Although he brings up some very good points. As soon as a joke becomes a criminal offence that brings a lot of baggage with it.

Maybe not to you, but that's not the point. Governments shouldn't be in the business of regulating speech and determining which jokes are too offensive for us to hear.
The speed at which the UK has devolved into an Orwellian nanny-state is frightening, and should be held as a dire warning for other western democracies.

My grandmother watched her best friend get literally chopped in half by Nazis. The following day or so, my grandparents (with my mom when she was a kid) and a group of their friends hid during the day and quietly hiked from Bucharest to Bulgaria - those that weren't strong enough for the trip stayed behind. The weather was not good and they didn't step foot on a road or anything. My grandfather got caught and they were able to bribe him out - they were very lucky. This group eventually wound up in either Israel/Palestine/Jordan or France or Italy. There were very few places (if any) they were welcomed or safe.
The group that escaped years later made it to Canada, although a pair returned to France, where I still have family. Their entire lives were of course upended, but most people they knew were either killed or they would never see them again. In about 1990, my family got a call from some group out of Russia regarding a family member trying to find his family. He was a cousin that was orphaned or something that somehow was taken by Russian soldiers back to Russia. I met him, but never got a chance with so many others.
That group that escaped have their photos in my house, they helped raise me.
Calling anyone you disagree with a Nazi is a slap in the face to those that suffered from actual Nazis. It shows a serious lack of understanding and probably demonstrates low intellect.

To re-quote a youtuber: Its either all okay, or none of it is okay. Every joke will be offensive to some by design, and either everything is fair game, or nothing is fair game.

Woman guilty of 'racist' Snap Dogg rap lyric Instagram post
|
Quote:
|
Chelsea Russell, 19, from Liverpool posted the lyric from Snap Dogg's I'm Trippin' to pay tribute to a boy who died in a road crash, a court heard.
|
Quote:
Russell was found guilty of sending a grossly offensive message by a public communication.
She was given an eight-week community order, placed on an eight-week curfew and told to pay costs of £500 and an £85 victim surcharge.
|
Also Dankula is appealing the decision as the fine sets a dangerous precedent.

Yeah, we're here. This is the sort of thing that when people say, "okay, the law may offer potential for abuse, but no one is going to actually interpret it in such an extreme way", I get pretty nervous.

At least his family didn't line up a bunch of pugs in German army uniforms snapping off Heil Hitlers when he left the court house.
