This is part of a disturbing new trend of "political discrimination". If someone opposes the policies of an identity group, in this case mixed-race marriages, but it could be women, gays, or rural white Christians, then that opposition is labeled "hate". Once labeled, their speech is deemed offensive and censored, and they become fair game for political discrimination, to be fired from their jobs, kicked off social media, and otherwise ostracized.
- sleepychu 9y agoCan you explain what you mean by the "policies of an identity group"? In general the minority identity groups only policy is that they ought to be treated just like everyone else. I'd say that if you're trying to maintain a status quo where the majority is treated preferentially that your opposition is "hate" as is meant by the word today.

- PrimHelios 9y agoNo, they got kicked off of their hosts because they were harassing Heather Hayes' grieving family. TDS are literally neo-nazis, not just some asshats who don't like interracial marriage. You either have literally no clue what you're talking about, or you're being purposefully intellectually dishonest.
