Words matter: #Hate_speech and South Sudan
“South Sudan terrorists need to be killed in order for peace to reign. Lawful killing has been practised by states since time immemorial.”
These are the words of #Gordon_Buay, deputy chief of mission at South Sudan’s Washington embassy, as posted on his Facebook page. #Buay claims he’s simply defending his government, but some of those working for peace in South Sudan call it hate speech and accuse Buay and other prominent figures in the diaspora of fuelling the terrible conflict in this newborn nation.
