Are you 14?

If history is any indicator the "revolutionaries" will kill thousands of innocents that meet arbitrary criteria before eventually turning on themselves. Power will consolidate into a dictatorship where no one owns anything and privacy doesnt exist. If you survive and aren't imprisoned the stuff you own will be confiscated so that it can be given back to you and your neighbor incrementally over the course of your lifetime.

patriot act and seeing the continuation of right wing authoritarianism

The Patriot Act was an overwhelmingly bipartisan bill.

You're just redefining terms. It's the same thing. If Twitter or Lemmy wants to block those things that's fine. I would agree that social networks should try to maintain some sense of decency on their platforms. The government shouldn't be involved though.

This is (mostly) a different point and I'm not going to engage with it. Suffice it to say that hate speech isn't a slippery slope it's the bottom of the mountain. If such a policy is ever enacted it will be abused and used to persecute people.

Teslas are impractical, cheaply made and expensive. That's why they aren't selling. Electric vehicles aren't selling in general because they don't make sense for the money. It's a forced meme by special interests.

While not pacifistic Christianity is non-violent. If someone claims to be a Christian and beats up a homosexual for "no reason" then they are sinning. This, also, is completely irrelevant to the argument I was making.

Everyone tries to enforce their views. You, I assume, want to enforce your world view of radical tolerance for [issue here] at the expense of someone elses ability to criticize it. Your neighbor might want to define hate speech as anything that violates Sharia law.

What we have now (which is no restriction on hate speech) is actually the best policy.

1. The Orthodox Christian God is all knowing. Evil is the absence of Good. (e.g. darkness is the absence of light)

2. Similarly this God is all powerful and has already defeated evil through the sanctification of man's nature through the death of Jesus Christ on the cross. Faith and cooperation with the Holy Spirit is how man communes with God.

3. Evil is the absence of good. So wherever people sin against God evil exists. Fallen beings exist as well because they too sinned against God but are eternally damned whereas man is redeemable.

God is indescribable and inconceivable. He created a church on Earth so that we can worship him. Worshipping God is good for us not just because God is good to us but because he literally is "good". In a world without God good and evil don't exist.

An army of leftists wouldn't fix anything

The proposals I listed are MUCH bigger issues.

Logic presupposes God. If God operates outside of time he can certainly operate outside of other frameworks we use to perceive the world. The human brain can fit in a bucket. Naturally understanding God is an impossibility.

The epicurian paradox presupposes false premises.

Define "good".

Evil is a privation of Good.

Why doesn't he add term limits for congress? And make stock trading illegal for congress? And ban lobbying? etc etc. This "anti-corruption" bill is really ignoring the elephant(s) in the room.

My point is that it's a moving target that will be abused. The government should not and thankfully cannot regulate speech based on the grounds of "hate". Hate is also not illegal. (At least in the US)

For example, Christians are taught to love the sinner but hate the sin. Homosexuality, drag queens, transgenderism are sins in Christianity. With your new law Christians are now censored because their worldview disagrees with yours.

Whoever has the right to define that term has immense power and that power will be abused just like the other labels in the meme.

What is hate speech?

The libertarians and social conservatives on the right are usually at odds with one another.

Sweet. I'll check it out.

It should also include "disinformation", "hate speech" and "conspiracy theory".
