Being consumed with worrying about Hate speech rhetoric is a luxury belief, ideas imported from Europe and Academy. They seem to clash with American liberal values that have produce all sorts of diverse culture. It saddens me if farther left folks than me want to start shutting down speech so easily.
So much great art: literature, visual arts, music, movies, and video games all lived on the edge of what was acceptable at one point in time. But hate speech focus ends up being about shutting down what people don't like.
Our culture changes quickly and people don't change as fast as culture wants it to. Conversations work better typically than punishment.
A lot changes in 24 years. A lot stays the same. Kimmel is still in late night on ABC. And Carolla still does well in radio. There is room for many voices despite all our differences.
Merry Christmas!
