According to Lisitsa, the TSO had lawyers combing over her tweets since December to see if any of them could be considered "hate speech" - they gave up. So Sunier had to resort to the phrase "bordering on hate speech". It kind of raises the question as to what is legitimate satire/sarcasm and what is hate speech. And, frankly, I don't want an organization such as the Toronto Symphony (which hardly has a sterling past in standing up for human rights - even of its own players!) making that decision for me.
