Freedom of speech

The real irony? The First Amendment is American, but its spirit often feels more alive in Europe today. Here, criticizing governments, politicians and institutions is an ordinary part of public life—not an act of disloyalty.

Freedom of speech is not measured by how many flags you wave. It is measured by how those in power react when you ask uncomfortable questions.

Yeah right. Freedom of speech in Europe is only protected if you go along with the majority globablist opinion.

If you are right wing or conservative, the EU will do all they can to censor, arrest, outlaw or recount any sort of initiative that doesn't line up with left wing globalist opinions.

You only think that because the EU does such a good job of censoring opinions that don't support the status quo.

@SumKindaMunster How does spreading racial hatred and misogyny challenge the status quo? As the OP says, true freedom of speech lies in regularly participating in public life and being able to speak truth unto power as a basic right of citizenship.
