Moral Panic

Pretty much.
So many oppositions here claiming that this law goes to far and restricts freedom of speech. This literally is a hypocritical stance because you get punished for inciting violence in America.
They say "of course it's illegal because of the danger it puts people in"
The only difference here is that we apply it to literally one of the worst atrocities that EVER HAPPENED TO THE HUMAN RACE.
If you honestly think it's ok to try to deny it, you just show disrespect to the MILLIONS that suffered and died. I have bloody family members alive that risked their lives hiding people during the holocaust and you think it's ok that some people just claim it didn't happen?
This isn't about free speech, this is about remembering what happened! This is about making sure we never forget what WE LET HAPPEN and dos to our own man!
The word genocide was literally invented because of what happened!
It's not hypocritical to disagree with certain limits put on speech. Is it now hypocritical for a french person to complain about censorship in China?
It 100% is about free speech and appeals to emotion do not change that fact.
