Are racial hate speech laws being ‘weaponised’ against ethnic minorities? 

😅

Spitfire being racist and Rahul joining in.. LCD

@@RankinMsPit’s racist for the laws to be applied equally. You probably have the opinion of “hate speech isn’t free speech” yet here you are

@@RankinMsP Ah, the R word that lets you get what you want. hahaha

Watch the video properly, they don't the Tory donor is not being investigated for hate speech, even though his speak was far more inflammatory and hateful. Don't worry these Tories will still manipulate you anyway, steal more public money for themselves and their donors, whilst allowing your public services to rot. Don't worry @SpitfireMLG, you can always blame foreigners and immigrants for your problems, it will make you feel better, whilst you're waiting 2 years for treatment, because public health in this country has gone down a colossal toilet.

It's so funny to see it all catching up with them

White People being arrested for owning “offensive” toys in shops, but THIS is where they draw the line 😂

@@OnlineEnglish-wl5rp woosh

They way its reported its more of a protection for politicians. Clearly they are struggling to control the message

British law isn't equal especially when the judicial system is blatantly biased.

If it was applied equally these people would have a meltdown

@@OnlineEnglish-wl5rp Who is 'These people'?

​@@1066keefurbanBiased against white people you mean. We don't have a race card to play

​​@@1066keefurban The people in this video weren't complaining about the judicial system being biased, just that laws intended to protect minorities were also being used against them. They weren't claiming that a white person could get away with calling someone a coconut, if anything they would be treated more harshly for making a comment like that. The problem they have with the laws around hate crimes is ultimately that they are too broad. If that woman wants to be able to call people a coconut then she has to accept that everyone should be able to say it, which would mean relaxing the laws more generally.

They don't like having their own weapon used against them

Your attempt to play the victim is noted ✅

@@notorio526 i mean the whole point of these laws were for people to play the victim

The W/racists and their assimilationist allies of colour will always try to blur the boundaries between the very mention of 'race' and that which is obviously 'racist'. Its as if any mention of 'race' can be distorted/weaponised so that they can deny W/supremacy existence whilst consistently and proactively still acting it out.

Its not even the law. They get listed as non-crime indcidents. Both are unjust. Police care more about what people say online than actual crime.

To them truth is relative, if truth hurts non whites, then it is racist and hurtful and criminal in nature.

never seemed to occur to them that they'd be getting done too. it's all so hilarious.

@@latteoatmeal7807 to be fair I didn’t see it too. I honestly thought this would be just another anti-white law…

Be careful what you wish for. "What goes around comes around" will be a lot worse in the future for the people who did the worst harm to others for centuries. And it wasn't black/brown people.

hahaha

of course that's how they see it, i mean, was that ever in doubt

So it's somewhat complicated, but in short, the American concept of free speech as articulated under the 1A is nearly unique compared to most of the world. In the UK, freedom of speech doesn't apply to hate speech. Hate speech laws are enforced, with ever more frequent controversy.

In the UK the law is that if someone feels offended by something you say then it is against the law. It's really ridiculous because offensiveness is so subjective, and a person's feelings can be (in fact often are) irrational. We don't have as much free speech as you do in the US.

we're so way past that now, FoS laws have basically been ended. Started in the 2000s, Blair knew he was going to loose a load of M in the 2005 election bc of the Iraq war, M's were demanding hate speech laws cause they couldn't work out that it was going to be them being prosecuted by them (so many cases, J's say 'your speech makes me unsafe', that's it, they're sacked/fined/jailed. bit like with your campus business now). B's have also been demanding everything & everyone gets done for racism is b's say it's racism, now also, constantly being prosecuted due to their own neurotic, hair trigger basis to hate crime law 'if a minority says you've done a racism, then you have'. Well, again, it's they that are being prosecutued. Whole thing's been an idiotic joke from the get go, there's never not been a sensible prosecution. it's always been all the take, grevience fuelled haters using these laws. it's just htat the minorities are still struggling with concept of equality before the law, doesn't ever seem to occur to them.

@@alexanderangelo7284 wrong. up until the 2005 election, when Blair gave M's hate crime law cause he knew he was going to loose a load of M seats, we also freedom of speech. M's wanted them, Blair gave it, he still lost all the seats to the Lib Dems, we got to the keep the laws, the M's were the ones being prosecuted every time they were critising Israel.

These laws tend to arise from local experiences, they're a reaction to domestic actions. For example, when ethnic immigrants initially arrived in the country, landlords would put up signs no blacks, Irish and dogs allowed. There are other examples.. Black used to refer to all non whites. So laws were introduced in reaction to certain realities.

its fucking rich isnt it?

They might just be avid Guardian readers.

lol, and then fox news uses as many as they can in a sentence

“A Damning Report” really grinds my gears

What do you suggest people use instead of Woke? It's useful shorthand for something people kind of understand but know what they are trying to articulate. Say 'Critical Social Justice' and you lose the entire room instantly.

@@rescyn1190 Not saying the words are bad themselves. They just get overused and misused so much to the point I start to hate hearing them

Hope this doesn't come back to bite you one day. You clearly don't have much education or understand the development of human race

I’m just imagining him walking into Tory HQ on some “wagarn, Tarquin?! 👊🏿 What we saying, blad?!” 😂😂😂

Not sure you watched the whole clip. The coconut poster was actually quite funny the way she described it. I personally don't understand how its seen as racist and probably too slow to understand. Thankfully she explained it. They both seemed to get in trouble for using terms typically used by white racists and against politicians. I guess don't attack one online...without a vpn at least

I guess she wants it kept quiet.

"The grooming gangs" What all of them? Go on claim there are, then tell me that's not racially profiling a criminal group.

They don't even prosecute them as the racist crimes that they are

@@RobertTaylor-gz2fustop making stupid comments

​@@RobertTaylor-gz2fu They wish it to continue in silence

Exactly dianna Abbott and corbyn should be locked up

wow, a word from another country making its way into the English language...that must be a first🤦

@redalert2834...Then stop using their words like ''woke and culture wars'' in the UK aswell. British people have no backbone always imittating Americans in everything. Without even knowing what these words even mean. British people willingly want to Americanize their own society then the American distorted and toxic narratives about discimination and racism will be part of British society. You get what you ask for when you operate as a lapdog 🐕‍🦺 of Washington DC 🇺🇸

It's Brexit Britain that's a failure 🤡

The word WOKE is from America, but you guys adopted that. How about nearly ALL the music you have today. That is all American. We have our problems, but I would not say we are failing. The UK on the other hand....

@@alexanderangelo7284 The term 'Woke' has been distorted from its original US Black meaning by US alt right types. US Conservative talking heads brought the distorted meaning to the mainstream where UK Conservative Politicians and UK Talking heads adopted it for their 'Culture Wars' aka the re-assertion of White Supremacy.

lol. You are being sarcastic right? The antisemitism act went into effect on May 1, and is essentially defined as anyone who voices disagreement with the behaviors of zionists, not an "ethnic" group, but a political group claiming to be religious. Guess who defines the terms of antisemitism? They do....

The House just passed an anti blasphemy law so might want to start worrying

@@janaheelan I looked this up but didn't find anything. Can you elaborate on what the law is exactly? Are you referring to the antisemitism act on May 1?

@@janaheelan sounds unconstitutional, so as long as our judicial system doesn't fail us like the other 2 branches, we'll be alright. God Bless America for the last failsafe.

@asoulalignedhowgodhealshis6682 yes the so called "anti semitism" bill

They’re trying to get rid of freedom of speech

Whether something is offensive or not is down to the individual victim.

@@ArthurEmbleton Not everyone who is offended is a victim

@@ArthurEmbleton I’m offended by your comment

Yes, go to China or Mexico or Nigeria and say something the state hasn't approved, watch what happens to you.

And saluting dogs

It's ok for them to call the native population all the racial slurs they can think of though and use the word racist as a weapon against them. Cry harder now it's catching up with you

Asians in America are usually assumed to be from east Asia.

@@Dracoti Who told you they ''orginate from the Carribean ?''. That is why i said Afro-Carribean. Denoting Carribeans of African ancestry and heritage as the Carribean is mix of various groups. You need to edcuate yourself sir and stay out of the hot sun of ignorance. P.S no one is ''black''....its a just a race based color caste system created by western european psuedo intelectuals and psuedo antropologist.

LOL no one cares

@@OnlineEnglish-wl5rp You cared because you responded cl*wn

They say black because saying officers of African decent comes off offensive. You're partially right, we should say black and yellow or African and Asian, I prefer African and Asian.

I'm sure 12 steps can make up a "disease" for this too

What if you're mixed race?

@@ArthurEmbleton then you can critique both sides. You could count your self lucky.

So set an example of something no one else is allowed to do...? You're only offended when you can't control other people's freedom basically

The same for the Americas for Americans, Africa for Africans, Australia for native Australians and Asia for Asians I imagine?

We (the state) are just adding diversity to a country with no diversity.. cause diversity is brilliant (apparently) 😅

@@sylezjusz I was merely quoting verbatim "coconut is a political critique " from the video. Did you not watch it? The second part of my sentence is my opinion which I'm fully entitled to. I'm far from being a racist but I do hold judgement as to how one behaves as a human being

@@DavidZ4-gg3dm Millions? Ignorant

What a load of absolute nonsense. If minorities are ever unsafe in the UK it's because of other minorities. I know you don't actually believe what you spew.

Absolute nonsense. The only reason minorities are ever unsafe in the UK is at the hands of other minorities and you know it.
