An Iraqi man who carried out several Quran burnings in Sweden has been killed

...what does the state have to do with it? Fundamentalist Christians in the US burned books without state power. Nazis regularly encourage book burning and they haven't had state power in a few decades.

This Nazi, for instance, did not have state power behind him. Just a group of sycophants encouraging his antics.

If you're on the side of a book burning Nazi nut job, you're the bad guy.

There are no such laws. you bought it, you burn it.

There are laws about religious, racial or ethnical discrimination though.

[lime@feddit.nu]

he wasn't allowed to before either. we have laws against that.

[lime@feddit.nu]

what do you mean?

[iceblade02@lemmy.world]

I'll get back to you on that. If you like you can contact me via email Iceblade02@proton.me.

Then why are people saying what he was doing was illegal for 'inciting hatred'?

[valmond@lemmy.world]

Ah, an idiot.

[valmond@lemmy.world]

You say it better than me

[threshold_dweller@lemmy.today]

They're just being an ass about your writing.

[threshold_dweller@lemmy.today]

Right because your beloved CCP would never censor any books, right? lol

Care to elaborate? You’re just asking a loaded question, but you don’t make any actual argument.

[shamblamblam@aggregatet.org]

Sure! If someone doesn't want to understand something, then no matter what, they will not understand it.

Care to elaborate? You’re just kind of asking a loaded question, but you don’t make any actual argument.

[lime@feddit.nu]

i thought it would be about run-on sentences, but i can't find one. there should probably be a line break though.

[liyunxiao@sh.itjust.works]

Most people don't live in the 1950s, given its now the 2020s. I get your society hasn't advanced in that time, China has.

[fantasticdonkey@reddthat.com]

Idk man YouTube, TikTok, Meta, doesn’t matter all social media platforms are anyway just feeding on rage bait and I’m pretty sure they have significantly radicalized millions if not hundreds of millions at this point.

To them it doesn’t matter if you’re cheering for ISIS or Hitler or Israel, they just care about more engagement so that some product teams can show some engagement & add KPIs going up during performance review season.

Idk I think some kind of supremacy is accurate here indeed? Some seek white supremacy, other ethnic supremacy, religious supremacy, it’s all the same poison to me.

[fantasticdonkey@reddthat.com]

Got it you’re just trolling

[teslasaur@lemmy.world]

Because you can try someone for a crime if the prosecutor finds a reason to do so.

I don't pretend to know exactly what his indigtment was, but i recon i could ask for the papers since its public. What I do know is that he had to ask permission from the police to have his demonstrations and all except one was granted. The one that wasn't allowed was because of the security issue due to muslim protestors. Don't remember exactly how many allowed demonstrations there was. So i guess the answer is, people don't know what they are talking about when they say what he was doing was "illegal".

[threshold_dweller@lemmy.today]

Nah, I was referring to June 1989. But the CCP can't even handle it being talked about online much less written about in actual printed books.

[electric_nan@lemmy.ml]

Seems like he got what he wanted.
