It isn’t about being offended.

The theory of hate speech is that speech leads to violence and oppression. Therefore, the person who said something “offensive” is just as guilty as a person who committed a physical act of violence. Even if no actual violence occurred, the person who used “hate speech” is still guilty.

The problem with this theory, is that we live in free and adult society. We will live a society where people are responsible for their own actions, regardless of what someone else said.

If you want to live in a society that has regard for hate speech then you are advocating for a society where liberty is abdicated along with personal responsibility, to some sort of social and political authority.

Adults are reduced to children who have to be educated and cared for, and disciplined.

This is not a liberal ideology, it is a SOCIALIST ideology.
