What these European idiots don't seem to understand is that so-called "hate speech" laws are against our constitution. We would have to abolish the First Amendment for this prediction to come true, and I don't see that happening in the near future.

At the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland this week, a European Union official predicted to a U.S. congressman that the U.S. would “soon” enact laws on “illegal hate speech” similar to those in the EU.
Věra Jourová, the vice president of values and transparency for the European Commission, tapped Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton on the arm and laughed as she made the prediction. It came as she discussed whether AI is capable of moderating online hate speech.
“For hate speech, well, we need the people who understand the language and the case law in the country, because what qualifies as hate speech as illegal hate speech — which you will have soon also in the U.S.,” she said, looking to Moulton, who smiled back. “I think that we have a strong reason why we have this in the criminal law,” she continued.
