The definition of hate speech is vague, so differences of interpretation can allow criminalisation of innocent parties

Who gets to define what is considered "hate speech"? How do we ensure that the government can't use hate speech laws to censor criticism against them?

 @9FQ9YZQDemocracyNZ disagreed…8mos8MO

Social etiquette should be the guiding principle for judging hate speech as social norms differ and coming up with a universal definition for hate speech will miss nuances and other layers of meaning.

The government should not be able to put you in jail for saying anything that isn't a call to voliolence etc. As the definition of hate speech could be changed or broadened at any time. The people should judge you based on what you say, not the government.

By creating exceptions for hate speech you create a loophole that can be used to undermine all free speech. You forfeit your own protection against future governments who may hold hateful views themselves and deem your moral speech as the new "hate speech"

The government’s definition of hate speech is very vague. Who are they to say what is & what is not hate speech?

 @9FVMSC4New Zealand Loyaldisagreed…8mos8MO

who decides what is hate speech? everyone is offended by something that someone else believes in. does this mean we no longer have the right to openly express the matters that concern us.
