Social media platforms have a responsibility to handle hate speech, racism, and antisemitism by implementing policies and tools to effectively address and eliminate these forms of abusive content. This can include:
Developing community guidelines that clearly define unacceptable behavior and consequences for violating these rules.
Implementing advanced moderation techniques such as machine learning algorithms and human moderation teams to quickly identify and remove harmful content.
Providing reporting mechanisms for users to easily flag abusive content for review.
Offering educational resources and tools to users to help them better understand the impact of hate speech and how to combat it.
Working with civil society organizations and experts in the field to develop effective strategies to combat hate speech and promote online safety.
It is important to balance freedom of speech with protection from harmful content, and social media platforms should strive to find a solution that promotes free and open discourse while also promoting safety and respect for all users.

I think that the real responsibility is on the users: if you do not like how a certain platform functions, then you are free to avoid it - but you are not free to boss others around, telling them what they can or cannot do in their private lives.
To your last point, there is no such thing as "harmful content", and any content can only be harmful in a very specific context. Safety is automatically provided by the nature of one being separated from other users with the screen and hundreds miles of physical space, and respect is to be earned, not automatically granted.

What Jules is vying for is a world where, if he doesn't like what you're saying, he can cry racism and have you banned and/or your content removed. The Israelis -- and their American stooges -- have been doing this for decades. I was reading a story just days ago where an English vicar was severely reprimanded for "anti-Semitism" because he'd claimed to members of his parish that Israel was behind the 9/11 attacks. When you're dealing with the Israelis, any criticism of their policies or disagreement with their narrative becomes "anti-Semitism" and they demand you are physically punished for it. It's insanity on steroids.

Websites are responsible for banning hate speech because it can lead to a hostile environment and create a space where people feel intimidated or threatened. Hate speech can also lead to discrimination and violence, which can be damaging to the safety and wellbeing of users. Additionally, hate speech can lead to a breakdown in communication and impede the free exchange of ideas and opinions. Finally, websites can be held legally liable for allowing hate speech to be posted on their platform.

Because nothing. The US supreme court has repeatedly ruled that hate speech is constitutionally protected speech. I don't have to like you, and I especially don't have to like you when you're trying to rationalise child murder and apartheid, so take a long walk off a short pier buddy.

Second, a debate website is exactly where people should expect to have their positions challenged, making them often feel intimidated or threatened. If you want to be safe from psychological discomfort, then go not to a debate website, but to cat channels on Youtube.
Third, even granting all these dangers that you listed, I still do not see why preventing them should be a responsibility of the platform owner. Are you responsible for every single thing every single guest at your house says, and do you have to protect other sensitive guests from hearing something they are uncomfortable with?
Finally, the extent to which websites are legally liable for allowing "hate speech" is the extent to which they are harassed by a tyrannical government, and opposing such harassment is noble in my view.
Nobody dragged me to this website against my will. If I feel disturbed by its content strongly enough, I always have the option to close the tab and go somewhere else. See how ridiculous this is? People who have the choice not to go to this website choose to go here, then start demanding that the website is changed to their liking so everyone who came for this particular website could not longer have what they wanted. It is like buying a book, reading it, getting upset and then demanding that the book is taken out of all stores and replaced with a rewritten version that you like.

Hate speech is not considered freedom of expression in most countries. Freedom of expression is a fundamental right that allows individuals to express their opinions and ideas without government censorship or retaliation. However, it is not an absolute right, and limitations on speech may be imposed in some cases, such as if it incites violence or discrimination against individuals or groups based on their race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, etc. This type of speech, often referred to as hate speech, is not protected by freedom of expression and may be regulated by law.

Your latter point, if accepted, leads to the situation where everyone bows to arbitrary tyrants around the world. In China criticizing the government is considered a high offense and not a part of freedom of expression - does every social media platform then that is open to Chinese users have to ban criticism of the Chinese government?
I find it puzzling that people on the free West nowadays are begging to go back to tyranny. One of the main selling points of the Internet in the first place was that it would give voice to those unable to express themselves in the societies they were living in - and nowadays people seem to want to suppress all voices that they find distasteful. They look at places like China or Russia where people with unpopular opinions get jailed or are found in pieces in garbage containers, and think, "Hmm, why can we not be like that as well?"
Many people would find the opinions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict you have been expressing here "hate speech". How would you like them running the social media platforms you speak on? Oh, but you think that it would not be them running them, but you and the like-minded people, right? Classic mistake... And the first victims of communist revolutions around the world were always the most staunch communists themselves.

As per usual, you're completely and objectively wrong.
Hate speech in the United States cannot be directly regulated by the government due to the fundamental right to freedom of speech protected by the Constitution.[1] While "hate speech" is not a legal term in the United States, the U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that most of what would qualify as hate speech in other western countries is legally protected free speech under the First Amendment.

Jules, I can genuinely say that you are one of the most childish and abominable people I have ever encountered. You're not even bothering to hide your personal vendetta. Predictably, you specifically encouraged @Dreamer to report myself and Dee, not to report hate speech generally. That is absolutely not on. You can't attempt to co-opt people into your disgusting scheming to have other users banned.
Hopefully, aarong will see this and rid his site of your toxic presence.

Hate speech can have a variety of harmful effects on individuals and society as a whole. Here are some examples:
Psychological harm: Hate speech can cause psychological harm to individuals who are targeted by it. It can lead to feelings of fear, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. It can also cause a sense of isolation and can make individuals feel unwelcome in their communities.
Discrimination: Hate speech can contribute to discrimination against individuals or groups based on their race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, or other characteristics. This can lead to unfair treatment, marginalization, and exclusion from certain opportunities.
Violence: Hate speech can also incite violence against individuals or groups. It can create a hostile environment and can embolden those who are prone to commit acts of violence. In extreme cases, hate speech can lead to hate crimes.
Polarization: Hate speech can contribute to a more polarized society. It can create an "us vs. them" mentality and can lead to a breakdown in communication and understanding between different groups.
Limiting freedom of expression: Hate speech can limit the freedom of expression of those who are targeted by it. It can make them hesitant to express themselves freely, and can limit their ability to participate fully in society.
Overall, hate speech can have significant negative effects on individuals and society as a whole. It is important to combat hate speech and promote respect, understanding, and inclusivity.
