Folks don't get it.

There is no such thing as hate speech. (You can use the noun hate
as an adjective, but then its hateful speech.)

Instead of ignoring it, some call for government censorship

Which in the end looks like whining.
As if they or the government are the arbiters of fact, or argument,
what is divisive (or unifying) or humanizing or dehumanizing.

Personally I think catholicism, disdain for education, and breeding at 15 are dehumanizing.
