‘What about hate speech using only body language?’
like a mime...? that would make a great story; ‘mime arrested for hate speech’...hope it happens...
No, not necessarily like a mime, but more like the kind of body language that people supposedly use unwittingly. The interpreters of such body language may believe that they have their end of it down to a science, but no, it’s one of those inexact sciences that have somehow been elevated. I would be interested in knowing how to use body language that really gets the message across without there being any doubt as to what I’d be saying. However, only a crazy person would believe that a ‘message’ was sent and that it deserves a retaliatory verbal or physical response of some kind. Now that I think of it, all I’d have to do is look at somebody cross-eyed and they’d be offended.
