Should public racial discrimination be a crime?

AI-generated summary, admin reviewed: This vote introduced criminal penalties for public incitement to racial hatred and public discrimination based on race, ethnicity or religion. It also covered the denial or serious trivialisation of genocide and the discriminatory refusal of services offered to the public, such as access to restaurants or public transport. Supporters argued that the law protected human dignity and punished harmful public conduct rather than private opinions. Opponents argued that it could restrict freedom of expression and be used as a censorship law. Swiss voters approved the law.
