There is nowhere that would be a hate crime. Absolute hyperbole.

  Maybe not a crime, but you've got to pay attention. Scotland is inching that. https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-42652947 https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-42652947

    That's wild. Also this[1] one is interesting. Apparently the new hate crime law is being interpreted in a generous way toward the thoughtcrime offenders of Scotland so far (the "stirring up hate" is said to be a 'high bar'), but since it's based on a subjective standard, there's zero reason future governments can't revise their understanding of the law in a way that isn't so liberal. 1. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-68712471 https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-68712471
