    Boiled down, theyre laws against arbritary speech. Sure they might define it, but those definitions always leave enough wiggle room to abuse.

      by that logic, all laws should be abolished because all laws can be used for abuse.

          you know drug laws are easily and constantly abused in America? so you would rather we have dealers selling cocaine to gradeschoolers.

          seems legit.

          there is nothing like a law that can’t be abused, but you huffed too much libertarian glue in the US.

      No… one is a law against speech against a large entity of power that holds control of the nation.

      The other is a law against speech against fellow specific individuals.

      If you are seriously trying to equate “I don’t like (religion)” with “I think (group of people) deserve to die”, then you are on the wrong side of history mate.

      That would be a very bad take and I hope to hell and back again you are smart enough to see the difference between those two.
