For those who think hate speech is a concept worth taking seriously, I have a created a moniker for you: Hate Haters.
So. Hate Haters. Tell me if the following can be classified as hate speech;
I hate bacon. I hate tofu. I hate hate. I hate haters. I hate hate haters. I don’t like bigots. I hate bigots. I hate insomnia. I hate what cancer can do to people. I hate white people. I hate laziness. I hate war. I hate the devil. I hate evil.
To my way of thinking, the above sentences are all hate speech because they express a hatred of something. And if that is the case, then hate speech isn’t such a bad thing. The expressions of hatred above were, for the most part, expressions of good, decent sentiments. What can be bad about saying you hate cancer?
Hate Haters are making ‘hate’ seem to be solely a bad thing, when in fact it is just an expression of one’s amount of like or dislike of something,
