>And imagine that once groups hit a critical mass, they also start to gather physically. And it's no longer just thoughts, but physical actions, encouraged by the entire group. Martin Luther of Christianity's Lutheranism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther_and_antisemitism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther_and_antisemitism He was German and went on the influence people for centuries to come which inevitably formed the Nazi's objectives. Though obviously taking 400 years to do so, obviously Lutheranism is a thing that still exists today. What's being described is really akin to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist The irony is that censorship works in reverse. It inflames the zeitgeist and makes it stronger. This is why racist words like hate speech isn't a problem. That freedom of speech rights cannot include exceptions for hate speech. What's a racist term for white people that you absolutely cannot say? There are tons of ethnic slurs against white people but there isn't really 1 you aren't allowed to say. There isn't really any super harmful slurs against white people. What's a racist term for black people that you absolutely cannot say? Oh ya there's many here. The N word is an obvious first choice. However, it's the censorship and disallowance of saying the word that gives it the power. So as long as there are people who disallow the use of the N word, the racism continues. Want to end racism against black people? Stop trying to stop it. Moreover, I'm pretty sure people know this. I find that the people who are most opposed to racism are often the most racist. They are doing this to continue racism. The only way forward to end racism is to drop the subject altogether.
