    using the n word is hate speech and is a derogatory against race which is usually a protected status.

    calling someone a Karen is like calling someone a bitch or an asshole. it is protected by freedom of speech because you’re attacking their character not their identity.

      first of all, my bad, thought it was the States, missed the UK part.

      they do have hate speech laws there. I rescind my question
