I was listening to a piece this morning on Radio 4 debating the new hate crime legislation in Scotland. Concerns were raised that it could be used maliciously. But no one on the show made the point - or even seemed aware - that all existing legislation can be used maliciously.

It's beyond the joke now. It's basically to protect MPs and ministers from hurty words from Keyboard Warriors. Scotland will be building their own Gulag very soon.

Having a spat on social media goes back when social media was launched probably from the chat room era, I have no idea what they were/are. If people can't take insults, jokes, memes, ribbing then the Internet is not for you. Wokery is the new religion/cult.

There is already laws in place on social media you can't bombarb people more than once ot it will be harassment or stalking.
