In countries where Hate Speech laws exist, why aren’t people arrested for promoting violence against men.

Because "hate speech" was only designed to protect "minorities", and "minorities" aren't defined as "a minority demographic of a population", it is instead defined as "anyone who isn't a 'cis' white male".

Because advocates against hate speech are mostly feminists and they omit men from hate speech laws.

It looks like OP posted an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5672447/Campaign-remove-Clementine-Ford-speaker-Lifeline-event-tweeting-Kill-men.html

because men are not a "protected group"

People just don’t care about men at all. The same behavior is also performed by the mods of this subreddit. They allow women, feminists and misandrists to troll and harass men here but will ban you for speaking up against this typical behavior. Women don’t give a shit about us which causes the men to not care about other men.

Systemic sexism.

It’s because it’s not hate but liberating renouncing of their oppressors.

"Ms Mustafa defended the tweets (e.g. kill all white men), which she said were “in-jokes and ways that many people in the queer feminist community express ourselves” sent from her “personal account”.

So she acknowledges that hate speech targeting men is normalised in the feminist community. But that does make her a sexist pig and a racist.

Mm. Because the laws reasoning is to protect especially vurneable groups. Nobody of state believes women would get anywhere promoting man hate or supression of men in a world dominated by men. Say men were a supressed group in a fictional society, the hate laws would matter much more

To be specific, it's about hate speech against "men" in general, not hate speech about minority men. What irks me is that the same rules don't apply to both genders equally.

For example:

Hate speech against black men, or gay men, or Jewish men, etc. Equals hate speech.

Hate speech against black women men, or lesbian women, or Jewish women, etc. Equals hate speech.

So far so good.

Hate speech against all men. Not hate speech.

Hate speech against women. Equals hate speech.

There's the issue in my opinion.
