MODERATORS
We don't. This isn't the U.S. with their freedom of speech, where you can say literally anything. We have something called freedom of expression, which does not cover hate speech, and a few other things.
The article is not about free speech absolutism. It is about journalism. Hate speech has nothing to do with it.
Perhaps the headline should have reflected the actual topic more accurately.
Or maybe people should've read the article instead of commenting based on the title
A) Welcome to the internet.
B) I don't actually think it's unreasonable to think that a headline should clearly indicate the subject of the article - why have headlines otherwise?
A) Take the L and don't do it again.
B) Welcome to the internet.
