The Effect Of Fake Hate Crimes Over The Last Year
Over the last year with the subjective views of what is considered as hate, hate speech and hate crimes, very much blurred, everything has now become a hate crime. A male employer fires a female employee, hate crime, it must be sexism or a christian pastor turns down a request to marry a gay couple, hate crime, because that pastor is being homophobic. The president wants to remove people who broke the laws and who are in a country without permission, hate crime, because most of those people happen to be from a neighboring country and are of a specific race. Has the world gone fucking mad? The video below takes a look at a few of the top fake hate crimes that have taken place over the last year or two, and provides some context to the the point i'm making.
"I am absolutely opposed to political correctness. You cannot confront hate speech until you've experienced it. You need to hear every side of the issue instead of just one." - Jane Elliott
There is no such thing as actual hate speech, not as long as there is free speech and to hate is not a crime. Its not really nice to hate, but you can't outlaw people's thoughts, if someone wants to hate me based on whatever reason, be it the colour of my skin, or where I'm from, or what I believe, they have the right to do so. What people can't do is take action against you based on that hate, and that's where the lines get very blurry. You have to prove that intent is based on hate, but not just any hate, only specific hate counts and is frowned upon in this regard. Let's use our examples from before, a male employer fires a female employee, that's sexist, but if roles were reversed is it still sexist? A straight persons ridicules someone who is gay, that's a hate crime, if it were the opposite is it also a hate crime? Affirmative action is basically policy based on race to correct historical racism against a minority by using racism. So justified hate is okay, but who is it justified by, Hollywood, late night comedians, the mainstream media? It's completely fine to hate white people right now because 100 years ago some of them own slaves. What about the black people who owned slaves, or Arab slave trade which was 50 years before that and lasted more than a thousand five hundred years, with millions of more slaves and of every race? When is this victim mentality going to end?
It is a constant narrative that is used as propaganda to slowly take away the rights of individuals in favor of the collective. This is what a progression towards a totalitarian society looks like, and I say no fucking thank you!
