Silencing the trolls: Twitter considers ‘hate speech’ censorship
June 28, 2012 20:59
Is Twitter allowing too much freedom? What helped move revolutions along in the Middle East, has a flip side of cyberbullying and abuse, especially of those in the spotlight. Now Twitter is taking its first step towards censorship.
so called hate speech laws and internet censorship will grow by leaps and bounds.it is un policy.the real reason is to eradicate free speech,as more people are waking up to historical facts and the banker controlled mainstream media lies.
When you say e.g. in a public forum that blacks in Africa have an average IQ of about 75 and that this mostly due to their genes that would probably fall under hate speech or spreading racial hatred even though there is considerable evidence that this is true. Or that German Turks born and educated in Germany have an average IQ of 86 as opposed to Germans whose IQ is about 100.Blah blah blah!! Asians have an higher IQ then white people, Black people are more dominant in sports, entertainment and in the bedroom(bigger Di**s) Than white people but who the f**k cares. I'll Show you my proof if you show me yours (westpr)
I'm opposed to true hate speech. But I speak in favour of being allowed to tell the truth and equal opportunity for all groups of society to express what they think is true in a non-offensive way.

On the other hand so-called minorities can say about the evil whitey whatever they want without fearing sanctions. Governments litterally encourage such behaviour.
Co nsider for example this quote by a member of a German minority group who wrote in an article published in a German newspaper: "I'd like to call to everyone's attention how our TV-fees are being wasted on this lispling, stammering and wincing caricature of a human being who was allowed on a sunday evening to do what he does best: appeal to the baser human instincts. I'm talking about Thilo Sarazin."
Thi lo Sarazin is one of the very few German politicians who is opposed to immigration and muslimization. He has some problems finding words sometimes and his facial expressions look weird from time to time. He's a banker. He presents his arguments which are mostly based on statistics in a cold and factual non-inflammatory manner. Yet he faces such offensive speech published in a respected German newspaper.
Gr anted, there was some (very little) outrage about this insult. But I wonder what kind of a shjtstorm Sarazin would have faced if he said something like "she's a caricature of a human being" about this minority member. They'd probably have hysterically agitated the public about how such statements facillitate another Auschwitz or whatnot.
I will take freedom of speech rather than control of speech. Sadly, freedom of speech does not exist anywhere. Governments control speech. They differ only in degree.8
