Hate speech doesn't exist, they made up the term to shut you up.

      Allow me to revive the destroyed comment for the sake of the argument: > > Hate speech doesn't exist, they made up the term to shut you up. Sort of, it is difficult to draw the line somewhere because some people will disagree on the 'rules' and definition of what 'hate speech' is. > Comment was of course flagged. Because this website (like most of the internet), is controlled by the far left. Which seem to sympathize with censorship for whatever reason. I don't know about that one. But even when I present strong evidence to my claims, follow the guidelines, I still get downvoted without reason or any response as to why. As for censorship, you know that there are some HNers here who would do anything to defend their companies name; even if it means flagging and downvoting you right?

        I read the concept of 'hate speech' was invented after the Seargent's Affair. The British public was incensed at Jews after the murder of four British soldiers in Palestine, so the powerful Jewish lobby in Britain agitated that one shouldn't be able to target "religious" groups. These posts are mostly trash, since Jews have a huge animosity towards the West which they call Edom and Christianity in particular, as they consider it the source of anti-semitism, but we never see posts about that on the orange site. https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2021/05/20/king-of-kings-1927-and-the-origins-of-jewish-cultural-censorship/ https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2021/05/20/king-of-kin... https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2020/08/02/review-of-robin-diangelos-white-fragility/ https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2020/08/02/review-of-r...
