He's going to serve10 days in a Swiss jail not for doing a post on Facebook, but because he refused to pay a fine, and chose to serve 10 days in jail, in lieu of paying the 500 Swiss Francs fine ($625).

Details are important.
@Northwest And see below because the OP selectively edited what Brunisholz actually said.

@wildland For this type of short prison sentences, offenders may also be placed into semi-detention, where they are allowed to go to work or school during the day and return to the institution at night, or receive an electronic bracelet for home confinement.
@Northwest Yup, but never mind about that.

The point is that the OP claims he's being sent to jail for making a totally harmless and innocuous comment.
This is Switzerland? Wow.

I know what else he said now but who cares? If you find it offensive don't read it and don't support his work 🤷
Yes, but you left off the pertinent bit.

He wrote.
"If you dig up LGBTQI people after 200 years, you’ll only find men and women based on their skeletons. Everything else is a mental illness promoted through the curriculum."

Seems pretty homophobic/transphobic/discriminatory to me.
@Therealsteve Deflection noted again. You've been caught lying. Why didn't you post what he actually said?

@wildland Are you supporting criminalization of voicing an opinion and using verbal insults? You have to know where this leads to, right?

@Therealsteve LOL! Don’t dress up deflection as deep thought. An appeal to authority is when someone says ‘it’s true because X said it.’ I never did that! I described the content of the post and its real-world harm. The sentence ‘everything else is a mental illness’ directly delegitimizes trans and non‑binary people and erases LGBTQ lives; calling that ‘controversial’ isn’t critique, it’s bigotry.

If you honestly believe the claim is defensible, show your argument not an off-topic rant about state power🤣. Otherwise, stop pretending nuance covers for being cruel.
