I would say even one is too many.

The law was written in such a way intentionally to suppress speech. People who wrote it ain’t stupid.

Indeed. The success of even one such prosecution means that the second someone in government wants someone out of the way, they can efficiently be imprisoned for anything rising to the level of... "offensive."

"offensive" actually has a relatively solid definition based on how judges have ruled on it in the past. This includes hate-mongering against protected characteristics, which I see a lot of from the USA right now.

Can you share this definition of “offensive” you mentioned?

You're loving this.
