I've said it earlier that instead of bemoaning the
"PC culture people might be better served if they
stopped and considered how - whatever it is they are
intent on saying might make someone else feel.

Some people would have you believe that they are under
attack for "not being PC" and that they are somehow
the ones with courage for speaking their minds.
People bemoaning the idea that they can no longer feel,
do, or say (or legislate) whatever they want about
anyone with impunity.

These people are blind to perspectives other than their
own. They are incapable of seeing how their words or
actions affect other people.

I've already mentioned - children chant, "Sticks
and stones many break my bones but names will never hurt me."
But they aren't completely right about that.
Words can hurt, and hurt badly. People can stick the knife
in without leaving a telling gash - and often they do it with
words. The scar is that much deeper. Teenage suicides and
bullying is a real problem in our society today.

Dear Joe (Loudmouth),

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion
but of course this opens
up their opinions to criticism. Free speech works both
ways.

If your free speech becomes hate speech then some
of us can use our right to free speech to complain and
critique. If your show gets cancelled because you did
something offensive - that's not cutting off your right to
free speech - you're not being thrown in prison - you
can still express your views elsewhere. But the network
provider has a right to deny your expressing your views
on their network if you're spreading hate speech and they
disagree with that.

Dear individual,

You wrote;

“Yasmin's comments didn't fall into the category of free speech, there were hate speech of which you pretent to be an opponent.”

What an utter snowflakish PC rubbish is that? Next you will be reeling out the charge of 'cultural appropriation' because she used the word ANZAC.

In fact that may just be part of your lot's angst just you haven't sorted out a different name for it.

You blokes are a riot.

Foxy, my problem is, what I see as someone’s right to express their feelings or beliefs can be labelled hate speech by others.
Some people sincerely believe that interracial marriage is wrong. I believe they have the right to express that belief, even though I don’t agree with them.
Others believe homosexual behaviour is wrong. Same deal. They should be free to say that.
Ditto with the right to abortion on demand or euthanasia. People should be free to disagree without being called out for hate speech. Same with concerns over levels of migration from cultures incompatible with ours.
Because it’s not hate speech, it’s an expression of their personal beliefs.
Hate speech would be someone promoting violence towards some one or some group because of their difference or belief

Hey AJ Philips,
No there was nothing in between the lines, I just thought Loudmouth made a good argument why all speech should be accepted just as O Sung Wu made a case for 'simple good manners'.
- Nothing more to it.
Regarding Scott McIntyre, he has said and done worse than Yassmin Abdel-Magied, and on Anzac Day too.
Also after being sacked he sued SBS for unfair dismissal and settled out of court, so taxpayers have actually paid him for the right to abuse Anzacs on Anzac Day.
I don't know the mans politics or what he has to gain but some people truly believe that destroying the nation's identity and pushing socialism and PC is the way forward.
I think it's total lunacy and social engineering by the corporate elite and these people are all collaborators that should be put in a gulag now.

All people have right to say what they want but people must not say things that harm other people.
