When did the term “hate speech” become popular & when did it become illegal
To use hate speech? I realize we live in a PC world now but was the illegality of hate speech ever challenged in court as a loss of freedom of speech? Finally, if hate speech was absolutely legal to use. I mean let it fly, no holds barred, you can say anything to anyone, anytime you wanted. Do you think we’d be better off, worse off or about the same? I’m not convinced we would see much difference. There seems to be a lot of but hurt over the use of words now. Is there no longer any use for the old childhood saying “Sticks & stones may break my bones but words will never harm me”?
