Arguments against Restrictions on Hate Speech

Question One

The argument suggests that speech exceptions lead to stereotypical thoughts and notions that are created among members of the public instead of reducing the racist notions that are given. An example that is given is how an individual may blame all Germans for the events that took place during the Holocaust. In such a scenario, developing exceptions to hate speech would mean that all Germans are to blame for what happened. Developing exceptions for hate speech should thereby not only be directed towards racist speech but all forms of speech to avoid such consequences.
