It is easier to just silence people by labeling them, then to ask them to justify their logical axioms.
Kind of like when your arguments are dismissed due to being called a LARPer, or being told that all the womyn here just need to calm down, while having all our valid points ignored. I guess it's convenient to pull that one out when you're clearly losing the argument.
The hypocrisy here is laughable.
I don't know why you think I'm endorsing that behavior. I never said I was. You're making a lot of assumptions here.
No I never thought you endorsed this behavior, just thought your point was defunct as this behavior is endemic. It goes by many names, and I just see a lot of bias against the use of the word hatespeech, and I have to wonder if the focus on it is because it serves a politcal agenda.
Free speech applies to everyone, including those that think something is hate speech.
