Police officers in Scotland are being given training to target social media posts, including re-tweets, of material deemed "threatening and abusive."
Under the county's new hate crime law, actors and comedians are not given a free pass to make jokes about sensitive subjects that offend people, either.
The new training provided to officers, which was leaked to The Herald, requires police officers to go after anyone who produces material deemed "threatening and abusive," which can also be communicated through "public performance of a play."
Under the new hate crime law, people who make fun of or misgender trans people, make racial jokes or criticisms of certain religions, or criticize migrants can be prosecuted.
"The different ways in which a person may communicate material to another person are by: displaying, publishing or distributing the material, for example on a sign, on the internet through websites, blogs, podcasts, social media etc., either directly, or by forwarding or repeating material that originates from a third party, through printed media such as magazine publications or leaflets."
The hate crime law goes on to state that "giving, sending, showing, or playing the material to another person" listing examples such as "through online streaming, by email, playing a video, through public performance of a play."
So repeat a joke you heard online, or show someone a spicy meme or commentary of a transgender person or mass migration on your livestream, and, and you too will be arrested.

Seeing the interview in its entirety is sickening, but at the same time the bullying & patronising nature of it is getting plenty of coverage for what is the most crucial time for our future existence on this planet. Only one person came out of this well & that’s Miranda Whelehan
