Belgian Court Rules ‘Factually Correct’ Remarks Can Be Hate Speech
Truth is now criminal hate speech if used to “incite hatred,” according to a Belgian court.
The ruling came in the case of anti-migration activist Dries Van Langenhove, who said in a post on X that, “it is only due to a technicality that I could not immediately be sent to jail —to the judge’s frustration.”
Van Langenhove’s conviction was based on a lecture given in 2024 at Catholic University Leuven, in which he linked mass migration to “crime and a deterioration of our quality of life.”
He said, “Every single point I made was 100% the truth and based on scientific evidence.”
The judge, however, in his ruling, said, “Even if all of the statements made by Van Langenhove are based on scientific evidence and statistics, it makes no difference to the criminal intent. Van Langenhove is not charged with spreading false information. He is charged with presenting facts in a way that incites hatred against persons on the grounds of one or more of the protected criteria in the Anti-Racism Law.”
According to Van Langenhove, the judge and prosecutor did not dispute the facts in his speech but said he created a “hostile atmosphere of us versus them” regarding migrants.
It is Van Langenhove’s second hate speech conviction, and he faces another court case in September.
He claims there are a dozen active criminal investigations against him for hate speech and has already paid more than 420 thousand euros ($489,000) in legal fees.
Anthropological realities impose enduring limits on projects of total control. Human beings are not fully reducible to data, algorithms, or administrative categories. They persistently need dignity, meaning, autonomy, and recognition. When these needs are systematically compressed, tensions often accumulate rather than dissipate. History suggests that highly rigid systems eventually encounter resistance, adaptation, or unintended consequences that exceed their designers’ expectations. Technology may expand the capacities of surveillance and coordination, but it does not eliminate the fundamental unpredictability of human beings. The prospect of a fully administered “Prison Planet” may appear plausible in the short term; from an anthropological perspective, however, it remains a hazardous illusion for those who seek to construct it.

Many good comments on ^”who said in a post on X that”^
When propaganda and narratives are the “truth”, anything against them are “untruthful”. I saw the video and saw so much tap dancing around the truth to avoid conceding that their points had no merit or foundation, and relativistic when convenient, that there’s no way anybody can adhere to A truth. When there is no truth, there is no law or stability in society.
This is the chaos that they are promoting.
Help stomp out intimidation and censorship. Babylon Bee has a tee shirt that says “Truth is NOT hate speech”. https://shop.babylonbee.com/products/truth-hate-speech-t-shirt-1
This is perfectly relevant to this post: the Canadian regime now considers impoverishment by legal means those who disseminate unfavorable truth. In doing so it boldly turns its dialectical jacket inside out for all to see:

That is enacting Sharia blasphemy law. The Muslim Brotherhoid tells Muslum lawyers, judges in the West to do their best to obtain judgments or write laws which are in keeping with Sharia (without, of course, using the word). Islamophobia is a word for Sharia blasphemy and a way if imposing it on the west.
