SCOTLAND’S new Hate Crime Act comes into force on Monday – attracting criticism from expected quarters.
But since Musk has more Twitter/X followers than there are people living in Scotland , it’s always bound to make the headlines when they intervene on Scottish affairs. For both Rogan and Musk, the Scottish Hate Crime Act functions as a “cautionary tale” about what they see as the creeping rise of authoritarianism and death of free speech, said Stacey.
He added: “Because profit is that key motivator, there’s not a lot of incentive to actually read the legislation.”Musk would criticise the Act, according to Stacey, because it provides “proof” that his “new order” and defence of “free speech” was essential.For both, Stacey contends, the Hate Crime Act is proof positive that their self-styled crusades against censorship and illiberalism are essential.
