Facebook is the problem in a lot of ways (not all). Making hate viral to millions of people in a decentralized network is an innovation that I am not happy about. What to do about it I don't know and haven't heard many convincing arguments. I do think European style bans on hate speech might be a positive change. Europe has a lot of weird cultural things as a result of their imperialist and colonial past, but their recent experience with genocide and war does lend them some credibility in terms of how they have adapted. I think they have mostly open societies with high quality of life and not many compromises in terms of "liberty". I equate liberty with overall quality of life, not the liberty of individuals to abnegate societal obligations. So bans on hate speech, and attendant penalties, I see precedent where little harm has been done but a lot of harm has been mitigated.
