OK. I know nobody hates each other at TED.
10:42
(Laughter)
10:44
But it kind of points out how just labeling someone bad is kind of meaningless. So, like, for that matter, labeling someone, I don't know, like, woke or fascist or libtard or grifter, it doesn't have anything to do with whether or not they are right. The way we figure out truth is a process of checking and rechecking, and it doesn't work if you just talk to people you already agree with.
11:10
(Applause)
11:16
And think about the poster boy for questioning his society's sacred cows and certainties. This is, of course, the great Socrates. He was so good at questioning certainties and sacred cows that he angered his society so much they made him poison himself. To death. Socrates embodied the idea that certainty is the mind killer.
11:46
Young people used to be the great drivers of free speech, and they can be again. But for that to happen, we all must remember that to understand the world, it's crucial to know what people really think. And that is only going to happen in a situation in which people feel like they can be their authentic selves. And for that, we need free speech.
12:15
Thank you.
12:16
(Applause and cheers)
Fuck you you worthless pervert chink. You can have my free speech when you pry my keyboard from my cold, dead hands, which isn't going to happen. Get thee to a shallow grave, freak.The TED talk Elliot was bitching about has been released.
The great thing about free speech is that if you don’t like what someone is saying, you can rebut their argument with the facts. The problem Dong Gone has, apart from the fact that he cut his knob off, is that his side has no facts. That’s why he has to use intimidation tactics to silence his opposition. That, and the pain of his missing knob makes it hard for him to think clearly.A slackjawed control freak having hatred for a talk defrnding both free speech and treating other human beings like human beings with their own agency is just shocking, I tell you.
Oh, Erriot Z'dar doesn't have a problem with free speech. He just has a problem when people he doesn't like have free speech.Fuck you you worthless pervert chink. You can have my free speech when you pry my keyboard from my cold, dead hands, which isn't going to happen. Get thee to a shallow grave, freak.
He doesn't like anyone who refuses to bow to his every whim.He just has a problem when people he doesn't like have free speech.
Let's see what he'll do when the shoe is in the other foot.He doesn't like anyone who refuses to bow to his every whim.
Well, would you look at that. Elliott finally got around to the rich person hobby of boondoggle shell companies. They grow up so fast.

Here's the addresses from the Federal filing.
He probably built a rape dungeon for himself, Awex Leal the lisping faggot, and the snake troon to rape kids in.I doubt then all this money LFJ hope to receive will end to End Networked Harassment. Chances then he might have spend a part like Keffals and/or buy some high-end condo or mansion.
Whilst End Networked Harassment may have reportedly received $0, they still received in-kind support from Google, Slack and Github.Looks like ol' Elliot lost the influence he had. What a difference three years makes!
