Why does it not surprise me that there are members on this board who not only visit that piece of shit site, but will actually cite it as a reference??

They say the quiet part out loud on bitchute so you know that they are part of the club/cult.

Most social media sites have their own boundaries. For sure hate speech is not protected but some levels of it may be allowed on one forum or another.

I continue to hope that our current access to other cultures and lifestyles will eventually help bring people together but it seems to be perpetuating the divide in a lot of ways.

Bitchute telegram and some YouTube links have some of the most disgusting hate speech I've ever seen. It should not be allowed as it's pure hate and propaganda to disrupt and cause civil unrest. This type of speech THEY promote should not be allowed. The first never meant for cowards to hide behind it

This link hits hard. The truth about bitchute rumble telegram and truth social. Thank goodness these sites are really irrelevant and seen as what they truly are. Very good read with stats. Well put together

If hate speech was verboten, half of the leftists here would be in jail, that's all some of you have.

It certainly does include hate speech, that’s the entire point. People can hate whoever they want, and are free to espouse their views however they see fit. If you don’t like a website don’t visit it, but save the fascist censorship or move to North Korea where it’s perfectly acceptable.

When hate speech cries for denial of rights. When hate speech calls for Obstruction and insurrection. When hate speech is false and outright slander.....That should not be protected. Never intended to be.
Free speech has limits like other amendments. Thankfully!
Those that wish not to believe it really don't believe in democracy.

These sites I listed above have been proven to be places mostly of extremists hate groups and domestic terrorists. Great sites to visit and get news from huh? Those sites are places to spread false propaganda and recruiting for terror groups.

Everyone has a right to free speech, even if YOU don't like it.

And who decides what hate speech is?

The government, like they censored people about speaking the truth about Covid?

You?

Nope, not your job, not their job, especially.

Exactly. Alas leftists in this country hate free speech

They really should learn more about the first amendment

As to their so called hate speech, just because you may not like the views of someone else does not make it hate speech.

And just who is going to identify hate speech? Some misguided leftists ? The corrupt government ? Please

There is always a context. Some forums are accessible by the public and others are member only and some posts may only be viewable by those included in the thread so the rules of engagement will vary quite a bit.

One foundation of our right to free speech is that unpopular comments are protected but there will always be a limit. I would argue that someone joining a white supremacist forum could not claim the comments are offensive but having those same views pop on a Facebook scroll is an entirely different situation.

We are all promised the same rights and once speech begins to intrude on those there must be a check and balance. Once speech ventures into an area where it should not be protected then it is not censorship it is someone not using their speech responsibly. That said it is true a lot of people get 'offended' by little shit and want to set unrealistic limits and it damn sure ain't just Democrats

Those sites are heavily monitored by the authorities for a good reason. As is blm and antheifa hangouts. See how similar both are.

By reposting this type material it could be bringing unwanted attention here.

This post is by a true Republican

This sites entire business model is based on hate speech toward an entire group of people.

Good luck with any of that.
