This analysis is completely wrong. Defamation has a fairly clear definition, causes specific damages, and is directed at an individual.

The type of hate speech that is illegal there is hate speech that advocates or incites violence or genocide. That's clear and defines how it is damaging, therefore it's not definitively slippery.
