There is no real difference between hate speech and violent speech
People like Musk attempt to draw a line between "hate speech" (which
he considers to be "free speech") and "violent speech" (which,
supposedly, he opposes). This is nonsense of course. If someone is
posting that "blue three-legged people from Atlantis" are horrible,
diseased, and responsible for all of society's ills" -- the violent
intent is obvious without being explicitly expressed. And the
followers of the people who post such hate speech understand this --
and may act on it. Musk knows this. It's all part of the plan. -L
