I doubt Palestinian protesters see it that way

They think they’re being targeted because the state is systematically racist, patriarchal and capitalist

They’re also the ones enforcing hate speech laws

Fair point, I would hope that some of them would at least see it as a free speech issue also..

Don’t have that hope 😂

They’re my family, my friends and my work colleagues

They’re for free speech once it doesn’t include hate speech

The left have a psychological affinity for oppressed and weak people, an urge that is hard to reverse until it thumps them in the face.

I also know this because I use to have the disease but did a full 180 during Covid

I'm in my early 30s and I genuinely don't know anyone who thinks hate speech is a good idea, and I would say the majority of my friends are fairly left leaning.

So I think there is hope yet.

We’ll only have to agree to disagree

If you’ve hard pressed them on the issue fair enough

And as the psy ops get worse, we’ll see who really understands what they mean

One of my family members works in the government and is currently drafting up the legislation for internet KYC and hate speech coming soon

And worst of all, they genuinely mean well 😆

Internet KYC, so much government oversight. I don't know how anyone could look at the shit show in the UK and think "oh yeah let's move more towards that"

I don't doubt the government wants to push all this through I just question if the average person in Ireland agrees with any of this.
