Illegal things are illegal on the internet. Slander is illegal.

Slander is spoken. Written, it's libel.

And there's a difference between libel and stating facts about someone that they don't like. I can't say for certain which those tweets are, especially since I can't actually read them right now.

You may as well sue everyone then, especially on the internet and even more so on Twitter. To sue randos on the internet as a famous person because someone said something bad about you is just wild and petty, unless it did considerable harm to your reputation.

It's not because internet become the wild west that bringing law is "wild and petty" defamation is illegal irl, and on internet.

Calling other people pedophiles without anything backing that would get you a lawsuit even in USA, in every other country in the world much more so.

Its good that you cant just talk whatever shit you like about a person, especially regarding such extreme topics like pedophilia.
