@jegga but literally only 5 posts before yours...
Look we can talk all day about the ins and outs of who posted what and when but the real focus of the internet has always been about posting snarky comments about people or groups you don’t like so if you think I’m going to scroll through a thread before I do that you’re wrong.

Imam Tawhidi from Adelaide has had a fatwa placed against him from a Pakistani mufti who has of course been granted a visa into the UK.
Well as long as they keep those problematic Canadian christian journalists out I see no issue here!

@rembrandt Could be a mental health issue, in which case gaol isn't the best solution.

To be fair the police did find and prosecute the guy. It’s not their fault the judge gave him a suspended sentence.

Has anyone reported these clerics for hate speech? Or are they careful not to say these things in Britain?

@booboo Tommy Robinson was on national TV calling out the Manchester mosque that Ramadan Abedi attended...end result of that was him being called a Nazi/Islamophobe
...a full year later the bbc investigated and what d'ya know..Tommy was right..again. Best put him in prison.
Hate speech law certainly appears to be influenced by intersectional theory. The more 'oppressed' your identity group apparently is, the more protections you have regardless of what the truth may be.

So NHS staff are being encouraged to use 'they' when referring to patients so as not to offend trans folk.
Transgender are what, at most 1 in 2000 people? And of that tiny percentage most would dress up to look like specific gender..
So in conclusion new guidelines propose it is more important to offend 4,999 out of 5,000 people than it is to potentially upset that 1 person who either doesn't give a damn or is so mentally ill anyway that they'll be looking for a reason to be offended anyway.
