[Peace-discuss] Hate in America: Where it comes from and why it's back

[C G Estabrook]

The principal use of the category of ‘hate’ is to undermine the canons of free speech. So criticism of Israel can’t be defended as free speech: it is rather ‘hate speech’.

The tactic is extended across the range of identity politics. Thus criticism of homosexuality becomes ‘homophobic’ hate speech and can be suppressed as such, etc.

It gets back to criticisms that have evolved regarding the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Hating on hate has become a big business, and heavily politicized. Indeed the whole Matthew Shepard case has been strongly critiqued, among others.
