[Reporter Zhang Ruizhen/Taichung Report] For the same sentence or word, but in different contexts or language contexts, the court's judgment of guilt or innocence will be completely different!

Take "evil" as an example, if someone questioned: "Isn't it evil for you to litter?" The court is likely to rule the former innocent and the latter guilty. The key lies in whether the expression of self-feeling is reasonable, or whether it is actually using methods such as disdain and contempt to demean the other party's social personality and status.

The same swearing, some are innocent and some are guilty

In addition, if the purpose is not to embarrass people, if there is no expression of disdain or contempt, and it is not enough to derogate the other party's social evaluation, the crime of public insult will not be established.

Xu Chengyin pointed out that whether it is an insult or not will also take into account the gender, age, occupation, education level and other objective conditions of the perpetrator and the victim, as well as the dialect of the place where the behavior is performed. ; As for whether it has reached the level enough to belittle the evaluation of others?

It is a comprehensive judgment that takes into account the motive, purpose, level of intelligence, idiomatic language, and stimulation received by the actor (defendant).
