NO HATE IN POLITICS challenges hate, dehumanization, and harmful rhetoric in political life.
We envision a democracy entirely free of hate-based rhetoric and intimidation. We believe the American people are tired of a political culture that treats neighbors as enemies, and uses hate as a strategic tool to acquire and maintain power.
Our democracy faces a crisis fueled by hateful rhetoric, political propaganda, and escalating threats of violence. This crisis is amplified by political hypocrisy—the selective condemnation of hate and the weaponization of the First Amendment, while simultaneously trying to strip other’s freedom of speech.
For too long politicians and candidates have exploited hate as a tool of division to get elected and maintain power.
We see a shift in the electorate.
We believe the American people are ready for a change.
We believe they are tired of this game being played, and the messaging that tells us government is a game of “US against THEM.”
We believe we have more in common than we know.
I stand to uphold the principles of a healthy democracy, characterized by dignity and courage.
I commit to a non-negotiable standard of human rights for all.
I will not share, promote, or amplify hate, dehumanizing lies, or conspiracy theories.
I will denounce political intimidation and violence.
I will condemn hate and defend dignity consistently.
I pledge to defend the First Amendment rights, even when I disagree.
I will only support leaders who meet these standards.
Yes. We would rather know what people really think, than have them keep it secret, and later create hateful policy. We want people to speak freely, but we will hold them accountable.
No Hate in Politics does not oppose open speech.
We oppose the normalization and reward of dehumanizing rhetoric, propaganda, and intimidation.
Free speech reveals values. Our campaign asks what values we choose to empower.
No. Absolutely not.
The First Amendment protects people from government punishment for speech.
It does not require voters, political parties, institutions, or donors to endorse or reward that speech.
No Hate in Politics defends free expression while affirming the right of citizens and institutions to set ethical standards and accountability for leadership.
Hate is dangerous when it’s hidden—but its danger is amplified, when it is legitimized.
Our approach gives voters the tools to ensure candidates and leaders who hold these beliefs no longer receive support, paving the way for leaders who stand for human rights and dignity in democracy.
No Hate in Politics uses clear, consistent principles, not ideology:
The standard applies equally, regardless of political party, ideology, or identity.
Consistency—not partisan advantage—is the core principle.
NHIP will offer educational resources to regional alliances, ultimately leaving it in the hands of localized leaders to act. Ask us about becoming a certified regional alliance!
No. Cancel culture focuses on punishment and exclusion.
No Hate in Politics focuses on standards, accountability, and cultural norms.
We believe in:
This is about refusing to normalize harm, not erasing people.
No. The campaign is explicitly nonpartisan and as diverse as possible.
Hate-based rhetoric, propaganda, and selective outrage exist across political movements. Our pledge applies to everyone, including those we agree with politically.
If a standard only applies to your opponents, it isn’t a standard—it’s a weapon.
Strong disagreement is healthy. Passion is healthy. Criticism is necessary.
No Hate in Politics does not oppose:
We draw the line at dehumanization, intimidation, and rhetoric that treats neighbors as enemies.
Accountability means:
This is cultural change—not government enforcement.
To make dignity the norm again.
We aim to:
Democracy survives disagreement.
It does not survive dehumanization.
We believe that if society collectively rejects hate as a political tool, leaders and institutions will be forced to change. Our mission is to move from division to dignity, through four primary pillars.
centered on a non-negotiable pledge of human dignity for citizens and candidates.
Bringing together civic, faith, and community leaders to establish consistent expectations for political behavior.
Using high-visibility media and cultural events to make dignity the socially expected norm.
Demanding political parties and elected officials adopt formal, written zero-tolerance policies for rhetoric that incites violence or lessens human rights.
