REMINDER - THAT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS HATE SPEECH IN THE U.S. >Supreme Court unanimously reaffirms: There is no ‘hate speech’ exception to the First Amendment
(19 Jun 2017)
[The idea that the government may restrict] speech expressing ideas that offend … strikes at the heart of the First Amendment. Speech that demeans on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, or any other similar ground is hateful; but the proudest boast of our free speech jurisprudence is that we protect the freedom to express “the thought that we hate.”
A law found to discriminate based on viewpoint is an “egregious form of content discrimination,” which is “presumptively unconstitutional.” … A law that can be directed against speech found offensive to some portion of the public can be turned against minority and dissenting views to the detriment of all. The First Amendment does not entrust that power to the government’s benevolence. Instead, our reliance must be on the substantial safeguards of free and open discussion in a democratic society.
(Justice Neil Gorsuch wasn’t on the court when the case was argued, so only eight justices participated.)
This is what fucking shitholes like twitter are doing - "If affixing the commercial label permits the suppression of free any free speech that may lead to political or social "volatility," free speech would be endangered.
JUSTICE THOMAS “I continue to believe that when the government seeks to restrict truthful speech in order to suppress the ideas it conveys, strict scrutiny is appropriate, whether or not the speech in question may be characterized as ‘commercial.’”
Chances are those dumbasses don't even know what she said. All they do is say that she's a bad person because she said something that triggered the jews, and not actually say what triggered the jews & debate whether it's true or not.
