Abstract EN
Online communication on social networks has become a never-givenup way of expressing and sharing views and opinions within the realm of all topics on earth, and that is that! A basis essential in this is the limits at which "freedom of expression" should not be trespassed so as not to fall into the expression of "hate speech".
These two ends make a base in the UN regulations pertaining to human rights: One is free to express, but not to hate by expression.
Hereunder, a Critical Discourse Analysis in terms of Fairclough's dialectical-relational approach (2001) is made of Facebook posts (being made by common people, and not of official nature) targeting Islam and Muslims.
This is made so as to recognize these instances of "speech" as pertaining to freedom of expression or to hate speech.
It is concluded that the language of the posts and their semiotic details signify that the texts therein represent hate speech which may amount sometimes to call for genocide, and not a mere freedom of expression.
