[Serious] Far-Right Extremism Is a Global Problem
RE: Far-Right Extremism Is a Global Problem
(February 10, 2021 at 6:36 pm)SUNGULA Wrote: Inciting violence is Inciting violence. Regardless if someone else chooses to carry out said violence. To deny this is to deny words have any meaning or influence. Not to mention inciting violence can be an immediate risk, And worst still think of all monsters we would need let off the hook merely because they only encouraged other people to do their dirty work. All in all, there must be a curtailing of violent speech and the dehumanizing of vulnerable groups. Free Speech absolutism is reckless nonsense.

I am against allowing inciting violence, where people call for violence, and I've said that all along. I am in favour of allowing incitement of hatred, because they are just expressing their views.

Do you have links so I can see what you mean?
