If we all have Freedom of Speech, how can those crazies in New York fine someone $250K for saying 'illegal alien'. And I love this baloney about not calling your brother and sister by what they are...no, no. To be politically correct one must refer to them as siblings. Are they going to next tell us not to call our mother by that word.

"Or the private sector could pitch in on its own. Tomorrow, by fiat, Mark Zuckerberg could make Facebook slightly less profitable and enormously less immoral: He could hire thousands more content moderators and pay them fairly. Or he could replace Sheryl Sandberg with Susan Benesch, a human rights lawyer and an expert on how speech can lead to violence. Social media companies have shown how quickly they can act when under pressure. After every high-profile eruption of violence—Charlottesville, Christchurch and the like—tech companies have scrambled to ban inflammatory accounts, take down graphic videos, even rewrite their terms of service. Some of the most egregious actors, such as Alex Jones and Milo Yiannopoulos, have been permanently banned from all major platforms."

Now that would do a lot of good: replacing Sandberg at FB. Zucker will never go for it though.

As the article alludes, this would take deep gov regulatory intervention which is never a good idea.

I came across attempts to penalize hate speech. Who decides where to draw the line? A safe bet is that Islamic imams are spreading hatred by the landslide: start with them.

Or better yet: are the democrats bone chilling hatred toward the president would qualify? I certainly think so. There is no limit to where they go.
