Megyn Kelly Told 350,000 Haitians to “Go Back to Haiti.” It Cost Her Nothing. Whether Hate Has a Price Depends on Who You Aim It At — and Which Country You’re In.

After the Supreme Court cleared the way to end legal status for ~350,000 Haitians, Megyn Kelly told them on a top show to “go back to f—ing Haiti” — and faced no penalty. Two rules explain the silence: in America, whether hate carries a cost turns on who it targets and whether the machinery to make it expensive was ever built for that group; and the same words are protected speech here but a regulated offence across most of the democratic world. Here’s how both work — and what you can do about either.
