so it is an oversight? granted the drafters of the US constitution were very young and inexperienced but surely they would have mentioned hate speech separately?

What problems does a law that forbids hate speech solve? My country has strong provisions against hate speech but has countless problems with radicalization anyway. It is also far more likely to succumb to fascism compared to America.

I believe advocates of these laws just want to quench dissent, since hate can be defined as anything.

at least you can prosecute the agents of radicalization, not just the radicalized, which is a symptom not the actual problem.

The US Constitution acknowledges individuals' rights. "Hate speech" does not infringe on any ones rights ergo it is protected speech.

I read the article about dignity as a right. I do not think dignity is explicitly a right in the USA.
