The Daily Signal - The Tyranny in the Left’s Goal of Outlawing ‘Hate Speech’
Some Americans are working to outlaw so-called hate speech. In a recent paper, Arthur Milikh, formerly the associate director of the B. Kenneth Simon Center for American Studies at The Heritage Foundation, calls the left's effort to ban hate speech "the new tyranny over the mind."
So what is hate speech, and how are countries around the world criminalizing it? What are the consequences of outlawing such speech? Milikh joins The Daily Signal Podcast to sort it out.
Listen to the podcast, or read the lightly edited transcript below.

- President Trump signs an executive order to ban police officers' use of chokeholds.
- After the unrest following the killing of George Floyd, the president says that school choice is the civil rights issue of the day.
