"Hate speech" has a natural tension with freedom of speech. In recent years, an effort is being made in some countries to raise people's level of concern about it, for example by introducing legal restrictions about particular words. In US, opinion is fairly evenly divided about whether it should be made illegal to make public comments labelled as "hate speech".[1]

Wikipedia stated as of October 2017 that "A website which uses hate speech may be called a hate site. Many of these sites contain Internet forums and news briefs that emphasize a particular viewpoint.... There has been debate over freedom of speech, hate speech and hate speech legislation.[2] Critics have argued that the term "hate speech" is used to silence critics of social policies that have been poorly implemented.[3]

This "weaponisation" of speech is associated with increasing restrictions on freedom of speech on the internet.[4]
