Yea I tend to lean left more so than right but I do agree with you that there is a huge part of the left that take things way too far. I don’t agree with some people on the left calling Trump supporters Nazis or that Trump supporters are automatically racist just because they support him. It’s just ridiculous to say that. Besides the fact that they aren’t Nazis or inherently racist, calling people that also won’t make them want to listen or understand your political opinion and it definitely won’t make them change sides either.

Honestly that sentence confuses me? Are you trying to say that hate speech is bad for America? Which then I would agree with you on. I don’t like hate speech from either side of the political spectrum. Or are trying to say that hate speech isn’t real???? Because it definitely is real.

Now I do admit that sometimes free speech does get mislabeled as hate speech. So I can kinda see if you’re annoyed on that front, but there are real instances of hate speechs against peoples ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation.

LOL Yes there is such a thing as hate speech dude. Saying that hate speech isn’t real is like saying the far right or far left isn’t real. (Which is where most of the political hate speech’s come from by the way.) You saying that makes you seem like a person that might see a group of high schoolers bullying another classmate for being gay and actually defend the bully’s saying that “it wasn’t bullying, it was free speech” or blame the victim for being “soft”. Now if I’m wrong about that then I will happily eat my own words.

Bottom line is that hate speech is real on both sides of the political spectrum. Now I will admit that sometimes free speech can be mislabeled as hate speech. So I get your frustration on that front but that doesn’t mean that hate speech is fake either.

You didn’t deny it though. So you’re telling me that if you saw a group of people hovering over another person yelling homophobic slurs at them and essentially harassing them, you would think that that is free speech??? Is there really no line for you dude???? I don’t think you would say the same if a group of liberals were harassing a maga person.

Also when I’m talking about hate speech. I’m not talking about the people who just have a different view of how things should run. I’m talking about people from the far left or far right taking things too far.

Like if a conservative walks up to a liberal person who has a pride flag pin on them and starts getting in their face and yelling slurs at them. That’s hate speech.

I would also say the same thing when a liberal comes up to someone wearing a maga hat and starts yelling in their faces that they are a Nazi/fascit or that they are “white trash”. That’s hate speech.

When a far right pastor says to his church that all lgbtq people should be held in a prison and be eventually executed then that is hate speech. (Yes a pastor actually said that.)

On the flip side if a BLM supporter comes out and says that black people should treat white people as trash and encourages people to harass white people. Then yes that person is using a form of hate speech.

So what I’m trying to say is that hate speech is real. Now sometimes people do seem to confuse free speech for hate speech. Like for instance, some people might call this OP post hate speech but it’s actually free speech. Though just because some times free speech gets mislabeled as hate speech doesn’t mean that hate speech isn’t real.

All language is a human construct to serve our purposes. Every word is made up by someone to convey something.

Sorry, I should have been more direct. Me pointing out that “everything is made up” is my way of saying that the premise that hate speech is a Bolshevik invention doesn’t support the conclusion that hate speech doesn’t exist.

Furthermore the whole post is riddled with logical fallacies. Strawman (misrepresenting the definition of hate speech), genetic fallacy (your use of ‘Marxism’), poisoning the well (positioning all opposing views as comically villainous with words like Orwellian), begging the question (‘has no place in free society’ only works if it really is authoritarian bullying which you established with a false equivalency), false dilemma (the world isn’t a binary state of either feelings matter or objective truth matters), red herring (you've slowly morphed the actual argument of “can hate speech be harmful” into “are feelings more important than objective truth).

Hate speech is real. It can be harmful. It may or may not conflict with truth (which may or may not be objective). It can be used against people unfairly. Free speech is not absolute.

Didn’t miss anything?

Lol what are you on about dude? I think YOU are the pathetic person going after someone (who sides mostly with the left) that doesn’t agree with the notion that just because someone supports Trump doesn’t mean they are Nazis or racist.

What I meant by not “inherently racist” is that most far righters are racist. Now that doesn’t mean that I think all the people from the right are racist or even that the majority are racist. There is a small minority of Trump supporters that are far right racist people. That’s what I meant by the “inherently racist” part. Just like the left has a group of far lefters being racist to white people the right also has a small minority of racist people as well.

However, I believe we have a bigger problem in this country than a few dozen formerly male athletes wanting to compete in women's sports. It seems to me the sports leagues, local government, and the school boards can handle this on their own without the federal government gaslighting people into believing this is somehow a threat to the American way of life.

area, but sports leagues amend their rules every year. Adding the word biological to the rule book would not be a hard thing to do. There could be some poo slinging, much like members of TNet who threw a fit when targeting was banne. But at the end of the day, rules are rules. There is no reason for the federal government to get involved.

I agree we have larger issues but the actual number of men competing in women's events over the last 12 months is closer to a thousand, not a few dozen. And one could reasonably expect that number to grow quickly if mediocre men are allowed to suddenly become excellent female athletes.
