An American tells a Briton, people in the U.S. have freedom of speech. He says: I could go up to the White House and shout: "Go to Hell, J.D. Vance!"
The Briton answers: Oh? We also have freedom of speech. I, too, can go to Ten Downing Street and yell "Go to Hell, J.D. Vance!"
@Mr_NutterButter @matrix that's 'cause Europe isn't the US and a couple of biggest fuckwits (Germany like always, UK which isn't even in the EU, probably France and Sweden like usual) don't represent the whole continent. That's like saying the US has dumb gun and theft laws because California has them.
Here in Poland I can say whatever the fuck I want except for libel (for a good reason and also illegal in the US) and promoting totalitarianism (based, might also be illegal in the US?). And for the former the usual punishment is a public apology, not a bajilion dollar lawsuit, and the latter is not even strictly enforced (shame, commies should get regularly beaten by the police to simulate their desired state without ruining everything for everyone else).
Now, this might get outdated if chat control is passed. We've repelled similar attempts in the past and will hopefully repel this one too. If we don't succeed, it will retroactively make you right.
