The article compares hate speech laws in Japan, the United States, and Canada. Japan and the US struggle to balance hate speech laws with freedom of speech, while Canada offers a better approach. Hate speech laws should aim to protect equal treatment and prevent discrimination. By focusing on these goals, laws can limit the harm caused by hate speech while still respecting freedom of expression. The key is to find a balance between protecting equality and upholding free speech rights.
