Ms. Lorek,
Your article about Richards v. X Corp fundamentally mischaracterizes this constitutional case, reducing unprecedented government-platform coordination to routine "content moderation." Here are the critical omissions:
**Government Coordination You Ignored:**
- Donald Trump was added as defendant for his role in coordinating this censorship through his relationship with Musk
- Musk simultaneously owns X while holding federal authority through DOGE, creating direct government-platform coordination
- $15.4 billion in government contracts establish clear state action
- AI systems (Grok) perform both federal surveillance AND platform censorship
**Major Case Developments Missing:**
- Separate lawsuit against CEO Linda Yaccarino, who resigned within 10 hours of being named in litigation - unprecedented in corporate history
- Systematic evidence destruction: 61,600+ posts deleted following legal notices
- Intelligence agency coordination through Vatican-tech partnerships
**Legal Misrepresentations:**
- Damages sought are $750 million, not $70 million
- This isn't about "terms of service" - it's about First Amendment violations through government coordination
- The case documents systematic religious viewpoint discrimination, not random shadowbanning
**The Real Constitutional Issue:**
When government officials coordinate with private platforms to suppress religious speech, it becomes state action subject to constitutional constraints. This case exposes the most significant digital First Amendment violation in history.
Your article serves to minimize these explosive constitutional issues by framing them as typical social media complaints. The systematic omission of government coordination, intelligence agency involvement, and corporate executive flight suggests either incomplete research or deliberate narrative management.
The American public deserves accurate reporting on constitutional violations, not sanitized summaries that protect institutional power.
Thomas Richards
