    Default Hate speech

    This guy - Counter Arguments - is spot-on in his analysis and explanation


    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I agree with the speaker. "Hate speech" is contradictory to "freedom of speech"; the former being a subcategory of the all-encompassing latter. I think people should be allowed to express themselves freely as pointed out at the beginning, in the appropriate forum.

    To really get nit-picky about it, People who express their hatred and intolerance of "hate speech" are guilty of the same.
