Ireland: Government Plans to Imprison People Just for Possession of “Hate Speech”

Somehow, despite the fact that there are not really any Jews in Ireland, the country has moved to the forefront of pushing the global Jewish agenda.

Ireland was for a long time the most conservative country in Western Europe – as well as the poorest – by a lot. They appear to have some need to show themselves as very much “progressive” and “down with” the globalist Jew agenda.

Breitbart:

Government ministers have been accused of pushing “thought policing” hate speech laws that could see people jailed for so much as possessing material that is deemed to be hateful.

Members of Ireland’s parliament have slammed the country’s government as wanting to implement a regime of “thought policing” in the European Union member-state.

Under the proposed Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022, which is aimed at implementing “hate speech” laws in Ireland, people found to be in possession of material deemed to be able to provoke hatred against protected individuals could face up to two years in jail.

To make matters worse, while those found with illegal material may be able to claim that they had no intention of actually distributing the offending material as a defence, such an excuse would require them to prove to a court that they had no intention of distributing the problematic content.

Speaking in the country’s parliament on Thursday, the leader of the opposition party AontĂș, Peadar TĂłibĂ­n TD, described the proposal as an attempt by the government to impose “thought policing” on Ireland,

In particular, the party leader heavily criticised the country’s Justice Minister, Helen McEntee, as wanting to censor people she disagrees with.

“For pluralism it must be possible for mutually opposing ideologies to coexist simultaneously,” he said.

“The quote attributed to Voltaire ‘I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it,’ is a foundation stone of tolerance and pluralism and therefore cohesion within a liberal democracy.”

“Helen McEntee’s version of that quote is ‘I may not agree with what you have to say and I will put you in jail for saying it,’” he observed.

He also criticised the ease with which a judge could issue a search warrant against the property of an individual so much as suspected to be in possession of “hateful” material.

Under the bill as proposed, a judge at the district court level will be able to issue a search warrant against a person’s home should a member of the country’s police service claim under oath that there is “reasonable” grounds to believe illegal material may be present in a person’s home.

“It is incredible that Gardaí would have a right to search your homes on this basis,” he remarked.

While a minority of TDs expressed similar concerns to the ones held by TĂłibĂ­n, the vast majority within the Irish parliament voiced support for the implementation of hate speech rules, with some members of government parties, in particular, appearing to be in favour of the rules that could see people jailed for possessing material deemed hateful.

This sort of extremist anti-extremism is coming to the rest of the world soon. There is one agenda for the whole world, and that agenda does not involve you being allowed to criticize that agenda.

“Hate speech” is only the beginning. They are going to outlaw criticism of global warming soon enough – just as some countries have already outlawed disagreeing about the coronavirus or the war against Russia.

The very core of the agenda is that you’re not allowed to disagree with the agenda. That is globalism. It can only work if people are forced into it, otherwise people all over the world could not possibly agree on a single global agenda.
