The issue of racist mascots is complex and involves a clash between freedom of expression and the harm caused by racial stereotypes. While individuals have a right to express themselves, it is important to consider the negative impact that racist mascots can have on marginalized communities. Balancing these concerns is crucial in determining the appropriate course of action, which may involve limiting or changing such mascots in order to promote inclusivity and respect for all individuals.

What are problems of freedom of expression?

There are plenty of problems concerning freedom of speech and expression. When someone posts or says something that could lead to violence or hatred and subsequently the violation of someone else's rights it is illegal. Take the racial discrimination act in the UK for instance. Saying that you hate black people on the Internet could lead to some misinformed, already racist, uneducated or easily influenced people to act accordingly against black people. It's not just the political problems with freedom of expression. Freedom of expression also covers pornography. Complete freedom of expression would allow the publication of paedophilia, the abuse of woman and obsenity.
