Many countries have recently synchronized their laws to deal with hate-speech.
You can be prosecuted for saying things that authorities will deliberatley interpret as being hate-speech.
Speech v Action...
Saying things is communication.
Action is a physical undertaking.
People can choose to ignore things being said but a physically active undertaking is applied by force.
Prosecution is an active undertaking applied by authorities.
So authorities who say they hate hate-speech and prosecute, are the ones who are perpetrating the actual hate-crime itself, which is worse than those who just say things.
Now then, II'm gonna say something that's true, and I really mean it - I hate marzipan.
Am I now to be prosecuted because the authorities interpret it as hating cake & sweets?
