Privacy Policy Insert: Racism, Prejudice, & Protected Speech

Anti-Discrimination & Anti-Prejudice Statement

FreakingPuertoRican.com does not promote or endorse discrimination, harassment, or violence against any individual or group based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or any other protected characteristic.

Content published on this site is intended for commentary, critique, satire, cultural analysis, and personal expression, and may address sensitive or controversial topics. The expression of critical opinions, lived experiences, or social commentary does not constitute advocacy of hatred or unlawful conduct.

Why this helps:
It makes clear you’re not endorsing racism, even when discussing it bluntly.

First Amendment & Opinion Disclaimer

All content published on FreakingPuertoRican.com reflects the personal opinions, viewpoints, artistic expression, and rhetorical commentary of the author(s).

Statements of opinion, satire, parody, hyperbole, and rhetorical exaggeration are protected forms of speech under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and are not assertions of verifiable fact.

Why this helps:
This invokes First Amendment protection and the “opinion vs. fact” doctrine that kills a lot of defamation claims.

Fair Comment, Satire & Cultural Criticism

This site engages in fair comment and criticism on matters of public interest, culture, media, religion, politics, and social behavior. Any references to individuals, groups, or institutions are made within the context of editorial commentary, criticism, or satire, and should not be interpreted as statements of fact unless explicitly stated as such.

Why this helps:
“Fair comment” is a long-recognized legal defense in U.S. law.

No Intent to Defame or Incite

FreakingPuertoRican.com does not publish content with the intent to defame, threaten, harass, or unlawfully incite harm against any person or group. Readers acknowledge that disagreement with content does not constitute legal harm.

Why this helps:
Intent matters in lawsuits. This shuts down bad-faith arguments.

Anti-SLAPP Notice (Very Important)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, FreakingPuertoRican.com reserves all rights under applicable anti-SLAPP statutes, which protect against lawsuits intended to censor, intimidate, or silence lawful free speech on matters of public concern.

Why this helps:
Anti-SLAPP laws allow courts to dismiss garbage lawsuits early and sometimes force the plaintiff to pay your legal fees. Even mentioning this can scare off opportunists.

⚠️ Note: Anti-SLAPP laws vary by state, but this language is still standard and smart.

Limitation of Liability

By accessing this site, users agree that FreakingPuertoRican.com shall not be held liable for perceived offense, emotional distress, or disagreement arising from lawful expressive content protected under the United States Constitution.

We will disclose any information we collect, use or receive if required or permitted by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process, and when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.
