104 2019-09-25 by TheBatarang

User frenchfriedclide is an angry boy. He's filed a lawsuit in New York against reddit, the moderator who wronged him, and spez. As I gather links, I'll be posting them here.

Here's the first link, to the lawsuit.

And a post from a year ago, complaining about the moderator on /r/reportthebadmoderator.

As an abusive internet jannie who is a lawyer IRL: fucking lol.

1 sup3r_hero 2019-09-25

A mod and not a NEET irl? What has drama become? 😦

1 ComedicSans 2019-09-25

This case is peak mayo fragility wrapped up in cheap burger wrapping.

The only appropriate remedy is that everyone involved should be set on fire.

Maybe they'll make it on the cover of the next Rage Against the Machine album

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

I thought you'd appreciate this one. Hey, how many made up words are there in that lawsuit? I thought maybe it was lawyer shit but I'm ready starting to suspect that someone was making shit up.

1 ComedicSans 2019-09-25

It reads like something put together by a very cheap lawyer.

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

I completely assumed that he paid his friend who flunked out of law school to write it up for him like 20 bucks and the dude was like, "Well, that's better than a days worth of tips at Starbucks." and did it.

2 ComedicSans 2019-09-25

Pretty much. It's got all the right elements in all the right places, but it's poorly written and poorly reasoned.

1 BussyShillBot 2019-09-25

THE JANNIE MUTILATOR FRENCHFRIEDCLIDE

1 CucksLoveTrump 2019-09-25

This is it for spez. Surely this is the end

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

Finally! For too long spez has been allowing people to become beyond annoyed and harassed online!

On the other hand, the guy lost weight and if he's anything like most redditors he should probably pay spez for the fantastic weight lost plan.

1 zergling_Lester 2019-09-25

The walls are closing in.

1 trexmundi 2019-09-25

We are also requesting IMMEDIATE Motion to Compel a Retraction and/or apology on Reddit as well as NJ.com by Reddit and DiggDejected for permitting this garbage outside of Reddit's own rules for almost one full year.

First, I'm pretty sure the government can't compel speech. Like, full stop. It can be a condition of settlement, sure, but the court can't order you to issue a statement like that.

Second. they didn't even higher lolyers. This is 17 pages retarded psuedo-legal spergout with boomer levels of entitlement.

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

There were a TON of words I thought were made up but I'm not a lawyer.

1 MiltonFriedmanisbae1 2019-09-25

I stopped reading after they said full stop because in my experience people who use that term are retarded.

1 Redactor0 2019-09-25

Yeah, if you're not the captain of a ship, don't ever say that.

1 SandorClegane_AMA 2019-09-25

Is this nut representing themselves or did they pay some Saul Goodman? I can't see where the law company name is.

1 trexmundi 2019-09-25

I can locate no lawyer name, or letterhead, and it's signed by the doofuses in question. So I presume they're representing themselves. Also in forma pauperis.

1 SandorClegane_AMA 2019-09-25

Pretty good big word bluffing like they are an expert IMHO.

1 trexmundi 2019-09-25

They've clearly done some googling. The RICO stuff is complete nonsense. Publishing even outright defamation isn't a RICO offense as far as I can understand. This law does come up pretty often in conspiracy and gangstalking communities as some sort of magic superlaw (it allows a private cause of action) that if they could just harness would allow their delusions to be publically vindicated in court, and their enemies horribly punished.

Section 230 of the CDA is actually relevant, though the arguement that Reddit is not protected by it is bunk (literally because they do it for free).

1 SandorClegane_AMA 2019-09-25

Is it true that in terms of legal gamesmanship, you make as many arguments as you can (within some limits I guess) and the ones that are rejected don't undermine your whole case unless they are all rejected?

1 trexmundi 2019-09-25

I think so, but this is a bit outside my expertisce. In terms of initial filings, yes. You could allege that someone did three particular things, and the judge could kick one of those things, and the case could proceed for only the other two. You file for everything you think you can get, even if it's a reach, because you can't add it later. There are definitely limits though, rank bullshit is not a good idea, neither is frivolity, or pissing off a judge.

This came up in the KickVic/animejellybeangate which I've been following off and on. In that case they alleged defamation and tortious interference (they fucked with people he was doing business with to get them to stop doing business). Truth, and public figure status are not defenses to the latter, so even if the defamation is dismissed before the case goes to trial (or is defended against far later on), the other allegation can proceed. It has different criteria and standards.

1 Redactor0 2019-09-25

It never occurs to these tards that if you could win RICO cases that easily, prosecutors would use it all the time.

frenchfriedclide gives kids diseases

1 KaaraRaven 2019-09-25

I heard frenchfriedclide loves giving kids diseases.

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

You tryna catch a lawsuit, pal?

1 KaaraRaven 2019-09-25

I'd like to see him try to take a bird to court. :v

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

You say on a site where people know birdlaw.

1 princess_y_fronts 2019-09-25

birds don't care about birdlaw, man, like, that's why they are birds

1 Sea_Safer 2019-09-25

Cease this degeneracy at once.

1 KaaraRaven 2019-09-25

I didn't even do anything this time, babycakes

2 Sea_Safer 2019-09-25

YOU AREN'T A BIRD

1 KaaraRaven 2019-09-25

I don't blame you for thinking that uvu

1 McFluff_TheCrimeCat 2019-09-25

Reddit suspended that account. Lmfao.

1 KaaraRaven 2019-09-25

Child endangerment is a very serious issue and I'm glad Spez rightfully punished this sick individual.

1 ComedicSans 2019-09-25

If that's true, that's horrible!

Frenchfriedclide, yes or no - have you stopped giving children diseases?

Also, have you heard of Barbara Streisand? She has quite an effect.

1 Woolgun 2019-09-25

This is peak burger lolsuit. It's baffling to me that you can actually sue an anonymous internet account.

Like, what is the court gonna do, force reddit to unmod him?

1 TheBatarang 2019-09-25

He WANTS an apology! Not just AN apology, he wants one from spez, and from the website, and most of all he wants one from that stupid abusive mod for saying he spreads diseases to children.

1 McFluff_TheCrimeCat 2019-09-25

They have a texting service to send them messages that doesn’t verify names, emails, or phone numbers on their 90s era website. I just sent them one about how I read in their lawsuit they spread diseases.

1 Woolgun 2019-09-25

Fuck I also want an apology from Spez from taking away pinging. Can we class-action lawsuit his ass?

1 ComedicSans 2019-09-25

He is banking on reddit coughing up the real identity under subpoena.

Is it even a verified account?

1 boyoyoyoyong 2019-09-25

Jannies do it for free and have the possibility of being sued....where do I sign up

1 TruthPains 2019-09-25

Will sue for pinging!

1 CMDR-FusionCor3 2019-09-25

mod him
