Indeed. Though in a debate it’s a risky thing to say since you are giving the opponent the ability to gain momentary credibility if they can in fact name one example. Generally, one example alone isn’t really enough to establish proof of evidence, but if the opponent does as demanded, it makes them appear more competent and, to the uninformed onlooker, more convincing than before they were asked to “name one.” Unless you’re confident your opponent can’t answer the demand, as a debate tactic it isn’t wise.

You see, the Inner Party *used the Virus to prevent an entire generation from ever participating in Large Family Gatherings* (...at Christmas-time.) *Possessing no memories of either Family or Christmas* , it was a rather simple matter for the Inner Party to break everyone's belief, or emotional reliance, upon any feeble notion of "god."

+Heywood Yabloome I don't know where you live, but in the US it's not illegal to insult Islam. The left just bullies people not to do it on social media and college campuses, but it is still legally allowed. Only in Europe have some countries started to outlaw it.

[@MarkHogan994]

Heywood Yabloome Dude, you're wrong. It's not illegal. Yes they censor on college campuses, but you can't face legal consequences for insulting a religion. You can't go to jail for it, you can't get a fine for it, in fact you can't receive any type of criminal sentence whatsoever, and you can't be sued for it. From a legal perspective, you are allowed to say whatever you want, and you can certainly discuss the bad outcomes of evil beliefs. The State has no ability to prevent you from doing that, so it remains perfectly legal. College campuses can ban you because they don't represent the State so they aren't bound by the First Amendment, but the US government has not outlawed insulting Islam. That's just factually incorrect. Ask any lawyer, judge, or prosecutor you want (I am one).

@@teteudeu Claiming hate speech is a bogus term is an incredibly ignorant statement to make. Do you know nothing of what happened in Nazi Germany or in Apartheid South Africa? I grew up in Apartheid and it took me many years to understand how destructive it is. There is definitely such a thing as hate speech. Racism and sexist speech is hate speech and some other forms of speech too. The fact that you don't see this is disturbing. I also believe in freedom of speech and even the right to say things that offend others. I fully support the cartoonists right to do what he did but that is satire and social commentary and if you're offended then tough luck for you. But hate speech causes real damage in our society and stopping it makes us as a civilization better and stronger. Saying it is invented to justify censorship and trample on freedom of speech is complete BS.
