You're hypothetical is flawed. A ≠ B, no matter how you present it.


Not at all. Both are considered insults. It's not too surprising you won't answer it, for fear of being seen as a racist, or something.

Leave it to sketchy user TiStuff to completely take a dump on a topic that could have been full of nuance and edification.

hate is a good and natural emotion.
Just like any other.
Hate speech is code for I don't like you saying that and don't want others to hear it.


Yep

Also, the short bus squad on here says "u mad" at least once a page on average

There is such a thing as natural revulsion and or justified contempt. Purposely misunderstanding in order to inflame, gaslighting, etc call for an appropriate level of revulsion from a reasonable and healthy person.

TLDR left wing mantra "I was only trolling I'm not actually a dumbass stop being mad lol"

I mean, it's a false equivalence. Let's just acknowledge your bait and move on to your response for arguments A and B for the sake of it.

I think that's a good way to deflect, when you aren't confident about your position and want to avoid stating an unpopular opinion.

You went from a false equivalence to a strawman, and I'm deflecting?

This your first time?

You still have not answered my original question. I'm open to changing my views if you have something intelligent to say... but this whole "I'm right, you're wrong, and I don't need to explain myself" is why it's hard to take you (and most users here) seriously.

This is a typical question only asked by the users of hate speech amongst themselves and not a serious discussion.

Well, as mentioned earlier in the thread, the United States has no legal definition of "hate speech".

If you wish to take Vereor's stance and go with the "I'm right, you're wrong, and I don't need to explain myself", that's fine, but then, what was the point of your participation in this thread?

You're not answering the question. How would you react? Are you attempting to justify violence by what someone else says?

What someone is doing to me right now bears more significance than what some people did in the past.


That word has been used by white people who want to murder black people for 200+ years, the word itself is violence.
Same as walking around with a nazi flag or SS gear, you are putting yourself behind a dangerous set of ideals and that should have consequences.
My great uncle died on the beach at gallipoli in one of the most horrific scenes in the history of mankind to help stop facism, i will not abide by pieces of trash walking around parading that flag in front of me in a first world country.
