    I’m all for eliminating hate speech but is the hate speech we’re talking about here just people saying, “what Israel is doing to Palestinians is genocide” or “Israel and it’s allies are in direct violation of the Geneva convention”?

    I absolutely despise fElon Musk but if so, that’s not hate speech. That’s an ethno-state intentionally conflating dissent with hate speech in order to get away with an ethnic cleansing.

    edit: this is indeed what this article is referring to in some cases. I know for a fact that that’s the case because they didn’t even cite a single tweet. Anti-semitism is a hate crime, calling out an ethnic cleansing is not.
