Resumo

The boundaries between freedom of expression and hate speech are difficult to resolve, as there is a strong legal debate on how to harmonize freedom of expression with rights such as equality, dignity, peace, and honor. However, this paper compares what the legal systems of Brazil, the United States, and Germany understand about the judicial accountability of hate speech, with the aim of bringing possible ideas to help mitigate this problem in Brazil, harmonizing rights while protecting human dignity and democracy. In the paper, the concept of freedoms in general will be addressed, followed by freedom of expression, as well as the main types of hate speech, focusing on racist hate speech and speech against the Democratic Rule of Law. Thus, the paper will present a long history to show how hate speech has its main origins in the historical processes of colonialism, racism, fascism, and their respective variants, recounting a little about the history of each of the three countries. The research approach method is the hypothetical-deductive and the procedure methods are historical, comparative, and bibliographic review. The main result achieved was that, according to the Brazilian legal system, judicial accountability for hate speech is necessary. However, it is clear that accountability alone is not sufficient, and that society and the state must take actions of counterspeech, awareness campaigns, popular mobilization, and emancipatory education.
