You can't lose, really. But they can drown you in lawyer fees. Straight up, the letter of the law in usa we have some of the highest burdens of proof for showing defamation. You have to prove that not only the person knows they're lying about something, but also that significant damage was done. You'll find European countries have much lower bars.
