You can't sue people for deciding NOT to patronize the service you sell, idiot
He's not suing the advertisers, he's suing a watchdog who's pointing out all the antisemitism and whatnot, which causes the advertisers to flee because in his world, none of it is bad.
Yes advertisers are only publicly insulted not sued : “Many of the largest advertisers are the greatest oppressors of your right to free speech.”
I suppose that's meant to inspire confidence they will not be sued, only slightly bullied if they come back.
