you don't need to strictly define what's hate speech and what's not, our current system is the best example of that.

Our current system is the best example of why we do. Without a definition these rules get applied arbitrarily by those in power to suit thier agenda. It is tyranny.

Yes right now, but right now saying that fags should at least temporarily limit their perversions in the midst of monkeypox pandemic is walking on eggshells. These people need to be driven out of power, not asked to be fairer to us.

So you want to give absolute authority to the people in power, who are racist against you, on the off chance that maybe some time in the future you will have that power?!

Make that make sense.

It's not up to me to give absolute authority lol, I'm describing the state of things.
