I see how this is used in practice. I don't know about France, but in Poland both sides use that label when convenient, and of course they refer to completely different things, yet always done by their political opponents.
- thrance 2y agoCan you point to any specific cases? You are being very vague and seem to rely on anecdotal evidence.
- zb3 2y agoI won't go this route. If you're planning to label views shared by 30% of voters as "hate speech" then I alredy disagree. Like I said, this is a political position.
- thrance 2y agoYou can advocate for conservative policies without calling black people the n-word or telling trans people to hang themeselves. And you're certainly not going to get in trouble for anything less than that, so I really don't see what you're whining about. Hate speech is what it says on the label, if you feel like it is an essential part of your particular ideology, then I find it repugnant and so does our laws. It's a political position just as making it illegal to murder political opponents is a political position.
