They Want To Use "Hate Speech Laws" To Destroy Freedom Of Speech In America
Submitted by Michael Snyder via The End of The American Dream blog,
Hate speech laws are going in all around the world, and progressive activists in the United States want to use these kinds of laws to destroy free speech in America. You see, the truth is that these hate speech laws that are being implemented all over the planet are not just about preventing speech that promotes violence or genocide against a particular group of people. Instead, these laws are written in such a way that anyone that says something that “offends” or “insults” someone else is guilty of “hate speech”. Even if you never intended to offend anyone and you had no idea that your words were insulting, in some countries you can be detained without bail and sentenced to years in prison for such speech. Today, there are highly restrictive hate speech laws in Canada, in Mexico and in virtually every single European nation. The United States is still an exception, but the truth is that our liberties and freedoms are being eroded every single day, and it is only a matter of time until “hate speech laws” are used to take away our freedom of speech too.
If you don’t think that this could ever happen in America, you should consider what the American Bar Association has to say on the matter. This is the national organization that represents all of our lawyers, judges, etc. So when the ABA speaks on legal matters, it carries a significant amount of weight. The following is how the American Bar Association defines “hate speech”…
Hate speech is speech that offends, threatens, or insults groups, based on race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, or other traits.
Did you catch that?
If I say something that offends or insults you, there is a very good chance that I have just committed “hate speech” according to the ABA.
And support for these kinds of laws is growing. In fact, one survey found that 51 percent of all Democrats now support hate speech laws. It is only a matter of time before progressives start pushing for them in a big way.
Sadly, many of these progressives don’t even understand that our Constitution protects free speech. Just consider what CNN anchor Chris Cuomo recently had to say about this…
Hate speech is not the same thing as free speech, wrote CNN anchor Chris Cuomo on the ultimate forum for public discourse: Twitter.
Amid debate about free speech after a shooting at an anti-Muslim protest in Texas , a user tweeted at Cuomo: “Too many people are trying to say hate speech (doesn’t equal) free speech.”
In response, Cuomo, who has a law degree, said, “It doesn’t. Hate speech is excluded from protection. Don’t just say you love the Constitution … read it.”
No, I think that it is Cuomo that needs to read the Constitution. The fact that he gets to deliver “the news” to millions upon millions of Americans is absolutely frightening.
But without a doubt, we do need to have a conversation about “hate speech” in the United States. If I offend or insult you, that does not mean that I “hate” you. And if I disagree with you, that does not mean that I “hate” you either.
Some of the things that are considered to be “offensive speech” these days are absolutely ridiculous. For example, just consider the following excerpt from a recent article by Paul Joseph Watson…
Here’s an actual list of things that according to the University of Wisconsin are racist:
– Asking someone where they are from or where they were born.
– Telling someone they speak good English.
– Telling someone that you have several black friends.
– Saying that you’re not a racist.
– Complimenting an Asian person by telling them they are very articulate.
– Asking an Asian person for help with science or math.
– Uttering the phrase “There is only one race, the human race.”
– Saying that you think America is a melting pot and that when you look at someone you don’t see race.
– Believing that the most qualified person, regardless of race, should get the job.
– Thinking that every person, regardless of race, can succeed in society if they work hard enough.
– Telling a black person who is being too loud to be quiet.
– Telling an Asian or Latino person who is too quiet to speak up.
– Mistaking a person of color for a staff member when you’re in a store.
– Calling something “gay”.
– Doing an impression of someone’s dialect or accent.
Could you imagine going to prison for any of those “offenses”?
But this is where our country is heading if we don’t stand up for our rights.
Right now, the progressives are on a roll. In the wake of the recent Supreme Court decision on same sex marriage, some progressives are already talking about going after the tax exemptions of churches that oppose it. In fact, the New York Times recently published an article entitled “Now’s the Time To End Tax Exemptions for Religious Institutions“.
But of course the ultimate goal is far more insidious. In the end, they want to shut down all speech that offends them in any way…
The American Unity Fund is a heavily funded new super-PAC looking to blanket the country with LGBT anti-discrimination laws. In effect, those laws aim to wipe out any alternative voice to the LGBT agenda. The effort is being spearheaded by billionaire hedge fund manager Paul Singer and another wealthy hedge fund manager, Tim Gill.
Gill’s operations—the Gill Foundation and Gill Action—have been dedicated to “nonpartisan” gains for the LGBT lobby on the legislative and judicial fronts.
Those that do not believe that this could ever possibly happen in “the land of the free” should consider what has already happened in our neighbor to the north…
Anyone who is offended by something you have said or written can make a complaint to the Human Rights Commissions and Tribunals. In Canada, these organizations police speech, penalizing citizens for any expression deemed in opposition to particular sexual behaviors or protected groups identified under ‘sexual orientation.’ It takes only one complaint against a person to be brought before the tribunal, costing the defendant tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. The commissions have the power to enter private residences and remove all items pertinent to their investigations, checking for hate speech.
Of course the same kind of thing is already happening over in Europe as well. For instance, one Christian pastor in Northern Ireland is being prosecuted for calling Islam “a doctrine spawned in hell”…
An evangelical pastor in Northern Ireland is under fire and will be prosecuted after calling Islam “satanic” and claiming that its doctrine was “spawned in hell” during a controversial 2014 sermon that streamed over the Internet.
Pastor James McConnell, 78, of Whitewell Metropolitan Tabernacle in Belfast, Northern Ireland, made his comments — which included calling Islam “heathen” — in a sermon delivered last May, the BBC reported.
“The Muslim religion was created many hundreds of years after Christ. Muhammad, the Islam Prophet, was born around the year A.D. 570, but Muslims believe that Islam is the true religion,” he preached. “Now, people say there are good Muslims in Britain. That may be so, but I don’t trust them.”
McConnell continued, “Islam’s ideas about God, about humanity, about salvation are vastly different from the teaching of the holy scriptures. Islam is heathen. Islam is satanic. Islam is a doctrine spawned in hell.”
Once such laws are in place in the United States, it won’t be difficult for the government to find you if you are committing “hate speech”. As I have written about repeatedly, the U.S. government already monitors virtually everything that is said and done on the Internet. The following is an excerpt from an article that was recently authored by Micah Lee, Glenn Greenwald, and Morgan Marquis-Boire…
The sheer quantity of communications that XKEYSCORE processes, filters and queries is stunning. Around the world, when a person gets online to do anything — write an email, post to a social network, browse the web or play a video game — there’s a decent chance that the Internet traffic her device sends and receives is getting collected and processed by one of XKEYSCORE’s hundreds of servers scattered across the globe.
In order to make sense of such a massive and steady flow of information, analysts working for the National Security Agency, as well as partner spy agencies, have written thousands of snippets of code to detect different types of traffic and extract useful information from each type, according to documents dating up to 2013. For example, the system automatically detects if a given piece of traffic is an email. If it is, the system tags if it’s from Yahoo or Gmail, if it contains an airline itinerary, if it’s encrypted with PGP, or if the sender’s language is set to Arabic, along with myriad other details.
And as I wrote about yesterday, western governments are already using paid trolls to identify and combat “extremists” on social media websites such as YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.
We are rapidly becoming a “Big Brother” society, and if we don’t stand up for our freedoms and liberties now, it is inevitable that we will eventually lose just about all of them.
Unfortunately, most of the population is absolutely clueless about all of this. In fact, as Mark Dice demonstrated the other day, many Americans don’t even know what we are celebrating on the 4th of July. As a society, we have become extremely “dumbed down”, and we have lost connection to the values and principles that this country was founded upon.

What bullshit!!! The Author forgot to read the second part of the statement that qualifies the first part..
"....based on race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, or other traits."
Hey Tyler... how about putting up some decent articles instead of this "Faux News".....

Weekend tyler is a sadistic fuck.
ZH is a waste of time.
The intellectual level here now seems to be hasbara right wing.
Whats funny is I know people in real life who post here.
You got your flash cards mixed up sissy.
ZH is a waste of time.
Like I said, take a hike and don't come back, o.k.?
"...or other traits". Now, lets list the other traits. 1) Person is tall or short. 2) Person has good or poor taste in clothes. 3) Person has light or dark brown hair, or is bald. 4) Person dislikes speech about sports. 5) Person has hard to understand speech. 6) Person has certain dislikes of certain food or other phobias. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11... and on and on and on. See a problem here?

Hey, then take a hike and don't come back, o.k.?
I can get along with any black guy or woman as long as they dont act like niggers.
I can get along with any guy or woman with a.spanish surname, as long as theyve entered legally and assimilated and have the.desire to become Americans, but I dont like beaners that are here to mooch our way of life.
Orientals seem to me assimilate the easiest.
When I was a kid, I remember a mexican kid was put in our class...didnt speak a lick of english, and there were no special provisions for this situation. He was just thrown in with us. By the end of the year, he was doing just fine and had no problem getting along.
No one was inconvenienced....him, the school, or us.

This is what's so sad. In their efforts to "solve the problems of the disadvantaged," the authorities have totally fucked up the natural ability people in this country had for figuring out how to get along. Now the "disadvantaged" need language assistance, cultural assistance, monetary assistance, housing assistance, childcare assistance, etc., etc. All of which practically guarantees that they will never be able to assimilate properly. Assimilation means figuring out how to work with the culture surrounding you to meet your needs. But they never get the chance to figure that out. They're so busy being told how disadvantaged they are and how they need all this "assistance" that they are completely helpless. Systematic disempowerment! The exact opposite effect of the one claimed. Truly sick.
fuck the NWO and the fucking muslim niggers too
That's because in shit-holes like Mexico,if you called someone a "faggot" (maricon),"nigger" (nigger),or "mother fucker" (chinga su madre),they would kill you,right on the spot..

An armed society is a polite society . . . .
The cocksuckers & muffdivers were told if they play along with Climate Change, and Carbon Credits, the neoLiberals would let them write the Hate Speech legislation out of vindictiveness for the heterosexuals that called them fags when they were growing up.
Close. They will now move to shut up and, eventually, close down churches using gay marriage and hate laws. The Jews are hell bent on shutting down Christianity. They did it in Russia first. Jesus showed defiance to the his fellow Jews and the state. Compliant slaves must not follow him.
The Jews are hell bent on shutting down Christianity.
People that don't believe that this is the gospel truth need to wake up! Want an example? Just watch the MSM around Christmas time and you will see the typical Jewish promulgated outcries against things like Manger scenes on public property while not a word is said about Menorahs being set-up in the same places.
The homosexual marriage issue is another example of something that has been pushed primarily by Jewish interests with the intent to attack Christian beliefs.
"'Within Oregon’s public accommodations law is the basic principle of human decency that every person, regardless of their sexual orientation, has the freedom to fully participate in society,' Avakian stated."
"Unless you're a Christian baker…" -- Annie Ashe Fields
It wasn’t enough that the government violated the religious rights of the Oregon Sweet Cakes’ bakers; it threw in a prohibition of free speech with a gag order. This is a clear violation of free speech and prohibition of the free exercise of religion - both covered by the Bill of Rights. Here’s the story from Chuck Ross at The Daily Caller (07/03/2015)
Oregon Couple Ordered To Pay $135K Because They Didn’t Want To Bake A Cake For Lesbian Wedding
Oregon’s labor commissioner issued a final decree on Thursday forcing the owners of a family bakery in Oregon to pay a lesbian couple $135,000 for refusing to bake a cake for their wedding.
The commissioner, Brad Avakian, ruled that Aaron and Melissa Klein, owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa, must pay the hefty sum to Rachel and Laurel Bowman-Cryer for emotional anguish they claim to have suffered for being refused the cake. …
Oregon’s Equality Act of 2007 prohibits businesses from discriminating based on sexual orientation and other characteristics. …
On Jan. 17, 2013, Aaron Klein was working at the bakery when Rachel Cryer, as she was known then, entered the store and asked for a cake. Klein asked for the name of the bride and groom. When Cryer informed him that there would be two brides, Klein told her that he wouldn’t bake the cake.
“I said, ‘I’m very sorry, I believe I have wasted your time. We do not do cakes for same sex weddings,'” Klein told Cryer, he testified.
In Aug. 2013, the Bowman-Cryers filed a complaint with the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries over the denial. The agency opened an investigation and in Jan. 2014 filed charges against the Kleins for discrimination based on sexual orientation.
The agency initially suggested that the Kleins should pay the couple $75,000 apiece to settle the claim. But the bakery owners declined and pushed the case into arbitration.
When a settlement couldn’t be reached, the case went before Alan McCullough, a Bureau of Labor and Industries judge. McCullough, whose boss is Avakian, recommended forcing the Kleins to pay Rachel Bowman-Cryer $75,000 for emotional distress. Laurel Bowman-Cryer should be awarded $60,000, he recommended.
Avakian had final say-so on Thursday and upheld McCullough’s preliminary recommendation.
Avakian went further in his ruling, slapping the Kleins with a gag order that prohibits them from voicing their opinions about same-sex marriage.
“The Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor and Industries hereby orders [Aaron and Melissa Klein] to cease and desist from publishing, circulating, issuing or displaying, or causing to be published…any communication to the effect that any of the accommodations…will be refused, withheld from or denied to, or that any discrimination be made against, any person on account of their sexual orientation,” Avakian wrote, The Oregonian reported.
The Kleins responded to that gag order on their Facebook page and also suggested that they would appeal the overall decision.
“This effectively strips us of all our first amendment rights,” they wrote. “According to the state of Oregon we neither have freedom of religion or freedom of speech. We will NOT give up this fight, and we will NOT be silenced. We stand for God’s truth, God’s word and freedom for ALL Americans.”…

And this alll happened, except for the final ruling, prior to the U.S. Supreme Court same-sex marriage ruling.
My wife's grandfather was sent to Siberia to die for telling a joke about Stalin when he was drunk in Belarus. He was reported by a fellow school teacher who wanted and got his job as principal at the school. These supposed control's on free speech are nothing more than giving people excuses to do someone else in.
Get reported here in Canada for telling a joke about a gay or a woman or handicapped person at work and they will literally carry you out the door now. And this is before terrorism came around.
The compny line is simple. You are free to say anything you want on any subject. But if someone complains, you are out the door. Know your audience!!
Eye-opening, thanks for sharing.
My wife's grandfather was sent to Siberia to die for telling a joke about Stalin when he was drunk in Belarus. He was reported by a fellow school teacher who wanted and got his job as principal at the school.
The teacher that did that to the grandfather should have been killed - no shit . . . . . the problem is that the "hate speech" laws empower assholes like that and because the rest of the sheep out there are gutless there are no repercussions for those kind of actions. All it takes for those kind of things to go away is a few "tattle tales" paying the ultimate price . . . .
They can only take away your freedom of speech if, and only if, you permit them to.
They can have mine after they take my weapons from my cold dead hands.
Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission.
If the tyranny don't fit, you don't have to submit.
Sorry K.
The reed bends with the wind,
The Oak does not.
Neither submits, but one dies.
some sort of parable I heard once and don't feel the need to document.
There is a time for bending and a time for standing. It is obvious that bending to tyranny is compromise with an enemy. Bend today and kneel tomorrow.
The aspects of America's growing police state do not suggest bending; they suggest first, standing, and then, fighting.
So it's racist to call black people thieves, and then racist to call them workers? This is what's called a double-bind, you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. Normally this can lead to schizophrenia in authoritative relationships, so no wonder liberal cultural self-hate is leading to the madness we see today.
Yes, the crazy is being handed down from on high. I used to think that Woody Allen and Dr. Fleischman, on Northern Exposure, were just acting.
the fuse is lit.......
I swear to God, "progressives" have no shame, no sense of hypocrisy and no brains whatsoever.
So lemme get this straight, "the left" can burn & stomp on the stars & stripes one year and the very next year turn and hold it out as some paragon of virtue in the burning & stomping of the stars & bars, without any conflict in their minds whatsoever?
They can, six long years ago, rant & rave about a "new messiah"...the "One" (thats the skinny black dude from Chicago of all fucking places) coming forth onto the world stage to part the seas, redistribute wealth and stop the killing of "brown people" AND when he doesn't part the seas, allows the rich to get richer and kills more "brown people" than have ever been killed before...they continue to support his sorry ass over a rainbow flag, which had its "genesis" in what?
You try to tell these mindless fucking freaks of nature that, no, bailing out GM and the banks is a bad Keynesian idea. That instituting moar government bureacracies is not how freedom works, that using the Treasury as your own private piggy bank will only alienate me and make me hate you even more (if thats possible)...and they do it anyways.
Motherfuckers, I could slaughter every one of you special snowflakes and not lose a wink of sleep.
Thats what you've done.
You get today's gold star ... they're the same on every (in)continent ... and the media know it makes great click-bait for the crowd, so they always amp it and give it an airing, no matter how stupid. They always seem attracted to me for some reason, until they discover I actually detest every boneheaded whine they are saying, which comes as a shock and this look of betrayal on their face. Which only makes me laugh at what jerks they are, as you can see their prejudices in full bloom, and that you are the wrong sort of human being altogether, if you don;t agree with them, and that they are alone superior beings. :D
I love the look they give, pure-bred hypocrite to the core, in that moment they are the very personification and quintessence of the prejudice they claim to have rejected and risen above.
Why, if it weren't for their double standard, they'd have no standards at all.

I guess the latest "progressive" example is George Takei (Sulu from Star Trek)...he got his thong string all sucked up his into ass over gay marriage and blurted out something about Clarence Thomas not being an "authentic black" or some shit...lol.
"He is a clown in black face sitting on the Supreme Court. He gets me that angry. He doesn’t belong there. And for him to say, slaves have dignity. I mean, doesn’t he know that slaves were in chains? That they were whipped on the back. If he saw the movie 12 Years a Slave, you know, they were raped. And he says they had dignity as slaves or – My parents lost everything that they worked for, in the middle of their lives, in their 30s. His business, my father’s business, our home, our freedom and we’re supposed to call that dignified? Marched out of our homes at gun point. I mean, this man does not belong on the Supreme Court. He is an embarrassment. He is a disgrace to America."
All you need to know about dignity & slavery can be learned from Hollywood movies, sometimes I'm just left speechless, the only one wearing shit on his face in this case is Sulu.
All human beings are prejudiced nwewn. It's the ones who say they're not who are the most prejudiced and conceited of all. And it doesn't take much to get them to demonstrate that.
There's what we say we are, and there's what we are. But the only way to be what we are and to know ourselves, is to drop the ideals and stop trying to be something else all the time. Stop conforming to the ideals and what we are emerges. And why on earth would any one try to be something other than what they are?
But there is always this ideological GUILT, this excuse motive, that we HAVE to become different, better, perfecting ourselves, to progressive heaven, to become the superman or woman. And in the process it only creates the shit they project on to everyone else, as being inferior, not acceptable, they must be changed, educated, cajoled, coerced, brow-beaten, forced to conform and become super dumb too, just like them! :D
It is impossible to come to grips with the life that is you, as it really is, if you can't even be honest about yourself, and with yourself, and realize that everyone is playing this cultural game of avoiding what they really are, and what they really so in fact think, and how they really act and react, and simply don't want to know themselves as they are, simply to maintain some aspirational illusion or progression to perfection, that doesn't exist, or even help.
I have no trouble 'bettering' myself via just developing naturally, being myself, and doing what I do. I can see that you're the person that you really are nwewn. I like you like that. I could not respect you any other way. ;-)
I always seem to like people who are exactly who they really are. There's simply no possibility of being prejudiced or being disappointed with them. If I had a problem with them being themselves, it would clearly be me who had the problem.
So I'm never going to judge someone like you nwewn, I'll never want to tell you what to do, I'll never look up or down on you, or your views. I'll never defer to you either, but I could learn something. I also can't help taking the piss out of progressive hypocrite idealists and point out what they're doing, primarily to themselves, and those who have to be around them. Many progressives seem to want to become buddhists or something, to become perfected and even more enlighten, and they clearly deserve it - obviously!
But they do that because they are so insecure and can't come to direct terms with the being they already are, when they aren't bullshitting themselves, and bullshitting everyone else around them, and making a great flourish of conforming to the highest progressive ideals. In other words, when they've never once been entirely at peace with who and what they really are.
Progressive-ism is the religion of our times, and all religion is about becoming a saint, a better human, a better mind, a progression to a better human consciousness.
BZZZZT!
Nope. It always comes to naught, we fall back to what we actually are. What we are simply won't and can't play along, so we end up in denial about ourselves, as we are. But what we are always insists on interrupting our denial, and shows us what we actually are.
And the attempt to escape themselves and what they are, as they actually are, is how people end up radical progressives, who are always, with no exceptions at all, and none even possible, innately complete fakes.
Because human beings are in fact not progressive at all. We are what we are, and we remain what we are. Living is the only development we will ever need, and that it is what naturally changes us into what we further are. It is the life that develops. And not some stupid progressive idealism that develops us.
I can't think of anything more totally stupid and pointless than to try to progress away from what our life will entirely naturally turn us further into, with no effort required, but to be exactly the thing we are - which we have never known. So how the hell could we possibly know in advance that it's worth rejecting what we are, and seek to change into something else?
Is that not the ultimate in prejudice, and the very absence of all self-respect? :D
The stupidity of people doing that just makes you weep.
Me Like! Hope you had a Happy 4th Mewn!
Segregation ... penetration ... in the nation ........ and dance!

The camel should never have been allowed to stick its nose under the tent. Rotten marxist scum. Totalitarians are everywhere. Most of them think they are doing good, somehow, since their mental captors have them extremely well programmed not to ever think themselves outside of the box they've been given.
This PC speech crap is a form of cultural marxism that ends in totalitarianism. Total freedom for the 'in' crowd, and total control over the rest of the population.
And we sit here on the 4th...to think that my relatives fought and died for this nation, and now we're just a bunch of wimped out pussies. Breaks my heart. Truly. No one could ever deny the importance and sacredness of the US Constitution - every single word of it.
Unless they fought in the Revolutionary War or the War of 1812, they weren't fighting for the country, they were fighting for the totalitarian oligarchy that we're now living under.
Does anyone know where I can download this XKEYSCORE thingy. It looks like fun.
It ain't the blacks or the Italians or the homos or the Injuns that are having folks jailed for voicing their political opinions.
It is the Khazars ("jews") currently fucking us that want us not to spread the evil knowledge to the sheep that think economies just crash, that wars just happen, that everything is destiny and not a foul and despicable plot that has been going on for over a hundred years in this country.
They jailed lawyers defending hate speech offenders (holohoax deniers) in Germany twice that I know of. They extradited one old coot from Canada just to jail him over in Germany as an example to others that might try to utter these unpleasantries.
There's the jist. Don't try to call out the jews, not in Europe or Canada.
Coming soon to a panopticon near you.
Too bad that "conservatives", right along with liberals, have a long history of ignoring the Constitution when it's convenient for them; now there's precedent for almost any violation of the Constitution. When these laws are passed, and you're looking for someone to blame, look in the mirror.
Words are far more dangerous and have killed far more people than bullets.
"Free speech" without responsibility for what is said is a mockery of freedom.
Media monopoly is not free speech. All of this hate speech legislation is on behalf of the media monopoly. What the media wants is control of speech and they want to be the controller. And they actually manage speech for the rulers, in this case the banking cartel. It worked the same way for Stalin; it was called Pravda. Pravda was controlled speech.
Graphic: How Just 6 Corps Own 90% of The Media
By Anthony Gucciardi - August 1, 2013
We have known for quite some time now that the flow of information is tightly controlled within the mainstream media system, but one graphic really highlights just how tightly controlled the information we are delivered truly is — and how a total of only 6 corporations run the show.
From Time Warner (CNN, HBO, TIME) to GE (NBC, Comcast), a whopping 6 corporations control 90% of the mainstream media within the United States. And what’s more, the amount of revenues from the tightly controlled mainstream media machine are enough to beat out Finland’s entire GDP, buy every NFL team 12 times, and fund the government bailout of General Motors 5 times. Checkout the powerful graphic below and share it with others to inform them as to how controlled the media really is:

JR in regards to Stalin, who was married to a Jewess:
Stalin's letter "Anti-Semitism: Reply to an Inquiry of the Jewish News Agency in the United States" dated January 12, 1931 indicated his official position:
In answer to your inquiry: National and racial chauvinism is a vestige of the misanthropic customs characteristic of the period of cannibalism. Anti-semitism, as an extreme form of racial chauvinism, is the most dangerous vestige of cannibalism.
Anti-semitism is of advantage to the exploiters as a lightning conductor that deflects the blows aimed by the working people at capitalism. Anti-semitism is dangerous for the working people as being a false path that leads them off the right road and lands them in the jungle. Hence Communists, as consistent internationalists, cannot but be irreconcilable, sworn enemies of anti-semitism.
In the U.S.S.R. anti-semitism is punishable with the utmost severity of the law as a phenomenon deeply hostile to the Soviet system. Under U.S.S.R. law active anti-semites are liable to the death penalty.
In 1936 Pravda, the party's newspaper and main propaganda organ, printed a beneficial explanation of the vile nature of anti-Semitism. It stated that "national and racial chauvinism is a survival of the barbarous practices of the cannibalistic period... it served the exploiters... to protect capitalism from the attack of the working class; anti-Semitism, a phenomenon profoundly hostile to the Soviet Union, is repressed in the USSR."
Yeah, well, the "free speech" that has killed more people is that speech as written word,
found in philosophical books written by Hitler, Marx, and Saul Alinsky. Yet, you would probably
be okay with the publishing of THOSE books, now wouldn't you?
You forgot Mohammed... yeah, I said it.
That may well be so in your warped delusional state but that won't stop me from saying exactly what I fucking want cuntface and when I want.
So you can go fuck yourself or starters
Here are some words;
You are a numbskull and should not be allowed to procreate for the sake of the human race... and the 1st Amendment.
"Free speech" without responsibility for what is said is a mockery of freedom.
WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! The definition of "free speech" is the ability to say WHAT EVER YOU WANT TO SAY without repercussions. The 1st Amendment of the US Constitution is the 1st Amendment for a reason - it is to protect people when they say things that others don't like/don't want to hear. There are separate laws that cover "speech" issues like inciting riots and inciting violence so don't even go there when it comes to the 1st Amendment. Other than those narrow areas true "free speech" allows a person to say anything else without the fear of arrest or imprisonment.
Responsibility to whom, exactly? Who are these lords of the universe that get to play God and decide if what I say is acceptable? You are saying that your ideology is the acceptable one, and that anyone who speaks against that is fit for punishment. That is tyranny. Count me OUT!
Urine idiot. Words from the mouths of fascists kill people.
USA the land of state executed cultural and spiritual genocide...
while there is no doubt there are very real racial issues, it's simple morality, those basic inalienable human rights they are seeking and succeeding in their quest destroy, to wipe out every last vestige of what make us strong, of what gives us all the will to pursue life, liberty and happiness. freedom of speech, freedom of association, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, individuality, spirituality, family, community and self governance.
all of these things keep us from becoming no more than mindless slaves to the system, to the established order, to the neo- feudalistic new world order that is right now taking root in our own backyard. hate your neighbor? fine, that's just a part of being human, we will never "all get along" that's just the way it is.
but don't ever hate who they tell you to hate, don't let that propaganda spewing, MSM state run oracle of social engineering trap you into doing there dirty work for them...
because that...that is exactly what they want, what they need and that is exactly how we all become slaves.
as far as hate speech goes, it is truly an Orwellian concept essentially thoughtcrime here in the real world and nothing more than yet another mechanism of control or as the man himself put it...
“Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words left in which to express it.”
I tell you honestly on this 4th of july there is no reason to celebrate and all I can see is that boot stomping that human face...forever.
"Here’s an actual list of things that according to the University of Wisconsin are racist:
– Complimenting an Asian person by telling them they are very articulate"
So the rule is you cannot compliment an Asian for being articulate?
Sounds kinda racist. If I was Asian and exceptionally articulate I would sue.
Sum Ting Wong?
Sounds kinda racist. If I was Asian and exceptionally articulate I would sue.
Especially if your name was "Fa Que" . . . .
Biden: "We have a new candidate who is clean and articulate."
Clinton to Kennedy: "You know, Ted, 20 years ago that boy would be serving us coffee."
Sharpton: "Waddya mean 'clean and articulate'? I takes me a shower"
Biden: "You can't run a 7-11 unless you have a slight Indian accent"
Thatcher put these sorts of laws in place in the UK in the form of the Public Order Act 1986. The most broad provision of which is:
5 Harassment, alarm or distress.
(1)A person is guilty of an offence if he—
(a)uses threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, or disorderly behaviour, or
(b)displays any writing, sign or other visible representation which is threatening, abusive or insulting,
within the hearing or sight of a person likely to be caused harassment, alarm or distress thereby.
(2)An offence under this section may be committed in a public or a private place, except that no offence is committed where the words or behaviour are used, or the writing, sign or other visible representation is displayed, by a person inside a dwelling and the other person is also inside that or another dwelling.
(3)It is a defence for the accused to prove—
(a)that he had no reason to believe that there was any person within hearing or sight who was likely to be caused harassment, alarm or distress, or
(b)that he was inside a dwelling and had no reason to believe that the words or behaviour used, or the writing, sign or other visible representation displayed, would be heard or seen by a person outside that or any other dwelling, or
(c)that his conduct was reasonable.
Personally, to me, this sounds like a load of bullshit.
Also, I might add, this apparently could be applied to internet postings as well, the language is vague enough to essentially empower the government to do whatever it likes. Look at, for example, Giuliani in New York digging up an 1890s "Cabaret license" law to shut down a large number of NYC nightclubs as soon as he took the Mayor's office. You word things vaguely like this or the Cabaret law and well, the doors to tyranny are opened, I can envision ways to charge countless people under the law I pasted above for what most people would, using common sense, find to be benign and non-criminal voicing of opinions or legitimate political protest.
They had a very dificult time find a place to bury her. They couldn't find a cemetary with room for a dance floor that big.
This is the most important and poignant article of the year (aside from the Financial articles here).
I say this because of the trajectory that our nation is on, which is one of a fascist state
and the destruction of the Bill of Rights and our Constitution.
Soon, just quoting from the Bill of Rights and our Constitution will be considered hate speech.
And the culprits and masterminds of this coup, include all mainstream media (even FOX News) and especially the liberal colleges
and Universities.
If we refuse to stand up for our Rights now, they WILL be taken away, one by one.
And by stand up, I'm talking about getting out into the streets and demanding ACTION!
We must remove our so-called leaders by demanding that they be IMPEACHED, today!
When have we seen reporters relegated to staying within a roped in area while following a Presidential Candidate?
THIS TYRANNY MUST END.
When you elect a black agitator for president, this is the kind of society you get. You elected it. Live with it.
You are not referring by any chance to that fucking lying corrupt faggot shit stabbing Kenyan monkey, that the fucking demented moronic shit for brains cocksuckers called democrats voted for,
Are you ?
Well I don't think he was talking about Mitt Romney.
you mean the member of the mormon cult. that mitt?
colleges are literally the breeding points for this shit now.
its literally a social justice warrior training facility.....they are hell bent about not being triggered and are UBER sensitive. It is fucking sickening...
I could not have put it any better myself.
Kids as early as grade school are molded into "Social Justice Warriors" if they are not actively parented at home.
Explain to kids that TEACHERS ARE GOV'T EMPLOYEES and what they are teaching is therefore suspect.
That, Dipshit, is a micro-aggression and I'm telling!!!! ;-)

{is it offensive to call you 'Dipshit'?}
It will soon be against the law in america to say the words: nigger, kike, jew, palestine, hitler....
No dude. Hitler is part of their narrative. One may be forced to say Hitler everyday, or there will be a 24x7 holohoax channel on cable to keep that bs narrative alive.
GENEVA, April 2 (Reuters) - United Nations experts on Thursday called on Russia to repeal laws limiting free speech and targeting homosexuals and urged action to prevent torture, racist crimes and a wide range of other human rights abuses.
The 18-member Human Rights Committee also told Moscow it should move to prevent violation of U.N. pacts that it has signed by insurgents in eastern Ukraine and by the authorities in the Chechen republic, and in Crimea.
The calls came in a report that indirectly drew a picture of a country rife with persecution of critics of the government and of groups that do not conform to its political and social views, and that gave no recourse to a proper judicial system.
The 12-page document largely referred to reports of abuses and violent activities, including by what it called "ultra-nationalist, racist and neo-Nazi groups", and of torture of suspects by police.
The Committee, which monitors signatory countries' performance under the 1976 International Convention on Civil and Political Rights, issued the report after examining Russia's record and hearing comments by Moscow's delegation.
During discussion in the Committee late last month, Russian officials denied the truth of the many of the reports cited by the body's members, who include non-government lawyers and academics from developing and developed countries.
The U.N. report said laws signed by President Vladimir Putin - including on limiting Internet activity and restricting links between Russian non-governmental organisations and foreign groups - "appear" to violate the U.N. Convention.
The Committee said it was concerned by reports of hate speech and violence against gays and called on Moscow to "clearly and explicitly state that it does not tolerate any form of social stigmatization of homosexuals".
It also noted "under-representation of women in decision- making positions" in political life and urged Russia to fight "patriarchal attitudes" on the role of women and men in the family and society at large. (Editing by Stephanie Nebehay and Louise Ireland)
interesting..so russias version of totaltarinism is far right wing political and societal values that are normal
americas version is totally pussified left wingers in every sense of the word.
this is amazing and wrong.
It is the "new normal", since SCOTUS makes up laws on the basis of feelings, then the old behaviours are now abnormal.
I always get a kick out of watching the effete elites in DC, the EU, and UN mobilizing their self-righteousness against countries they don't like while they give the gay mudering, Christian slaughtering, women smashing, sex slave trafficking muslims in MENA a free pass.
KSA. The best friend of administrations for decades. 'Nuf said.
The terrorist USSA can go FUCK THEMSELVES !!! Trying to control everything around the world, on behalf of their jew masters.
The Jew masters are behind pushing hate laws. The last thing they want is for their big scam to unravel.
The Khazarian Kocksucking Klan. The true KKK. Biggest mass murderers in human history and the world is wakkking up to that.
Trying to control everything around the world, on behalf of their jew masters.
While people don't want to believe this statement there is much truth behind it. I would just change "Jew" to "Zionists" as they are the group primarily behind this kind of bullshit. It's all part of their "big plan" . . . .
Yea... the Jews run everything, that is why anti semetics is outlawed but Islamophobia is tolerated in Europe eh?
Can be said zero hedge must need to run these articles every so often to see what commenters. Should be tagged for extremist views. Just because you are paranoid does t mean they aren't out to get you
Wish I had your address to mail you a copy of my insurance liability policy. Eash year they send it to me it gets thicker and thicker. So the last one, instead of just mailing the check as usual, I sat down and read it. The exclusions section grows every year. Here's one: "We will no longer be responsible to represent you in court if you as an employer say something to an employee which hurts their feelings." I shit you not. REPEAT: This is for real. I shit you not. It's a REAL and CURRENT liability policy. I am no longer represented in court (my legal rep paid for by my insurance policy) if an employee sues me for "hurting their feelings". So how do you hurt their feelings? You tell me. IT'S UP TO THE EMPLOYEE TO DECIDE WHAT HURTS THEIR FEELINGS, NOT ME. Either way, in civil court it costs you about $50,000 to find out.
P.S.: ANYONE HERE STILL THINK ZH is being EXTREMIST?
That is the actual lanuage?!?! Holy shit.
that is one reason i quit employing people. i went to the "you're fucking useless" school of management. my employees noticed that a few days before i had to let someone go i would mutter, "you're fucking useless" under my breath. i would never get an insurance policy today.
USSA will be fine once we dump hoochie-mama, her racist albino clan
When you read the list, you realize that if you say anything at all, you are guilty. Just the way they like it. I wonder if pushing the faculty off a cliff is "racist"?
That is not racist but some would call it 'justifiable homicide'.
Your 1st Amendment REQUIRES your 2nd Amendmenttm
Fact.
Hate Speech Laws -->> ZIO USSA Perp Protection Laws
Where even alluding to their crimes makes you the criminal.
How cool is that?
If you want to know who controls you, first find out who you're not allowed to criticize.
Hear Hear!!!!
The girls took over ZH.

Gays and their wedding cakes. Can you even imagine attempting to force a person to make you food? That is seriously the dumbest thing I've ever heard of, unless of course you enjoy eating cake batter stirred vigorously by an irate stranger's cock.
The fact is these college age, delicate, PC flowers don't have the right to live their lives without ever being offended. Someone should really tell them.
And as far as the government's assault on our Freedom Of Speech, I'm ignoring it. People with balls will always say what they mean, and mean what they say. And people with no balls aren't worth listening to anyway.
You gonna use the "N-Word" at work tomorrow? F’it?
"And as far as the government's assault on our Freedom Of Speech, I'm ignoring it."
I agree with your point, but ignoring this now, we know where it leads. In Stalin's USSR, 20 million killed, largely just for saying things that pissed their neighbors off enough to hand them to the authorities. Mao's Great Leap Forward, 30 million, largely the intellectuals, i.e. those who expressed ideas, nothing more.
If history rhymes, you may not have the luxury of ignoring this assault.
I've seriously about had it. If our fuckhead politicians don't like their approval ratings now, just wait. If they don't like the things going on in society now, just wait.
Can anyone reading this site identify one instance of where proponents of these laws have supported their interpretation in a way that protects the interests or constitutional rights of heterosexual males of white European descent?
That alone should make clear the identity of and the true motives of those who propose them.
Let’s work on outlawing fireworks.
Fireworks represent the end of White on White crime and the beginning of genocide for the natives.
Every skyrocket represents a villager U.S. Military has torched.
You have used 5 words categorized as hate speech.

Please report to the nearest re-training center. Also note: you are fined $135,000. Please remit to the proper court authority or join the military.
We can sit here and argue the merits all day long. It matters not. The path has been chosen and the end game cannot be mathematically avoided. There will be civil war in the US.
Or genoicde.
Or abject apathy.
Yea,,, I can imagine a brigade of obese slugs in Walmart electric carts making a charge using the ultimate weapon... their iThingy's.
It will be the shortest civil war in history. Over before it starts...
make it hate speech when a stupid leftist opens his mouth. It's all to protect the democrat voters, no one else. Just look how no one but white males get charged with hate crimes. Time to reverse these laws against the socialists who made them. Charge the demorat party with hate speech and hate crimes.
As a progressive moderate, I can assure you that I do not favor ANY restrictions of any freedoms specifically mentioned in the constitution. This includes but is not limited to freedom of speech, right to bear arms, the right to be secure in personal effects (privacy) and due process.
Progress is not made by restricting peoples freedoms. Don't buy into the LEFT/RIGHT distraction. That is the game they want us to play. The real enemy are those who wish to restrict your freedoms under the false pretense of security. Both the Left and Right are guilty of systematically dismantling the constitution. It's about LIBERTY vs TYRANNY.
You have us confused with the 1% They would be more than happy to restrict the freedoms of the masses... makes them easier to control.
Jt:
Methinks you have to turn in your progressive card with sentiments such as you describe..
And it is probably the 0.01% or the 0.001% you should point to.

What is the difference between a Progressive and a Marxist?
The Marxist believes in the revolution, the Progressive believes in the progress of society to Marxism...
Radical leftists have America, right by the short hairs.
RIP America.
Long live Amerika!
Sieg Heil...
You've confused the teams. The Team in Power is the BOLSHEVIKS, the National Socialists don't fit the current state of the USSA.
Neo-Nazis ask questions like this:
What would life be like in an all-White America?
Keep deluding yourself if it makes you feel better. They are BOTH nuts from the same burr.
From the trends noted I suggest that merely posting this would be PROHIBITED by LAW in the not too distant future:

Somalian In Sweden Rapes 12 Year-Old, Gets Community Service
And as far as what all these NON-EUROPEANS are doing in EUROPE, well I think this Swedish woman singer really puts it all in perspective, it is interspersed with news footage of riots in Sweden. I have to confess to getting a bit teary watching this:
Ode To A Dying People
And infuriated watching this Jewess:

Prepsite.org: A storm is coming http://www.prepsite.org/2015/07/a-storm-is-coming.html?spref=tw
there is a difference between a racist and an asshole. as a first generation american of japanese heritage i have been asked where i am from, complimented on my use of the english language and happen to be very good with numbers. i consider anyone who approaches me with any of these topics as an asshole, especially the compliment for my ude of the english language because it is not something one would bring up with anyone else in their circle of aquaintances. it is based soley on the assumption that i am new to the country.
when people ask where i am from i tell them i am from the town i grew up in in the usa. my favorite form of this question is "what are you?" to which i answer american. that usually shuts them up. if they follow up with something in the form of "no, i mean, what are you?" i respond, "not an asshole".
when someone compliments me on my use of the english language i ask them how long their family has been in the usa with a follow up question asking them why they can't speak proper english after several generations of american heritage.
when they assume i am good with numbers i ask them why they didn't study harder so they could be good at math also.
are these prison worthy queries? absolutely not. why do i not like these conversation starters? i don't like them because they are not the approach that the person in question has ever been subjected to.
these people are just plain old assholes and they have every right to be assholes because i can be an asshole , too, and i want that right protected.
It's called life.
I like your distinction. Let people sort this out ourselves. When someone is a prick, let others tell them they are being a prick. There need be no third party (law) involved. We are remarkably adaptable when we are left alone to adapt!
You may be good at the English language... but your grammer and punctuation are horrible.
Am I a racist or just an asshole?
the capitalization issue is an ode to ee cummings. punctuation is another story but even pro writers need a copy editor so i could give a shit.
i 'll leave the answer to your question up to you. what are you? lol
ps there is another "a" in grammar.
How many of you get kicked off line several times each day. I read somewhere that it is an active x program developed by the us government which uses it for this specific purpose. I imagine one of these times I won't be able to get back on line.
But the article is spot on... that is why I keep saying that we are two scotus appointments away from tyranny and sites like this will be outlawed.
The author is correct that people are clueless, and these hate speech laws are a bad idea. Where he is sinplisticaly trying to fool you is just blaming only "progressives".
They will never silence those with imaginations.
Right side brain people.
Good luck.
I fucking hate everyone! Prosecute that you prograssive fucks!
Prograssive = stoned progressives?
The proof of the pernicious nature of "hate speech" is that it is selectively enforced. When Muslims have a rally in NYC calling for the overthrow of the US Constitution it is protected but defense of our Constitution is "threatening." I guess it is... to those who seek our enslavement.
Will they stop allowing the muslims and new black panthers on the Manhattan street corners from hating on whitey and calling for his blood to flow through the streets?
