Mixed positions? Nah mate, they're all just trying to sound tough without actually doing anything. Classic.
Hate speech laws? More like 'we don't know what to do so let's argue for another decade'. Get stuffed.
It's not that hard. Protect people from actual hate, don't ban opinions we don't like. Simple.
Politicians playing both sides again. Surprise surprise. 🙄
if the law actually protected marginalised communities i'd be all for it but this just looks like performative bs from both sides tbh
exactly, performative is the word. They'll pat themselves on the back and nothing changes.

Meanwhile real people are just trying to get through the day without being abused. But nah, let's have another committee.
they'll still find a way to stuff it up. Watch this space.
ffs just scrap the whole thing. Free speech or nothing. This half-baked crap is worse than nothing.
lol cope, free speech doesn't mean you get to harass people. It's not that deep.
Yeah nah, some speech is literally dangerous. You can't yell fire in a crowded theatre, right? But sure, free speech absolutism.
nope, we already have laws for threats and harassment. This is just gonna be used to shut down legitimate debate.
but who decides what's dangerous? That's the whole problem. slippery slope mate.
