In Europe, the 'no hate speech' idea has very quickly expanded the concept of hate speech to include any rightwing opinion around certain topics (mostly religion and immigration related).

This is an outright lie. There are an astonishing plurality of mainstream, right-wing views about religion and immigration in every European country.



There is a big right wing, but it has faced repression. Being classified as hate speakers, with all that that entails, is one of those aspects.


What does it entail exactly? You get negative opinion from some people on twitter, but it doesn't stop you being on the news, political programmes, political parties or in the newspapers.
