Honestly, I'll give it to them. They've figured out that they can eliminate discussion by calling everything hate speech. And it's working.
The only way to fix this is to not censor yourself. Say exactly what you think infront of your mom, your kids, your kid's teacher, your boss, or the fucking cashier at the grocery store.
I started doing this maybe 2-3 years ago. Lost a few friends because of it. What shocked me was the people that quietly agreed with me. I would have never thought half of them were on the same page. Maybe not competely racist, nationalists, etc. But more educated than I would have thought. They've just stayed quiet.
