    Replying to the edit, I think you misunderstand what the UN call was for

    It’s not saying that we should arbitrarily defend objects globally. It’s not saying that the artifacts or texts are above criticism or academic scrutiny.

    It’s recommending that countries take measures to

    prevent and prosecute acts and advocacy of religious hatred that constitute incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence

    It’s saying that countries need to update their laws to address when someone does an action in order to incite discrimination, hostility, or violence.

    It’s something you recognize when you see it, and it’s about the intent of the person doing the action.
