Thus LDS is outside the protected groups. When someone from the groups they deem to be hateworthy pushes back, the self-deemed enlightened among us are conditioned to police the wayward in order to follow the left's absurd social rules.

Hate speech is still free speech. That's why the 1st Amendment exists.

Dude what? Where did you pull the violent comment from?

"Hate speech" is how leftist/communist define anything they don't like to hear.

Those consequences are socially enforced. Mormons don't have that clout

Where did you get that from? That is quite a mishmash of commentary mixing public and private issues.

Bob Vance

You won’t get support for that here. Many on here are in positions of privilege

Who said anything about imprisonment? Straw man much?

What happens to someone convicted of hate speech?

Probably a fine or something, since all the poster talked about was the NCAA

You moved on from the NCAA discussion. Don’t pretend you didn’t

"Hate speech is [not] hate speech" precisely because it's too easily morphed into personal grievances.

Who gets to define hate speech. Very bad slippery slope.
