I don't get this racism is a valid opinion and protected by freedom of speech thing. Why is the degradation of another human being and an attack on his human dignity just an opinion?
Am I now allowed to insult somebody and than hide behind 'but that's my opinion and I have the right to think and say that this person is an asshole (asshole is a placeholder for much worse insults)'?
Originally everybody is free to do whatever they like, but we organized is societies with rules. My own freedom ends whenever I interfere with the freedom, the dignity or the rights of another human. Freedom of speech doesn't give me the right of defamation, the right to lie, to insult or to attack the dignity of another human.
I'm sorry for repeating myself, but I'm just so frustrated. I'm white and married to a half black, beautiful woman and my children are also of color and I'm terrified to see where the world is going and how western civilizations are changing.
