  1. Ah, the "slippery slope" argument. Where do we draw the line? Hate speech and insurrection. This sh!t ain't hard.

  2. So, they're worried about radicalization on smaller platforms? And that's an argument against banning nutjobs from larger platforms? REMINDER: The January 6th insurrection was the result of people organizing on large platforms. Fvck those guys on smaller platforms; that's why we have the FBI.

  3.  @emd3271  Nnnnope. It's a term & meaning defined by those affected, and the greater moral society. But if society becomes less moral/inclusive, yes the definition can change, and in that case, society has much bigger problems.

  5.  @emd3271  It does, indeed, matter. I'm Black. I know what it's like to be discriminated against. As do most of the minorities I know. However, there is a subsection of minorities that identities more with whites than their own. Take a look at the Insurrection at the Capitol; you'll find the random Asian, Black, Latino/Hispanic that are used by those who don't mean them well. So, if you've been discriminated against especially by those in power, you'd understand that hate speech is violence.
