       Everything is violence except actual violence (but only if it's against people the mob hates, like Eric Clanton who literally cracked the skull of a Trump support with a bike lock and received no prison time).There is literally no such thing as hate speech. Just speech that some people hate. You cannot have free speech if some of it is hate speech .. and if you classify some things as hate speech then you have no free speech. They are mutually exclusive.

       Is hate speech still protected under the First Amendment even though speech is violence?

       @chris Yes, because hate speach is a matter of perspective.You can rationalize anything to be hate speech if your mental gymnastics game is on point.Only when we're free to speak our minds are ideas allowed to flourish. The moment we silence people from speaking freely. We lose our ability to think freely.As the old saying goes. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.Judge people individually on their morals and actions. Don't punish everyone for dumbasses.

       @chris It should be. People need to toughen up and accept that not everyone will like them, hire them, sell to them, or work with them.

       @stoic >"There’s no exception for hate speech under the First Amendment’s protection for freedom of expression, unless the speech is direct, personal, and either truly threatening or violently provocative."

       @chris @stoic It's hate speech when the government says so.
