Time for some new laws thenFree speech does cover hate speech, this has been made very clear by the US Supreme Court.

I have not noticed this trend myself. I have seen more than one post saying Canadian news coverage is descending into this but it hasn't been my experience. I guess I will have to watch more. I'm talking about network news, by the way, not the all news channels. I'm interested in examples if there are any online versions.The media is slowly trying to make people think that if you're even slightly right wing, you're a neo nazi white supremacist. Here in Canada on the news that's all they've been talking about. They never used to say anything about right wing conservatives being neo NAZIS and racists, but now they are. It's fucking insane how biased these news outlets are and how hard they are trying to push this agenda, and the even more sad part is that pretty much everyone over here who is a clueless liberal actually believes it.
Fuck this is just pathetic
The worst part about seeing Antifa labeled as the anti-heroes is knowing their history.One of the most cringey parts of this recent trend is how many people are patting themselves on the back these days for "fighting Nazis".
You aren't storming the beaches at Normandy & facing down German pillbox machine guns you fucking pussies, you are hanging out at a park with your friends, and occasionally harassing people.
You guys?You guys need to put country before party for the greater good.
You guys just did exactly what I was talking about.
@dontsnitch I thought you had a great post. I was right with you until the first amendment line.
@LostSoul are you aware that the first amendment ONLY protects us from government censorship? It has nothing to do with any other type of censorship, corporate, media or social.
She escalated the situation by trying to retrieve her property?Lie. No one hit her. Someone snatched her flag and ran off with it, she wouldn't let go and ran after the person while still holding onto her handful of flag, and tripped over the flag. She then ran after the flag-snatcher to escalate the situation further and then realized she was surrounded by anarchists and starts crying like a poor victim.

People post stuff like this:
It's just moronic. Antifa is the residual of the paramilitary wing of the German Communist party in the 1930s.
So while they may envision themselves as the "Nazi slayers," the truth of the matter is that if they would have succeeded in the first place, there wouldn't have been any successful Nazi movement - real Nazis, not the basement dwellers using Tiki torches. The original Antifa were pretty much pwn3d by the Nazis.
I know what words mean, thank you.And you throw around words with no understanding of what they mean.
The most intellectual discourse you'll ever see. I promise.

In their mind they are fighting this Nazi filming them.If they only knew how damn stupid they looked

The problem with the fighting words clause is that nowadays saying "I will not be removed from these premises just because I'm white" is thought of as fighting words. See Evergreen.Fighting words is an interesting test to the concept of free speech. I'm no lawyer, but I believe that if fighting words are used and you attack someone, the person who issued the fighting words can be held liable for their speech.
But!
The attacker is typically not exonerated of the attack. Maybe I'm wrong but that's my understanding.

Evergreen is a clear abuse of the concept. I disavow.The problem with the fighting words clause is that nowadays saying "I will not be removed from these premises just because I'm white" is thought of as fighting words. See Evergreen.
