If hate speech was'nt protected by free speech, then the government could make rules regarding what hate speech is and decide what the punishment for said hate speech should be, since everyone has a different idea on what hate speech is, this could lead to extreme problems with censorship. I do not think targetted harrassment, or advokating for violence (that would lead to immediate lawlessness) are protected by free speach and should be punished. In short, yes, free speach does in fact protect hate speech unless otherwise noted (as in the Russian constitution). Look up whitney v. california and Brandenburg v. Ohio if you want proof given by the U.S Supreme Court.

If this is about america

And not europe

I cant say any thig ablut

About it*

Other than my opinion

Free speech is hate speech

I'm going off of American free speech mostly in my statement,

O

When hate speech isn't protected you get the UK

Free speech should always protect hate speech

No matter the society

I do not think targetted harrassment, or advokating for violence (that would lead to immediate lawlessness) are protected by free speach and should be punished

there is a fine line between hate speech and free speech, its fine but its there @Flash

Hate speech doesn't exist. There is speech and call to action. Calls to action int his case are directly and explicit calls for violence against a particular person or group. Speech is everything else. "Hate speech" was just something invented to make certain people feel special

so no

*in this

Yee

I agree with the abturk

Hate speech doesnt exist

Exactly

Technically it doesn't

^

People just need to stop being oversensitive

🆙 | **Führer-san leveled up!**

My point

Exactly

Congratulations, @abturk125 for reaching level 2!

If I say kill niggers that is hateful speech

Yes and no

what if I say it nicely?

No

Not to be an asshole but oversensitive ppl should either be helped or shot

Hate speech is a term to define a certain kind of speech, like compliments

Let me ghuess

@BlueOcean17 well it matters on hopw you say it i guess XD

Some ppl couldnt stand insults

Call to action and speech

So they just created a law against insults?

@BlueOcean17 And since you arn' an influencial person (I think) you should be able to say that since it won't be expected to lead to lawlessness

Like abturk said
