Social media posts inciting hate and division have “real world consequences” and there is a responsibility to regulate content, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, insisted on Friday, following Meta’s decision to end its fact-checking programme in the United States.
A tolerant society can not tolerate intolerance.
Sure, but there’s an lot of people classifying disagreement as hatred and using that to stamp out the discourse we need to have as a society.
Take positive discrimination. Some see it as corrective action for historical injustices. Some see it as newspeak it for just another form of discrimination and two wrongs don’t make a right. There’s a societal discourse that needs to happen there.
Nobody is preaching hatred, but I expect I’ll get shit for even suggesting there’s a ethical argument against DEI.
It would help if you re-thought your argument from the perspective of a person with the intelligence to understand the difference between discourse and intolerant hate speech. Yes. We are discussing hatred.
No, don’t drag DEI into this. There is no equivalency in this discussion. It just shows your biases to even remotely associate it.
You are proving the parent’s point and you don’t even realize it.
It is intolerant hate speech targeted at people who are specifically targeted by racist, genderist, ableist, and sexist double standards, going against the very pillars of democracy and modern science, to serve a religious and corporatist agenda. What was your point, mfer?
John Cleese, you? Disagreement to millions of peoples existence and rights is hatred right enough, bigot.
Only Moms for Liberty, Gays Against Groomers, Proud Boys, the whole of Project 2025, GenSpect, the richest men in the world and the president of the United States. Yeah right, bigot.
Classic fascist grievance camouflaged as concern trolling. There 👏 Is 👏 Systemic 👏 Discrimination 👏 Period 👏 . May be it is not as good as abolishing inequality for good, but it is a reparation for the institutionalized violence, injustice and deprivation black and or women face. That objection of yours makes you a…wait what’s the word, como se dice en ingles, BIGOT.
Yeah it is the white cishet man who lives in a dystopia, not all the rest. Like those rich white male white supremacist chauvinists and sexual offenders who control the production and the media? You are so fucking hypocritical here someone has to punch the obvious truth into you.
No there is not, you need to shut up, bigot.
