Thankyou! Yes, the moral framing section is possibly the part of the book I'm most pleased with. And for RAW fans it hopefully gives an added depth to the Patrist/Matrist thing.

Multimillionaire Taibbi has little to lose by frivolously suing. He gets to hurt a critic & dissuade others from speaking out. And it does seem frivolous: his case is that he received no money from Musk. But that wasn't Higgins' claim in the book! A lawsuit built on a straw man? To silence someone.
