You forgot that with defamation, not only does the statement need to be false, you need to prove that the defendant KNEW it was false. If they are just wrong or misled/misinformed, it's not defamation. This is EXTREMELY difficult to prove.
Not just that, you have to prove the defendant knew the statement was false AND that the person stated the false claim to damage a person’s reputation. and in a lot of places, a victim will not get a single cent if there was no genuine harm done to their reputation (and losing friends & being bullied online doesn’t count as a damaged reputation)
@@JimmiJam I know, I was just adding additional info he missed about that particular point. Essentially, You need to prove that a lie was told to cause damages and that it did so. There are 3 very difficult things to prove embedded in this. A) proving that someone knowingly lied. B) proving they lied in order to cause tangible damages. C) that the damages occured and were a direct result of the lies. This is trickier than it seems, as it means that if you were fired/not hired for something, you need it on record that the lies were the reason. You need to prove 3 separate things that should exist entirely in People's minds, if said people have any sense at all. Everyone needs to be monumentally stupid for the plaintiff to have a record of any of this, much less all of it. If any one person in this chain, keeps their mouth shut on why/if they lied, or why an employer fired the plaintiff, or these things are only communicated verbally, the case is kaput.

I think people need to be taken to task on these things, but most don't have the time and money to do it. You can't just call people sexual predators as an insult or some off-hand remark. That's literally the kind of thing someone might harm or outright kill you in public for (and we all know pedophiles don't last long in prison if they're put with the general population). To paraphrase what Mike Tyson said, people have gotten too comfortable disrespecting others and not getting punched in the face for it.
I hate when there are legitimate groomers and pedos in many communities, people still need to make up BS on innocent people for clout. This is disgusting.
yeah, our human society has reached to a point this to them is "normal" if we were to continue going to that direction, its bound to bring danger to our human race heck, even distruction and violence.. We really need to go back
It's scary to know that your life could be upended because one person decides to record you in public and post it to TikTok. Sure, you can put out information on people that either run off or dodge legal consequences. But you can also spread false information super easily. This is actually a common tactic to, where online crazies and their journalist friends will repeat the same labels over and over to smear someone, with most having no money to fight back (e.g., J.K. Rowling got someone to retract their comment on her because she actually threatened to take them to task in court over it). Twitter's the same place where a 19 year-old will be called a predator for dating a 17 year-old, or where someone tall will be called a predator because of their short, young-looking partner, despite being close (if not the same) in age. If it's not a problem people can throw tweets and online doxxes at they don't care to engage.

Even if people hate furries or trans people, they should at least care about the fact that this just makes this harder for real victims of grooming. Valid Ls used the experience of victims to troll someone he doesn’t know. For clout.
people like him deserve to go through what Junko Furuta went through, not even joking. These failed abortions are always safe behind their screens, reusing the same insult/joke about fatherless people, not realizing how hypocritical they are. Especially the transphobic subhumans
I think you have legal grounds if someone is trying to falsely claim you're a sex offender. Should be an easy case if you have the evidence of them conspiring to defame you. That stuff will ruin your chance of being employed and in some places will definitely get you stabbed.
This is true. You do have to claim financial damages otherwise, but (and I believe this is the case unless I'm misconstruing this with another aspect of defamation, and if I am it might be the "actual malice" caveat) there can be cases where the claim is so egregious that the court assumes that there was damage anyway, which is usually the case for extreme statements like stating someone has an STD, or is a sexual offender, things that can actually get them ostracized or stigmatized in society.
@@Gunblazer42 Yeah you wouldn't need to prove damages for a case like this. Honestly if they took the guy to court, it'd probably be a slam dunk, but you would have to consider that you have to convince a jury that a furry is right about anything XD

@@neilisawesome2333 'Only Twitter'. There are certain communities in Twitter that communicate different in correlation with their niches. Furry culture on twitter, and in seeming congruity with Art-Twitter. Other communities are much more accommodating, and peaceful, they're just the silent minority lately. This rings true for really any social media platform. The idea that even 90% of people on a platform are somehow unreasonable or shitty is disingenuous, and hyperbole.
It was obvious from the start that Valid L's only objective was to get under the skin of the people he was targeting, the fact that the furry/trans community celebrated a frivolous lawsuit which had very little chance of actually going through just gave Valid L's more reason to keep going. He achieved what he seeked to do

It doesn't mean anything anymore. 2) Creators/streamers love positive and negative attention because it brings them more views. 3) Forever online people that play games designed for autists are professional victims and attention seeking sociopaths that greatly exaggerate the importance of what they do and should just be ignored. 4)Grow up please.
It's a shame that he has no idea how the laws are applied since 99% of shit he said was wrong. Posting a fake image showing someone being a pedophile when you 100% know it's fake is defamation. Literally called a pedo. The fact that L has a audience he knew full well what would happen. Considering he is a troll account, who flocks to trolls? Other trolls. There is 0% chance that L did not think he would start an harassment campaign by sharing false screenshots.
Oh man, I remember seeing this pop up in one of the discord servers I'm in. Doesn't matter which side you're on, if you try to fake evidence against someone and try to destroy their reputation, you're a horrible person who should never be allowed to use the internet ever again.
Bro, what the hell. I love trolling. I do it myself sometimes... But I would never go this far like hurting innocent people and I don't support that kind of stuff. That shit is cruel. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I knew I just hurt someone innocent like this. It's sickening. My thoughts go out to Blue. Stay strong.
Yo, im the one who made the initial Bluefolf video. I told her there was a large chance you would cover the situation, im glad to see that you were amicable about things. Blue hasn’t touched a dime, shes shown me bank statments. GFM is just slow with these things. She really was just unaware of the difficulties in a legal battle. When “just sue them!” Is the default twitter response to defamation, its easy to overestimate your ability to go through the legal process.
This was actually kind of an eye opener. I disliked furries (Though I never really acted against them because I'm not *that* much of an asshole), but seeing how blue was treated by their own parents when there wasn't even any evidence, I kinda feel bad now. I of course still think furries are weird and cringey, but its better than ruining their lives for gits and shiggles
I have never, ever understood hating or disliking furries, ever. Thinking they're weird or cringe? Sure, I can understand that, everything somebody does is going to be weird and cringe to atleast one other person, but disliking an entire group of people because they partake in a harmless hobby? I can't. I don't understand how anybody can hate/ dislike a group of people who aren't hurting anybody because they share a hobby, or a trait, or whatever.
@@tuxtitan780 I can understand disliking, because finding a hobby extremely cringey or weird goes hand in hand with finding everyone who partakes in it extremely cringey or weird. Hate, or actively wishing harm against them, is pretty insane though.
@@forciblefollower this person would on ironically trying argue that they fight in favour of human decency and progress and yet they threatened to kill anyone who would even suggest that they are wrong
Trolling is one thing, intentionally trying to ruin someone’s life by lying about something they did is another. The internet and social media has made people too comfortable with being pieces of shit. Sadly, Blue doesn’t really have any solid material for an actual case to succeed.
All of this would have been avoid had twitter actually enforced their ToS about harassment and hate speech. But since Elon owns it, you can harass any trans person you want and face no punishment from twitter. Which is upsetting because many of us just want to be online and connect with others without having to be targets of PoS like Valid Ls. I've legit reported people making threats of violence against trans people just being trans and twitter tells me that nothing was wrong with the tweets. If that doesn't tell you how twitter views us, then I don't know what will.
its genuinely disgusting that someone would contact her PARENTS about this lie. if this was done to any other normal female influencer there would be an uproar, but since that she's a furry (and trans), people dont care or assume she 'deserved it'. what a horrible world we live in.
The uploader literally said they hate furries. Dunno why you're here looking at someones opinion that clearly never through a lawyer and has ZERO understanding of the law.

adding btw! my brother works for the bundeswehr (basically military and he trained me in stealth and scouting so i know how hard the military training just for these 2 is and lemme tell ya ITS HARD AS HELL) and then seeing these haters wanting to act as soldiers without knowledge of how hard it is to be trained and then the serving by actually killing others to protect ur homeland they will never understand how hard it is or will be but haters be acting high mighty and as always being better but this person here did a video on this he doesnt like furries but doesnt downgrade them either he is going neutral and exposes both sides so im quite ok this such u dont gotta like furries or love furries even if ur an anti furry (i have an anti furry friend) when a furry approaches u simply tell them "im sorry i dont like furries could u leave me alone?" (my anti fur friend and this are his words! "idc what u furries do idc how kinky yall get leave me alone with that shit and we good") most furries will understand and just leave u alone
@DoggyBingBong I'm gonna assume that isn't true, because you just made a statement which is seemingly completely random. But even if it was, how is that anything more than weird?

I love that message you put at the end. People need to quit just assuming every mistake someone made is evil and ask if maybe they were mistaken or just did something dumb. Or at least find evidence it was intentional before jumping to cancelling.
That’s very true, but there needs to be a point where these aren’t harmless mistakes and someone legitimately going out of their way to be malicious, and ValidL’s has crossed that limit a WHILE ago.
And this is why twitter is the cesspit of the internet and I don't go on twitter. Some of the stuff from twitter is funny, but the majority is idiocy, bigotry and politically motivated aggression.
I don't understand these popufur accounts in general sometimes, im not sure how they generate such a large community of fans, but its usually young folk who follow them which is easy for some creeps to abuse.

Ngl I'm a furry and I watch your videos. Many furries are cringe, but who isn't a little? No one deserves to get attacked for their interests or for being cringe. This whole situation is unnecessary.
This is actually my position almost everyone has something about them that's "cringe" but there is no real defining point of "cringe". It's almost all subjective.

Doxxing is a Crime in several states. however in the remaining states they can be charged with something called Menacing by Stalking. So depending on your prosecutor, Yes, you can be tried for doxing.
I just dont get how people can respect someone's "opinions" when they literally go against a whole communitys existence and safety and rights. Those "opinions" can cause so much harm, they shouldn't be respected and allowed to circulate.
Twitter could be held liable. For the 47 protection you can't moderate the content and Twitter does some very heavy moderating of content. So there is a case for Twitter to be held liable.
I swear, there is no such thing as a strong case for Defamation. If I was a lawyer I would NEVER take on a case that only had the charge of defamation. It is one of the hardest things to sue for. You have to prove intent and that the person behind the defamation knew for a fact that what they were saying isn't true. This is why defamation is most often brought up in court cases when there are multiple charges to put against someone instead of defamation on its own. Someone could have what they consider strong evidence of defamation, however, there are just too many issues with it. I know that at least in the United States, when going to court something has to be proven without doubt which is difficult to do in anything that is he said/she said situations. You can claim that someone had the intent to defame you, but that's not enough. And if the Jury or judge can't be one hundred percent convinced of intent, if there is even a small hint of doubt, then the case technically can't be won. If you're suing for defamation, it's best as just one charge out of multiple or at least two. Make sure the other charge is strong enough, because defamation on its own is going to be one hell of a thing trying to prove.
Well because many furries share similar traits and childhood trauma. Most actions that are the same throughout childhood lead to the same characteristic changes in the individual.
@VisionaryPill childhood trauma comes in many many forms. That happens to be my wheel house and my line of work. This has hints of self identity problems, social problems, anxioty, addiction and unhealthy and unsafe practices. Trauma gets you to the door, society opens it.
As a furry for over 15 years, I NEVER understood why furs would want to get big or popular. This shit is crazy. The drama isn't worth it. You can be a fur and not be the target for fake accusations if you just act like a decent person and not an attention craving you know what.
@@thisisobviouslybait Na, not true honestly. I have met plenty in my life that were beyond decent, truly. I know it's not a common perception and you are completely in the right to your opinion.
Remember, just because harassment slowed down doesn't mean people don't still harass and attack furries for no reason. Also, everyone should have the right to push for public fame, just becuase you're a furry shouldn't change that, we got rights you know. Absolutely no one should be sharing doctored screenshots making you out as a pedophile. ValidL KNEW what he was doing. He KNEW his community and he KNEW what kind of havoc it'll cause.
@@thisisobviouslybait yup and that's why there has been multiple shootings at furry based events where kids, innocent parents, and normal everyday people were attending. Sounds like completely "decent person" behavior to me. People like you make me sick, you completely disregard actual hate crimes by "decent people". Do better.
@@palletblossom1882And there have been multiple shootings in schools and in churches. Does the education system make you sick? Does the religious aspect of the church make you sick?

Don’t be a blind hate filled narcissist.
Okay I hate furries but jeez, getting a minor doxxed is crazy. I thought ValidL's knew right from wrong. Sure I can sometimes be a little homophobic and furryphobic but I genuinely think a person apart of lgbtq, furry community, or even IS a furry should NEVER be harassed like this. I feel bad for Blue to be honest, and I might even start supporting him. Depends.
Re: the legality of doxxing, it's legal because most of the time the people being doxxed shared that info themselves and can no longer consider it private/personal information. People use their real names online, share the city or state they live in, or even talk about the company they work for by name. All the public info found as a result of what you share is perfectly legal to share with others as long as there is no call to violence (and yes, those cheeky "I hope nobody does xyz" captions do count as calls to violence). If you only use pseudonyms and go to great lengths to hide your ID online but you get doxxed anyway, that could be considered illegal because you did not want that info to be public.
Calls to violence are protected by the first amendment Just like it's illegal to say "I'm going to kill the prez" but it's legal to say "someone should kill the prez"
actually its because you have no privacy interest in your adress. the minute a 3rd party gets involved that interest is pretty much forfeit. if it weren't publishing phone books would have been a crime. rekeita law actually did a full explanation of why that is the case but that's the gist.
@@elrojogrande744 Did someone say that addresses were private info?

@Chica De i was correcting you on why it is not illegal. the reason you gave is actually incorrect from the legal perspective. its not illegal because you have no privacy interest in your adress, not because you would have to reveal other information for it to be found. thats not how the law works.

Furries on Twitter and Facebook are cancer. This is coming from a furry. Also thanks for taking a rational stance on this despite your dislike for furries man. Props Tom.
People on Twitter are in lala land because they are really upset the lawsuit didn’t happen and think they gave up on it out of “pressure”. When they’re literally nothing they can do legally to win against Valid L and to even payback damages.
Thank you for clarifying that the miniscule gross people on the internet give furries and trans people a bad reputation, and also calling out this assumptive slanderous behavior. More people open their eyes and realize that being a furry or trans is just a part of identity and doesn't make people do demented things, and that anyone who still thinks this way clearly hasn't met a furry or trans person in real life.
Sure. It's just PURE CO-INCIDENCE, the endless stream of furries exposing themselves as p-doughs and/or animal abusers. And I TOTALLY agree- Grown men inviting themselves into the changerooms where 6yo girls undress is not concerning AT ALL. It's perfectly normal to believe that WISHING transforms men into women!!!

It's scary to know that your life could be upended because one person decides to record you in public and post it to TikTok. Sure, you can put out information on people that either run off or dodge legal consequences. But you can also spread false information super easily. This is actually a common tactic to, where online crazies and their journalist friends will repeat the same labels over and over to smear someone, with most having no money to fight back (e.g., J.K. Rowling got someone to retract their comment on her because she actually threatened to take them to task in court over it).
Twitter's the same place where a 19 year-old will be called a predator for dating a 17 year-old, or where someone tall will be called a predator because of their short, young-looking partner, despite being close (if not the same) in age. If it's not a problem people can throw tweets and online doxxes at they don't care to engage.

I think you have legal grounds if someone is trying to falsely claim you're a sex offender. Should be an easy case if you have the evidence of them conspiring to defame you. That stuff will ruin your chance of being employed and in some places will definitely get you stabbed.
If you’re a public figure it’s way harder
@internet traveler maybe, I don't think this random furry would qualify but who knows. I'm still interested in how the Ethan Klein one will turn out.
This is true. You do have to claim financial damages otherwise, but (and I believe this is the case unless I'm misconstruing this with another aspect of defamation, and if I am it might be the "actual malice" caveat) there can be cases where the claim is so egregious that the court assumes that there was damage anyway, which is usually the case for extreme statements like stating someone has an STD, or is a sexual offender, things that can actually get them ostracized or stigmatized in society.

I have never, ever understood hating or disliking furries, ever. Thinking they're weird or cringe? Sure, I can understand that, everything somebody does is going to be weird and cringe to atleast one other person, but disliking an entire group of people because they partake in a harmless hobby? I can't. I don't understand how anybody can hate/ dislike a group of people who aren't hurting anybody because they share a hobby, or a trait, or whatever.

Sadly, Blue doesn’t really have any solid material for an actual case to succeed.
All of this would have been avoid had twitter actually enforced their ToS about harassment and hate speech. But since Elon owns it, you can harass any trans person you want and face no punishment from twitter. Which is upsetting because many of us just want to be online and connect with others without having to be targets of PoS like Valid Ls. I've legit reported people making threats of violence against trans people just being trans and twitter tells me that nothing was wrong with the tweets. If that doesn't tell you how twitter views us, then I don't know what will.

Idk why but it was funny to me
I swear, there is no such thing as a strong case for Defamation. If I was a lawyer I would NEVER take on a case that only had the charge of defamation. It is one of the hardest things to sue for. You have to prove intent and that the person behind the defamation knew for a fact that what they were saying isn't true. This is why defamation is most often brought up in court cases when there are multiple charges to put against someone instead of defamation on its own. Someone could have what they consider strong evidence of defamation, however, there are just too many issues with it. I know that at least in the United States, when going to court something has to be proven without doubt which is difficult to do in anything that is he said/she said situations. You can claim that someone had the intent to defame you, but that's not enough. And if the Jury or judge can't be one hundred percent convinced of intent, if there is even a small hint of doubt, then the case technically can't be won. If you're suing for defamation, it's best as just one charge out of multiple or at least two. Make sure the other charge is strong enough, because defamation on its own is going to be one hell of a thing trying to prove.

Re: the legality of doxxing, it's legal because most of the time the people being doxxed shared that info themselves and can no longer consider it private/personal information. People use their real names online, share the city or state they live in, or even talk about the company they work for by name. All the public info found as a result of what you share is perfectly legal to share with others as long as there is no call to violence (and yes, those cheeky "I hope nobody does xyz" captions do count as calls to violence).
If you only use pseudonyms and go to great lengths to hide your ID online but you get doxxed anyway, that could be considered illegal because you did not want that info to be public.
Calls to violence are protected by the first amendment
Just like it's illegal to say "I'm going to kill the prez" but it's legal to say "someone should kill the prez"
actually its because you have no privacy interest in your adress. the minute a 3rd party gets involved that interest is pretty much forfeit.
if it weren't publishing phone books would have been a crime.
rekeita law actually did a full explanation of why that is the case but that's the gist.
@@elrojogrande744 Did someone say that addresses were private info? I'm only seeing your response even though youtube is telling me there's 2🤷♀
Anyway yeah your home address is public info, but no one would be able to find your home address if you don't use your IRL name online or share any other identifying information.
@Chica De i was correcting you on why it is not illegal. the reason you gave is actually incorrect from the legal perspective.
its not illegal because you have no privacy interest in your adress, not because you would have to reveal other information for it to be found. thats not how the law works.
@@elrojogrande744 I never said that was illegal so 🤷♀

The adage you were thinking of was Hanlon’s Razor: never attribute to malice that which can be attributed to stupidity.
'Caught with their pants down, tail between their legs'
I don't know if you said it on purpose but this line being in a vid about furries killed me
better legal analysis than i'm used to seeing by commentary youtubers, im very impressed turkey tom
Greetings, oh gracious leader, the farm is going very well.
Hanlon's Razor:“never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” I'm always giving people the benefit of the doubt by calling them idiots instead of assholes.
I remember following blue since a bit before coming out because i thought it was someone else's account, never paid too much attention afterward and the last thing i saw was one of the tweets about the lawsuit only to forget about it probably the same day. it resurfaced in my feed like a few days before this video and i was confused af on what was going on lmao
This guys personally protected by my god, boys, tread lightly on sacred ground before raging at this unecessarily.
3:18 that has got to be one of the most messed up things i have ever seen. Imagine getting a text like that from your dad. It baffles me how awful people can be. Like what do you gain from this? A high? A short rush? Clout? Your not really gaining anything. If anything you're losing something.

"never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity" that is the quote you were looking for.
They would never win this in court. With the current information out there, theres no possible way. 200k in lawyers wouldn't win this...

why are these furries so bad at bowling
Father found out? Great. Now more people gonna make fun of them f or being "fatherless"
Ironic considering their fathers are possibly worse than my father, and mines bad. I feel pity on people who do that.
People on Twitter are in lala land because they are really upset the lawsuit didn’t happen and think they gave up on it out of “pressure”.
When they’re literally nothing they can do legally to win against Valid L and to even payback damages.
Thank you for clarifying that the miniscule gross people on the internet give furries and trans people a bad reputation, and also calling out this assumptive slanderous behavior. More people open their eyes and realize that being a furry or trans is just a part of identity and doesn't make people do demented things, and that anyone who still thinks this way clearly hasn't met a furry or trans person in real life.
Sure. It's just PURE CO-INCIDENCE, the endless stream of furries exposing themselves as p-doughs and/or animal abusers.
And I TOTALLY agree- Grown men inviting themselves into the changerooms where 6yo girls undress is not concerning AT ALL. It's perfectly normal to believe that WISHING transforms men into women!!!
I, too, care more about affirming grown men's fetishes, than I care about the safety and privacy of women and girls... or about simple, evidence-based truth...
Thanks. You do this, you are no different than an actual racists or homophobic people

Twitter furries are something else, as a furry going on 7 years, its hard to watch all these other furs make stupid decisions, especially the younger members of the fandom, I've just usually kept to myself and the few other furry friends I interact with. Aside from a yearly convention I don't interact with the general furry community, too much cringe going on for my tastes.
Here before some extremely-thinking people try to accuse you of something outrageous, very based post, sir.
if you're a furry then you should know that this type of stuff is just an occupational hazard

4:50 WOW, HE does not pass, not one bit
She* passing is not required
@@midnightrose_ holy mother of based, batman!
@@AuriofTheHooligans 😭
@@midnightrose_ its a male
@@midnightrose_ Passing IS required, that's like the entire point of being trans, to pass as the opposite sex, so you'll stop feeling dysphoric, or feel LESS dysphoric. :P
It's not about convincing yourself, it's about convincing others that you're female, because if people don't SEE you as the opposite sex, that makes you feel dysphoric.
So yeah, passing is pretty much required, otherwise, you're not trans, just a self-obsessed n*rcissistic autogynephiliac creep like most self-proclaimed trans people are. :P
Just because you claim to be trans, doesn't mean you are trans... Same way anyone can claim to be disabled, without actually being disabled, or claim to be a tree, without actually BEING a tree. xD
use your head.
This whole video sums up to, "Who gives a sh*t?"
I wish the accusations being "fake" was more explained, because I wasn't quite convinced. Why do people think it was fake?
i'd say people thought it was fake because there was literally know other proof or further screenshots as well as proof of anything else being part of it. a screenshot on it's own of a chat is not good evidence and can often be easily faked.
Apparently the noise levels in the screenshot were inconsistent, although that counterclaim could have just as easily been faked.
screenshots of chats are worthless. anyone can easily fake anything
