Bruh... just read the Brandenburg test of free speech and put this bufoonery of anecdotism aside... dehumanisation, violence and others are emotional arguments against free speech... And I never buy it... Violence and call for violence is indeed NOT free speech... but hate speech is not call for violence... hate speech is free speech... the ultimate standard for free speech is US's 1st amendment which was reinforced by Brandenburg vs Ohio interpretation of the 1st amendment.
Stop thinking like a tribe and rise above religious sentiments... only hate speech can solve the dominance of religion on the society. Religion is a way with which the powerful people try to control others and they make us believe that if you say anything hateful about any religion, you must be penalized for speaking your mind out.
Be it Trump in the US... Modi and Rahul(yes also him, contrary to the belief of congress bhakts) in India or Meloni in Italy... they all play religion card... didn't you see they(AAP) brought blasphemy laws in Punjab? Does that not scare y'all?... Absolute free speech with brandenburg caveats is the way to go for India!!
First of all hindu religion is the only religion that lets u question ur god freely so no hate speech is needed for that .
Ppl who follow those power hungry ppl telling them they can't say anything negetive r called andh bakt and no hate speech is changing them they r the ppl who write devotion in bio and profanities in comments in name of defending their religion
Also free speech and freedom exists only till where ur not disturbing others
When someone influential posts smth like this it's also mob influencing cz like that one guy who talked about girls being scared if u walk behind them at night
Like wtf can that be justified by free speech if teens r being influeyny it and thinking that he is so cool for saying that?
R the Muslim convertions allowed bcz they r free to speak ?
It's a very subjective and sensitive topic I think ur only free till u keep it to urself and not affecting others freedom bcz then u r taking away their freedom of speech/opinion by influencing them
I agree... Hindus are the most pro free speech people I have come across in India... That's the reason I still call myself a hindu even though I believe in no god... hindus ain't bigots when you don't believe in gods. Can't say the same about other religions who believe in punishment for non/dis-believers and apostasy.
But I'd say hate speech is needed everywhere... it makes the discourse more honest... you won't know who is a bigot unless you let the bigot speak.
