There's a section in India who consider anything anti-Hindu and anti-India as free speech but anything anti-Muslim as hate speech. They want to muzzle any discussion of ethnic cleansing of Hindus from Kashmir, Pakistan,…
How's sharing a news article on rape committed by Muslims count as hate speech? Killings by Hindu vigilante groups are reported and shared without considering hate speech against Hindus. Then why the double standard?

Free speech only for political mainstream is political mainstream speech, not free speech. E.g. completely open borders and unrestricted immigration is surely outside the American political mainstream, is it okay to ban…
When conservatives were banned en masse the liberals cheered. Their argument was that censoring by private companies was totally acceptable. Now that their preferred positions are being censored they've suddenly…
