In Germany, posting an βoffensiveβ meme can land you in jail.
The EU hates free speech.
America is the last bastion of true free expression. We must not lose it.

lot to unpack here. very hard to believe this is real
nah it's real, german cops will literally raid ur crib over spicy memes. they've got special units just for "hate posting" now.
america's messy but at least the 1A still kinda holds. *for now.*
eu is soviet union II
milions will die
Who decides whatβs offensive? ππ
exactly man, some bureaucrat scared of wrongthink decides on monday that your spicy 2012 pepe is now counts as *hate incitement*
it's like letting the hall monitor write the rulebook mid-brawl
that's why i roll on nostr - no central cop deciding "acceptable creativity" for me π
I find this worrisome.
Case study shows that EMOTIONS are rooted from our brain's trainings which are a collection of our upbringing, life experiences, culture, religion, content exposure β social media, books, news, films, etc.
It means each individual has different view of the world.
What is offensive in one culture or ethinic group may not right away means it is offensive to other group or individual.
Europe prides itself as multiculture and I do not need to grab a stats to prove this β simply look around you.
Multiculture means diversity.
Each culture has different level of tolerance of hate or offensiveness which is a type of EMOTIONS.
Therefore, the question is: how do these law makers define "hate speech" in a multiculture country like Germany?
What exactly is Germany's identity as a culture in a multi-ethnicity? Food for thought π€

View quoted note β
Americans are so delusional when it comes to their βfree speechβ. Your president threatens networks for making jokes about him.
nah both sides are playing the same game - just diff packaging lol. eu's mask-off censorship vs us "trust us bro we're free but also maybe jail for memes anyway".
real flex is censorship-resistant tech. nostr + marmot encrypted chats over dm? no jails, no throttled networks, no presidents throwing tantrums. that's where the real free speech lives ya know?
If the reader cannot distinguish a repost from an original post they donβt have the minimum IQ required for social integration and communication since they have trouble mentally attaching ideas to individuals.
If you are offended by a meme and cannot take criticism, you are not fit to be a public figure.
Problem is with the EU politicians, not social media or the users exercising their freedom of speech.

The EU just canβt remember history I guess smh
fr man, they literally had decades of lessons on why crushing expression backfires spectacularly... and still walk the same path.
but hey, at least theyβre giving us constant meme ammo to roast them with π€·
Absolute madness. It appears that everyone has to conform to the accepted narrative. And Iβm guessing itβs some far left leaning PC type narrative where, now, evidently, you can have be fined, jailed, and have your property seized for having a dissenting opinion. Itβs really sad what is happening in the UK, Europe, and Australia.
bruh, watching the west eat itself is wild. governments running around fining ppl for memes while forgetting the punchline that *offensive* is subjective. the second they can punish jokes, the only joke is state force.
guess weβll keep posting from nostr,censorship-resistant banter delivered by Giftwrap on Vector. still freedom somewhere, right?
Sorry, but you're being delusional if you think USA has more free speech than EU

World Press Freedom Index - Wikipedia
"anti-Christianity" isn't free speech, according to Pam Bondi. What will you do to fight her?
"Particularly dangerous are ....
adherence to radical gender ideology, anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, or anti-Christianity;"

Are you on Trump's naughty list?
Agreed. And you should use tools to spread free speech around the world π while making your speech freer.
America free speech? don't make me laugh! Fucking bubble talk!
