All muslims are terrorists

@Gangstress Wow! Where did you learn that? Do you know them all?
TidyTimecheck · 46-50, M
@MartenSPhotographer Is that an attempt at satire ?
I mean Tommy Robinson.
I wouldn't vote for Corbyn, but he hasn't devoted his life to whipping up hatred the way Robinson has.

@MartenSPhotographer I didnt. I'm saying it has become the norm. Unfortunately

Any speech that incites violence or other unlawful activity is already illegal.

Otherwise, it's free speech. It's free to say hateful things and free to respond accordingly.

@SW-User how do the laws develop not being written in stone as we know...?

@Platoscave That's exactly why free speech laws usually only cover what I mentioned. They are mere guidelines but important ones to learn how to tolerate each other in society because they work.

If you limit any other kind of speech, it's only a matter of time until someone limits yours. History has proven this. A modern and less egregious example is Facebook and Twitter ban policy starting to backfire on those that demanded changes in their rules. Europe is also facing a lot of issues partly because of this.

When you start policing each other's speech, it creates resentment and unrest and then, it's only a matter of time until that powder keg blows up.

This wasn't nearly as much of a problem before the outrage culture began.

@SW-User medium is the message?

maybe.

We have to tolerate hate speech from our mothers when we don't clean our rooms. 😉
Platoscave · F
@4meAndyou nooooo..🥴
MartenSPhotographer · 51-55, M
@4meAndyou Big LOL! 🤣

I'm happy I have the age my mom don't tell me to clean my rooms anymore.
Platoscave · F

MartenSPhotographer · 51-55, M
None... 😉

(not from the left, and certainly not racist bullshit from the right)

We need more music, though.

@MartenSPhotographer Sure those religions that I listed above preach love if you're of their "race". Look to India and see the caste system, or Israel and see how they treat the Palestinians, or the rest of the Middle East and see how they treat non Arabic people. And why? Because their books say that they are the chosen ones and everyone else is lesser. Hatred disguised as religion.

@Qwerty14 question is....in your opinion where does the line get drawn, so to speak?
@Platoscave Ah that is a tough one. Very grey area. I think free speech is an illusion though. Like no country really allows you to say anything. So the real question is what restrictions should we put in place. Racial hatred seems like a good place to start, even religion based.
MartenSPhotographer · 51-55, M
I tried to post short responses. But it seems I end up in debate. And that was not my intention. So I log off from my laptop now. And go shopping. And even my mom doesn't say it to me anymore, my bedroom needs some vacuum cleaning as well... 😉

LOVE and RESPECT and also COMPASSION from The Netherlands.
It's a great country. It really is (even at second place)...

@MartenSPhotographer Love to you and yours, its been fun!
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
None, everyone should just say happy things and no one should argue or say bad things, and if they do we will call it hate speech and shut those evil fuckers up.
Platoscave · F
@FreeSpirit1 woo hoo girl..lol
MartenSPhotographer · 51-55, M
@FreeSpirit1 *saying a happy thing*
JT123 · M
Apparently the non stop leftists hate isn't going away :(
Platoscave · F
@JT123 yes but what's an example to you since you said this...
MartenSPhotographer · 51-55, M
@JT123 A nice quote especially for you by the brilliant writer Jack London (1876-1916). 😉

the whole slave- and- master thing

isn't good enough for us.

just my 2 cents
*****************************************************

it might be good enough for THEM

but that's just

not

me.

Enough would be just good

enough.

That is... all of us without

slaves

and masters
if you turn off the news and take a nice walk into the woods, where this is peace and quiet, you wont have to tolerate any of it.
Platoscave · F
@YourMomsSecretCrush what if it blares stuff about how wonderful it is to cut them all down and enough hear it?

TY ...just saying...love to you all!...

All except speech that calls for violence. Who is to say what hate speech is?
Synyster · 51-55, M
Everything nowadays is a hate speech, it's gotten out of hand.
GunSmoke9 · 56-60, M
@Platoscave I'm always on the side of freedom.
Platoscave · F
open forum here...
Synyster · 51-55, M
@Platoscave Yes hatred is something. Not liking something, isn't hatred though.

Are we supposed to love and like everything?
Peaches · F
I don't we have to tolerate any of it, but if we DO I guess it would be words from our president.
Carver · 31-35, F
All of it.
