So only you get to define "hate speech" and as far as I can tell that definition is saying something bad about Jews?

Even if it doesn't have a name, it still exists -or do you think there isn't such a thing, as talk that is intended to turn one group of people, against another group of people?

Mein Kampf is a good example of words that were intended to bring about negative consequences for a group of people -or perhaps you think Hitler was just wistfully reflecting on his life thus far?

No I quoted Democrats, "the people of color" vs "white" that's their rhetoric and platform.

So you think Democrats are actively trying to turn one group of people against another group of people, based on colour?

Yes they've said it. But more precisely the left is ganging up on whites.

Then it doesn't matter if it's called hate speech, or not -the sentiment is there.

Which is my point -the label isn't important, only the sentiment.

I don't think there is any question that one of the tenets of the Democrat platform is Race Huckstering.



They are finished as a party if some of the groups they pander too figure out they aren't "victims" of American society and begin to strive for something better than the Democrat plantation.

So what can we do about the Democrat's sentiment, transport democrats out the country, maybe put them in concentration camps?

I'm all for hate speech -it's prudent to know who your enemies are.
No it did not exist. It is a DEFINITION of speech some people don't like, that's all. It is wrong to label things like that.
