🚨BREAKING: The European Commission has announced that it will WITHDRAW a proposal to criminalise “hate speech” under EU law. The initiative would have placed “hate speech” and “hate crimes” in the same category as human trafficking, terrorism, drug trafficking and organised crime. The proposal required unanimous consent, but several member states BLOCKED the initiative in the Council due to free speech concerns. This is a major victory for freedom of expression. But the battle is not over yet 👇

That is good. Some should be less rude And others less vindictive So that we will not cause each other to grieve. Let us learn to be like my Master. He was always meek and tender. bahai.org/r/324741256

Hate speech is paramount and must be protected.
