That seems a bit absurd. How can I control the actions of someone if they mis-understand my speech?

- talmand 11y agoWhat's funny to me is the person probably doesn't even realize that's part of the problem they are supposedly against; or scarily they might. Hate speech laws are just used to justify punishing people you don't like or wish to control. Anybody who says a person should be punished for what they say or be punished for what a different person does after hearing speech is a dangerous person. Imagine how easily punishing someone for the actions of another based on what the criminal allegedly heard could be abused? Have a critic to a high-ranking government employee? Just get someone to go out and commit crimes claiming they only did it because of the critic's speech. Bam! Instance silencing of the critic. But I'm sure in this age of enlightened human beings that kind of thing would never happen.
