Necessary? You think crying & fighting against your freedom of speech is necessary? Lol what

Well currently their trying to stop hate speech and neo-nazi rallies, which do not count as freedom of speech, since they violate other parts of our 1st Amendment.

Hate speech. Very blur subject for them, if you ask me. Frankly, what is hate speech and what is having an different opinion?

Completely disagree. They fight against white supremacists and neonazis. It's one thing to have free speech, it's another thing when your free speech hurts other people and promote, ultimately, segregation to the point where even a genocide could be "explained" through your beliefs. I've had enough of disgusting people who would recruit other people to harass, hurt and even murder black people, gays, lesbians, immigrants, jews and other minorities. They might use violence to achieve their goals, but we're not all supposed to be Gandhis and Mother Teresas when we are dealing with fascists.

In America, they seem to fight against almost everybody lol
Especially against Trump supporters. They shout "Nazi!" at every god damn human being, if you disagree with them. And what about this freedom of speech? A conservative speaker called Ben Shapiro have lectures about many interesting subjects & everytime when people are protesting against him, the reason is somehow hate speech. Using facts & logic is not hate speech. Facts don't care about your feelings. A bunch of offended snowflakes calling every white guy with different opinions a white supremacist....

When you are in a position of privilege, it's easy to call minorities "snowflakes" with feelings that can be easily hurt. When you suffer the consequences of hate speech, even when hate speech is disguised through "facts", you urge to make the world a better place for you to live, and this means not accepting any made up speech as factual truth (which, quite often, is not). The nazi tried to pass eugenics as the truth, and we all know the terrible consequences this has caused to the world. So, it is important to always pay attention to WHO is talking, and WHAT motivates the discourse which is being spoken/written/etc. And if one's "opinion" makes the world a bad place for another person to live, with all due respect, one can shove his/her opinion up his ass.

These snowflakes i'm referring to comes from a White majority, who are so misguided. And Let's say if in America black minority causes more violent crimes than whites, that's not hate speech. That's a fact (Assuming in this conversation). Many of these "Snowflakes" get triggered when they hear something that actually & factually makes sense. 
Btw, I'm proud white male, who thinks that Antifa's actions have nothing to do with being anti-facist. Am i a white supremacist?

Hate Speech is defined a purposeful hatred, discrimination, or violence in action or speech towards a group of people.

Google Ben Shapiro. They (And quite a few Social Justice idiots) actually think that he's a hate speaker.

Ben Shapiro is a disgrace to my nation. Wanting people to be kind and embrace peace is not a qualifier for being called a snowflake. When you use opinion and call it fact, it is not a fact, it is disinformation. Maybe if you lived in a immigrant community where people are harmed because of the descisions of people of look the same as you, you would understand.

Right, cause I’m sure Finland is full of diversity. I’m interested in the sources of such facts

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
