Is this gonna be like that one Canadian bill that Kermit the Frog was upset about, where it’s the use of slurs as a form of harassment that’s been made a crime?
I guess you have a point in that you can do worse than a homophobic slur and get away with it. It’s like job discrimination laws, you can still discriminate ugly people which is just as bad as discrimination of a protected class.
I don’t have a good answer, if it’s any consolation they can be just as vile or more so long as they don’t use homophobic slurs.
The title is click bait. It’s not homophobia it’s homophobic slurs that are being made a crime.

Okay, but is this still good news or not?
Even so. Seems excessive. Is one not allowed to be a rude ass?
You’re allowed to be a rude ass. You’re not allowed to harass.

A bit off-topic. You actually have a very good point aboutjobs discrimination.
