"""Admitting this is even the case (which it isn't, as people recently are being cancelled for being just moderate, or for stuff they said when they were teenagers which is ridiculous), how can you justify having someone fired by a mob for something they SAID, therefore denying their livelihood?""
Go into your bosses office and use an ethnic slur and tell me what happens. Speech has consequences and hate speech rightfully has more consequences.
- luckylion 6y ago> Speech has consequences and hate speech rightfully has more consequences. And you define what "hate speech" is and how severe the "consequences" are supposed to be. If you feel that something that was said about you is hate speech and you feel that only beating up the person would be an adequate consequence, then by all means, go for it?
