Wikipedia: Hate speech
Hate speech is defined by the Cambridge Dictionary as “public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation”. Hate speech is “usually thought to include communications of animosity or disparagement of an individual or a group on account of a group characteristic such as race, colour, national origin, sex, disability, religion, or sexual orientation”.

When someone says they want to ban “hate speech” you can bet they ACTUALLY mean banning speech they hate.

If officials ban “hate speech” (speech they hate), higher ed undermines political freedom and is not a public good. https://jaypgreene.com/2017/03/10/illiberal-education-is-not-a-public-good/

Twitter at it again ... Unfollowing my followers 100s at a time without them knowing it.
Think about that - What other company spends 100s of millions in labor to treat their own customers like shit?
They don’t ban hate speech - they ban speech they hate.
Even silly humor.

“They don’t want to ban hate speech. They want to ban speech they hate”  Islam is a cult. Islamophobia? Well how do you make a Law against a Fear? I fear we may be on a path to totalitarianism. Totaliphobla?

Hate crime is on the rise - and that’s why we need better legal definitions of #Islamophobia to help fight back. Parliament is now investigating - and needs to hear from you. So please hit the link below and give us your views:

The left only likes those who have the same ideology. They are for LBGT or minorities who fall into lockstep. If you don’t, then they must make you miserable till you comply
They don’t want to ban hate speech, they want to ban speech they hate.
