RE: France and Facebook announce partnership against online hate speech – POLITICO
I prefer to discuss issues than to silence those who feel that way...
What do you define as hate speech?
I like black people, I also like trans people, I also like 50 year old white men. Most don't hate.. The few that do, still will even if they are silenced. I would prefer to know who they are.
Its cool that talking to nazis and bigots is an academic pursuit and a game to solve, but for actual minorities talking to these people can get us killed. Please understand why we need this policy in place, to mitigate damage.
You do not at all understand the violence and trauma that being subjected to heinous garbage can give when it happens to you on a daily or even minutely basis like a lot of us experience
Hate speech are slurs, conspiracies, and other shit that targets innocent people. Hate is violence. Just because you're lucky/privileged doesn't mean it doesnt have material damage.

I strongly disagree with nearly everything you said. Conspiracies are not hate speech, they are just ideas. Slurs/names, I don't respect them, I don't use them. I am capable of hearing it and making a calm argument against them.
Do you ever wonder if calling people nazis and bigots is hate speech?
You cant disagree with lived experience and material effect. To you it's an academic pursuit, to people like me its life or death. You literally cannot disagree with fact.
Calling someone out for being terrible isn't hate speech. Actions and expressions speak louder than your skin color or gender identity. Anyone who disagrees is wrong, factually.

People like you? You look white, so I've have to guess you are trans. Well, that doesn't matter to me in the least.
I can argue with that. Rarely a person is killed for being a color or different. But it is rare although horrific.
I absolutely agree that actions are more important than color or gender or sexual preferences.
I also think it is utter dumb and nonsensical to hate someone for having dinner with their father, to assume someone is rich because their father is rich and to throw around nasty names while being upset that others throw around nasty names. Grow up and hold yourself to your own standards.
Again, you dont understand the material effects of hate speech. The trans attempted suicide rate is 46%. Nearly half of all trans people want to kill themselves. Why is that? Because of the garbage you defend with your fake moral purity of "all ideas are equal and harmless" routine. Defending hate speech is a sacrificial policy stance that doesnt affect you so you don't care about the damage and just pretend it's a game to win, rather than a real world issue.
I dont get it.

Would calling someone a cunt for who her father is, be hate speech? lol
Calling a racist a mean name is justified, sorry your feefees got hurt. Be a better person. Racism is bad, selfish rich people are bad.

hahaha... you are hysterical.. both as in funny and as in hysterical. I've now glanced over your blog...
Nice job on recently giving up slurs. hahahha
So you have no argument left and resort to character attacks? Sounds like hate speech to me. Have fun being a privileged yokel, I'm sure you deserve it.
