    Yeah but what is hate speech when it comes to religion? For hardcore religious people blasphemy is hate speech. Like when that French teacher just showed drawings of Muhammed in historical context it was enough reason for a Muslim to kill him.

      If you don’t know what hate speech is I don’t know what to tell you. Or are you doing the equivalent of the “what is a woman” nonsense?

      I made a few statements.

      1. Satire is fine. Agree/ disagree? I think we agree

      2. Hate speech is not. Agree/ disagree? I don’t know if we agree

      3. Neither should come with a death penalty? Agree disagree? I hope we agree

      4. I personally don’t cry over dead bigots. A personal statement. Undebatable unless you want to call me a liar.

      5. There’s a time and space for jokes. For some jokes there’s neither. Agree/ disagree? I don’t know if we agree.

        I think his response was clear. Hate speech can be twisted into anything you want as it’s just an opinion.

          I thought they were disagreeing with point two, I don’t want to jump to conclusions though. Social media is full of “so you think [extreme nonsense here]” I am trying to be better than that.

          I dunno. I was around for the “it’s PC culture gone mad” position from yonder year. Their comment was similar to arguments made back then about racism, transphobia, homophobia, any protected class really.
