Original Note:
"Hate speech", a neologism from the late 1980's, is a novel legal theory created to replace failed group libel laws. Academics believe curbing speech labelled "hateful" tends to support majority establishment power structures and undermine dissent. They favor public debate. https://www.google.com/books/edition/Hate_Speech_and_Freedom_of_Expression/LENSAQAAIAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=%22hate+speech%22&dq=%22hate+speech%22&printsec=frontcover
