ER Editor: Notice how Brand Elon gets used again? He’s been in the headlines a lot in the last month. As has chromosomally male Algerian boxer, Imane Khelif. Once again, this is being played where Elon champions free speech. Cue, J.K. Rowling (now being used as a brand?), with a few tweets below reminding us of the author’s contribution to the Biological Women Exist debate.
Notice also that the legal case brought by Khelif has the possible repercussion of shutting down free speech online globally. This is a similar threat to the one Sir Mark Rowley crazily put out against Musk. Would France be able to extradite people for such offences if they are proved to be so?
(Somebody else pointed this out already, but notice the Algerian boxer’s first name looks like ‘I man’. A comm?)

I REFUSE TO BOW DOWN TO A MOVEMENT THAT SHOWS DEMONSTRABLE HARM IN SEEKING TO ERODE ‘WOMAN’ AS A POLITICAL AND BIOLOGICAL CLASS AND OFFERING COVER TO PREDATORS LIKE FEW BEFORE IT.

Other outlets have picked up the Imane Khelif litigation story. See Politico.eu (strong MSM warning; they believe Khelif was born a female despite failing two gender tests —
French authorities to investigate Algerian boxer Khelif’s cyberbullying charges against Elon Musk, J.K. Rowling
The French police’s hate crimes unit will investigate Algerian boxer Imane Khelif’s charges of cyberbullying on the grounds of gender.
The Paris prosecutor instructed them to do so on Wednesday after Khelif filed a complaint Monday with France’s national center for combating online hate.
In an interview with Variety on Tuesday, Khelif’s attorney Nabil Boudi revealed that the criminal complaint names J.K. Rowling and Elon Musk, as they referred online to Khelif as a man in questioning her eligibility to participate in the Olympics. Boudi described the online hate center as part of Paris’ correctional court.

Of note:
The attorney also noted that the lawsuit was filed against X, which under French law means that it was filed against unknown persons. That “ensure[s] that the ‘prosecution has all the latitude to be able to investigate against all people,” Boudi said.

Human Rights Lawyer: Olympic Boxer’s “Cyberbullies” Lawsuit A Threat To Free Speech
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news
A human rights lawyer has warned that a lawsuit brought by Algerian Olympic boxer Imane Khelif against the likes of Elon Musk and JK Rowling could set a significant precedent against free speech.
Khelif, who competed and won a gold medal in the women’s welterweight division, despite having XY chromosomes, is charging that prominent personalities and bodies engaged in “acts of aggravated cyber harassment.”
Questions were raised by both the World Boxing Organisation and the International Boxing Association regarding Khelif’s eligibility to compete as a woman following two previous ‘failed’ gender tests.
Speaking to GB News, human rights lawyer David Haigh warned that the lawsuit could lead to “policing of social media” across borders.
Haigh outlined “If they proceed with this, the Paris prosecutors have the reach jurisdiction to come to other countries. And if that is the case, that then is a very concerning development.”
“You can have countries around the world basically policing social media in other countries. It could be a very, very significant case in free speech, the use of social media,” Haigh added.
‘This could be a very significant case both in free speech and gender politics.’

He continued, “are we now going to see France trying to extradite or issuing arrest warrants for JK Rowling? It’s a very slippery slope and it could become a very significant case.”
The lawyer also noted that the case could also set a legal precedent in terms of gender ideology.
“If it proceeds, and that’s a big if, it could have significant ramifications. Whether or not there has been harassment, you will have a debate on what is and isn’t a man or a woman in the court,” he noted.
“If part of whether or not there has been harassment and abuse comes down to whether or not that boxer is a man or a woman, obviously evidence will need to be put forward on both sides of that,” Haigh further explained.
