Isn't excoriating the idea of "hate speech" "hate speech"?
Hate speech is the worst of PC.
"who defines hate.. It's not like it's a scientific category. It's a judgement. The answer is, those whom you least want to have the power to define it. ... If you think that doesn't affect what you get to say, well you've got another thing coming."
Nobody should have the power to define it. Free speech is free speech. Constitutionally protected. With very few exceptions (child pornography for one), no speech should be restricted. As Voltaire said: I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say It. I believe that. Wholeheartedly. I'm sorry if it offends you but you are free to be offended and we can talk about it. Now, personally, there's much I won't say b/c it will offend someone but that's a personal judgment for myself not b/c of any PC word-police. There some I'm offended by (for example, using the F word on here) but I turn the screen or change the channel.

Note: There is apparently a dispute whether Voltaire said this.
No. Well, yes. Yes and no, really. Yes. Whichever keeps me out of the gulag, that's what it was.
