Ireland is currently bringing in an extremely draconian hate speech bill that doesn't clearly define what hate it, and makes it possible for an individual to make a citizen's arrest if they consider someone's speech hateful. Can you imagine the carnage at the next protest? It doesn't matter what it's about, either side can accuse the other of hate thought crimes, and then things will get physical as they try to arrest each other.
Of course the ICCL (Irish Council for Civil Liberties) aren't kicking up a fuss about thought crime, because they've been pretty much ideologically captured.
