I'm a gay male, but I'm very reluctant to ban 'hate speech' - I'm worried that such laws could be used against other (as yet unknown) marginalized peoples in the future, if such laws, or rather the concept of such laws existed, they could have been used to suppress our struggle for rights. We, for example said some pretty sharp things about religion for example, which in other countries would be prohibited speech, similarly, we were also decidedly uncivil in our struggle for civil rights, so has every successful civil rights movement.
Any law used to defend the now status quo, can be used to prevent that from changing in the future, even to welcome other groups under the tent. Simply put, you got to the top, don't pull up the ladder behind you.
That said, I wouldnt object to broadening what constitutes a call to action to include doxxing and 'encouraging internet vigilantism'.
