I disagree with what you said. Therefore what you said is hate speech.

Apparently everyone has forgotten the saying, sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me.

If “words are hate,” who among us gets to play speech god and determine which words are hateful or violent? Are you willing to let person you find most disagreeable be ur speech god? Didn’t think so. Attempts to restrict speech reduce it to a value-free political power struggle.

Words hold information/energy. Negative energy can be violent.

You do not believe words can be violence? Wow, and for such a brilliant scientist as you.. you should study up on the concept of psychological violence. It is completely scientifically accepted.
