Just that I'm saying "They bought it with the money as a secondary objective, while the primary objective is destroying the hede for the lolz."


Also, unlike EU citizens (and I'm not even sure it's all of them), US citizens are mostly not protected against slapsuits, which don't require anything being illegal in the first place as their goal is damaging, or at least teaching the other party a lesson, using a court of law as an instrument.
Unlike what you might be used to, US citizens don't automatically get their lawyer's fees back from the opposing party, they have to pay them themselves, regardless of the result.
