Be scared. ☠️

The @ECHR_CEDH @EHRC recently issued a decision that prioritises the suppression of "hurty words" or "hate speech" over the protection of #freespeech. 

☠️ The court dismissed the right to free speech in favour of the government, actively intervening to curb expressions of speech, even among private individuals, and suggested criminal penalties as a preferred method of enforcement. ☠️

Even in pubs, etc.
