There's a lot of "drunk" celebrities on twitter. I just learned about Bored Elon musk. I don't do twitter. I don't even like facebuck.

I hope Drunk Brian wins.  He's mildly amusing but more importantly the fight against parody is not a good thing.

He sadly, is gonna find out the hard way that there's tons of "Person vs. parody/critique/review" cases in the last 10 years and all of them have gone in favor of the parody.

Agreed. We have lost so much in the comedy genre due to civil rights BS. For the love of god people, get over yourselves and make fun of something!

It's the "civil rights BS" that makes parody possible.

As noted, parody is a protected form of speech.

I think he meant to say "... due to the politically correct / super easily offended BS..."

Basically every famous person on Twitter has one or more parody accounts devoted to them. I can't imagine Brian has a leg to stand on here.

Can we talk about how the president's use for "real" on his Twitter handle makes me think it's actually a fake?

No, probably not. Although, you just made me realize that the irony is that it's likely to be fake because it is really him.
