Page 24 - MIL project HATE SPEECH

Example:

A teenage boy, with a small number
of followers on Twitter, tweets an
offensive and sexist joke that
trivializes the disappearance and
likely murder of a local schoolgirl. It
provokes a strong critical response

eventually deletes the tweet.
This kind of ‘hate speech’ may justify
soft intervention from local actors in
positions of authority, such as
teachers in his school or other
community leaders, but it does not
justify the Country imposing
sanctions or other restrictions.
