No, harassment is the action of repeatedly crafting then using deliberately harmful speech toward a specific target. It's not about the speech at all. The speech can change. The combination of repetition, intention of harm, and specific target can not.
And you speak about consequences, but those consequences are the one that should be punished. Because you can assess consequences. You can evaluate damages. You can't evaluate the value of words.
If you say "kill the xx" one time, it really doesn't matter.
If you say "kill the xx" and that it leads to attempt to kill, then the problem is the intent to kill.

- matt4077 9y ago> deliberately harmful speech So there is harmful speech. Thanks. > Otherwise South park / Rick and Morty could not exist. South Park is freely shown on TV stations in basically any country that has enough of an audience to make economic sense. Every single one of those countries has more restrictive laws regarding hate speech, yet they also seem to have the capability to distinguish between a TV show and and armed mob with swastikas.
