“Hate speech” is not an objectively identifiable category. Any criticism of anyone or anything could be characterized as inciting hatred against the object of the criticism. The “hate speech” classification, as I have often pointed out, is simply a tool of the powerful to silence the powerless. These satirical children’s book covers focus upon matters of genuine concern: Sharia stonings and lashings, both of which take place today. But to point them out is “hate speech,” because the Swedish government wants to keep its people ignorant and complacent in the face of the Muslim migrant inundation.
I received this email from Jan Sjunnesson, a Swedish human rights activist:
I was reported by a self-appointed anti-hate speech group (Näthatsgranskaren), with government funding and interrogated Tuesday May 15 by two young females at the police station.
The case is built on the attached fictional satirical drawings of two children’s books.
Translations:
“Mustafa wants to join too”
“With Grandpa at work”
My comment says that these titles could be at the next book fair.
For this I am responsible to have incited hate towards Muslims and Arabs. A special female attorney devoted to online hate speech, Ann Lidén, is considering taking to court now.
