That said, in terms of your opinions and your right to say them, that is pretty much protected in the US where in Europe is not.
There are very constrained edge cases where the US is more permissive than Europe (holocaust denial being a big one), but on the whole it's ridiculous to say there are no protections for free speech or freedom of expression in Europe.

There is no 1st amendment like protections. That is what I meant.  There is nothing to stop any new legislation being passed tomorrow. Which is why we have hate speech in Europe. There is nothing to protect us from not having hate speech laws.

...

you are using Europe very liberally here, because Sweden does have both freedom of the press and speech constitutionally protected, meaning that it would take two parliamentary sessions with an election inbetween to change them

Yeah. I will choose my words carefully here as I'm just going to get the same argument back. What I would have said is that Sweden has 'hate speech' laws which makes the protection of free speech misleading. It is free speech with pretty big concessions. Of course as we have already been through, the counter argument would just be, there is a line somewhere even in America.

I'm just going to say that concessions to 'free speech' like this are a pretty big obstacle in the way of people being able to freely express an opinion. I mean disrespecting someone's faith is classed as hate speech in Sweden. Seems like a pretty big concession to me..

i'm not sure why you think disrespecting someones faith is hate speech here? You aren't allowed to hound/instigate against a group of people (like muslims, immigrants, swedish), but disrespect is allowed as long as it doesn't cross that magical line.

i do prefer the kkona speech laws, but the Swedish laws aren't as restrictive as one may think. you can't legally call a black man a distinguished black fellow, but you are still allowed to sing along to rap music  :doge

Well, I basically read how it was defined.

Quote
Sweden prohibits hate speech, and defines it as publicly making statements that threaten or express disrespect for an ethnic group or similar group regarding their race, skin colour, national or ethnic origin, faith or sexual orientation.

That 'magical line' tends to be part of the problem. Who decides where the line is, exactly? I find when it comes to hate speech laws there is a problem with interpretation. That is certaainly the case in the UK, where I am from, and I imagine it is the same in Sweden. Hate is subjective after all.

A quick search bears this out.

That site actually links to infowars so perhaps not a good example

but seriously at theboresite forums they have this section:

This is a place for LEOs to hang out and for non-LEOs to interact with LEOs politely. It IS NOT a place to bash cops, or to discuss political or administrative issues that concern the police & policing.

I resolve, in an outreach and to set a good example of how ResetERA.com should reject its never ceasing bigotry, misogyny, racism, and pro-Trump agenda, to never again call attention to their crimes. As they would want, to protect the names of those they have silenced in the name of #trusttheprogress.

I ask that the rest of you join me. So that we can devote all our efforts to exposing rampant sarcasm of NeoGAF.com and/or The Bire's corrupt mods.

Thus begins a new era, and by era, I mean The Bire. In which we accept that we were the problem all along. That it was our actions that led to GamerGate and the rise of the Serbian Threat.

There's something wrong with the post count or page count.
The first post on page 1000 should be post number 60,000

Edit:  Never mind, it's correct. Post #60,000 will be the first post on page 1,001.

Though I wouldn't phrase it as such, this is something that's been on my mind lately as a nominal supporter of trans rights. As much as I hate to admit it, dating a trans woman is not something I'm comfortable with, and I feel like that's something of a failure on my part.



I'm close to a third of the way through this video right now with this dilemma at the back of my mind.

Nothing wrong with that. At the end of the day all you can be reasonably expected to do is treat other people with respect in regards to their preferred name and pronouns, if at the end of the day you can't see a trans person as anything other than their birth sex then that's perfectly fine, just don't be a raging asshole about it.

Probably less than 1% of the population actually accepts trans people (talking about acceptance here not tolerance). Even as someone who meets the diagnostic criteria for GID myself, I still don't view transgender identities as valid barring a few exceptions.

14 posts, clearly inflammatory post meant to derail thread, with "but as a trans person myself" at the end.
