Should hate speech be illegal?

Hate speech will always be a part of history

Question: Should hate speech be illegal?
Position‹3 of 3: Hate speech shouldn't concern the law
Argument1 of 3›: Hate speech will always be a part of history

Unfortunately, hate speech is a part of history. Countries have been fighting each other and conquering each other’s land for centuries. It’s something that can never be avoided because people will always hate something.

The argument

Unfortunately, hate speech will always be a part of our world. History itself has moved and developed because of violence caused by hate. Nations fought and enslaved each other to further their lands and kingdoms. Conquistadors destroyed Inca and Aztec culture for glory and wealth with disregard for human lives. It’ll never be eradicated, even if it becomes illegal.

Premises

[P1]Hate speech and the hatred behind it have always been part of human history, driving wars, slavery and conquest. [P2] Because it is so deeply rooted, hate speech can never be fully eradicated. [P3] Making it illegal would not remove it, only criminalise the inevitable. [C] Therefore, since hate speech will always be part of history, it shouldn't concern the law.

Counter-arguments

Even though hate speech has been a part of history and will always be part of society, it should be made illegal to curb the violence associated with it to make society better.

Rejecting the premises

[Rejecting P1] Although hate speech and violence have been a part of history, it doesn’t make it morally right. The law should be put in place to curb and eradicate violence.
