@CobaltVelvet it's nice, except for the usa-centric idea that free-speech equals nazism

@CobaltVelvet yeah, pretty much so. Here in Europe we always laugh when we read that kind of stuff. Actually here are the right-winged that are against free speech, because they regularly get blasted in every public discussion

@chobeat I live "here", german nazism worked that way too, all misinformation comes from the fact that being loud and violent convince idiots and scare/hurt the others, it's not related to the USA.
Here we just usually agree free speech do not include hate speech, but it's not obvious to everyone even in europe

Simone Robutti @chobeat

@CobaltVelvet free speech is not freedom to tell bullshit. That's something that is considered a given in Europe but not in the USA. Anyway, this fight against free speech is tipical of the recent evolution of the public discourse in the USA, but it's not really a thing in Europe, come on. The only people that care about it are just heavily influenced by american ideologies (in both directions), but they are alien to european political discourse.
