The King County Superior Court just granted our motion for summary judgment in full, dismissing all claims with prejudice and ruling on our declaratory judgment counterclaim we have the right to use "the Memes Page".

It has been 1635 DAYS since The Satanic Temple filed their case against us in federal district court.

We got it dismissed there once in February 2021; we got it dismissed again in January 2023 after TST re-filed.

The Satanic Temple appealed the second loss to the Ninth Circuit and also re-filed part of the case in state court in April 2023 — notably after the three-year statute of limitations had run out.

The Ninth Circuit affirmed most of the lower federal court decision but allowed TST to revive their defamation claims if they could specify what exactly had been said about them that was false and defamatory.

Apparently unable to do so, The Satanic Temple voluntarily dismissed the federal case against us.

Meanwhile, in 2022, TST sued Newsweek for writing about our case back in October 2021.

The Satanic Temple dragged us into those proceedings to give depositions, but Newsweek seems to be prevailing with just one claim remaining.

Holy crap! Thank you for following, because I would not have known that TST was doing these types of petty lawsuit over folks being critical of their practices. I will note this!

Thank you!

Of course! A lot of the members are good people, but they're supporting something that hurts people, and, it turns out, TST's owners are pretty awful all around

if you can, make some time for these, it may be worth your while
