[/ux_text]

Hate Speech

Any kind of communication in speech, writing or behaviour, that attacks or uses pejorative or discriminatory language with reference to a person or a group on the basis of who they are, in other words, based on their religion, ethnicity, nationality, race, colour, descent, gender or other identity factor. This is often rooted in, and generates, intolerance and hatred, and in certain contexts can be demeaning and divisive.

Hate crime is a criminal act motivated by bias or prejudice towards particular group of people.
Hate crime has two main components :

[/ux_text] [gap height=”10px”] [row_inner_1 width=”full-width”] [col_inner_1 span=”6″ span__sm=”12″ padding=”0px 0px 0px 7%” padding__sm=”0px 0px 0px 10%”] [ux_text text_align__sm=”left”]

The first one is a criminal offense.

A hate crime has to be an action that constitutes a criminal offense under ordinary criminal law. Basic offenses could theoretically include any criminal offense committed against persons or property or public peace, including manslaughter, assault, harassment, destruction of property, hooliganism, etc. Hate crimes can likewise take the form of petty offenses, misdemeanors, or serious crimes.

The second one is bias motivation.

A hate crime is carried out with a specific motive-bias. This bias or prejudicial motive distinguishes hate crimes from other ordinary crimes. The bias motive is the perpetrator’s prejudice towards the target: victims, premises, or the target of the offense are selected because of their real or perceived connection, attachment, affiliation, support, or membership with a protected group.

Protected Characteristics

[/ux_text] [divider width=”100px”] [ux_text text_color=”rgb(0,0,0)”]

Protected characteristics classically comprise race, national or ethnic origin, language, color, religion, gender, age, mental or physical disability, and sexual orientation, but prejudice can also be triggered by other factors (likewise belief and political opinion).

[/ux_text] [divider width=”100px”] [ux_text text_color=”rgb(0,0,0)”]

Term ‘’FETÖ’’

[/ux_text] [divider width=”100px” color=”rgb(164, 151, 151)”]

The term “Fetö” has been widely used as a form of hate speech to target members of the Gülen Movement and individuals associated with them. This expression has been used to symbolize and denigrate members of the Gülen Movement, portraying them as enemies of the state or terrorists without providing evidence or due process. It has been utilized to justify discriminatory practices, including arbitrary arrests, detentions, and dismissals, based solely on perceived affiliation with the movement. Furthermore, “Fetö” has been used to spread misinformation, conspiracy theories, and baseless rumors that fuel prejudice and hostility against the Gülen Movement. This expression has been employed to legitimize human rights abuses, confiscation of assets, closure of institutions, and restriction of freedoms, thereby undermining fundamental human rights. It has also fostered societal divisions, promoted intolerance, and led to social ostracism, harassment, and violence against individuals associated with the movement and their families.
