you've certainly mentioned some strong examples. However, it's not the same as real violence. think of these two statements, jokes whatever you want to call it. "what do you call a hundred thousand lawyers at the bottom of the ocean? A good start" A joke we've all heard. Now, same joke 'What do you call a hundred thousand Jews at the bottom of the ocean? A good start. Now which one is hate speech? Both? None? Should history be the only basis for whether jokes are permitted or not? What about who delivers it and why? I'm not asking you to really answer me here, but it's worth thinking about. And I think platforms banning language simply will get it wrong. Human mods will get it wrong, computer mods will get it wrong. Again, I'm going to go to the platforms where speech is allowed because of the nuance of humor, of conversation. And especially where personal experience is valid even when it appears biased or hateful. |
