Preferred term

hate speech  

Definition

  • Hate speech is speech or expression that denigrates a person or persons on the basis of (alleged) membership in a social group identified by such attributes as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, physical or mental disability, and others. Typical hate speech involves epithets and slurs (e.g., “nigger,” “faggot,” “bitch”), statements that promote malicious stereotypes (“Mexicans are lazy”), and speech intended to incite hatred or violence against a group (“Kill all the Muslims!”).
