People like to imagine a world where freedom of speech means freedom from consequences is the goal. That concept is flawed but people tend to think its something they want but its a naive way to consider freedom as you then enable oppression/persecution of others. Which is inherently preventing freedom.
Germany has freedom of opinion which is a more restrictive version of American freedom of speech.
He’s right though.
Well, honestly does Germany? I thought that if you call someone an asshole that you can get a fine for that. Isn’t that, NOT having freedom of speech?
I mean at least we are still keeping our right to abortion
