We need to spell this out clearly as many times as necessary:

Hate speech will always end up being precisely defined as any speech which causes friction in the ability of the established powers (government, corporate, or media) to maintain their control over what the population knows and does not know about the events around us.

This is the only accurate description of the purpose to enact these laws. All the words about "protecting" any group are just tools to enact laws such as these. It's is the PR face of censorship, nothing more and nothing less.
