RE: The new Terms of Service is a concern to me, a resident of China
the best strategy for destroying free speech is to do it indirectly.
"But even so, Nowhere is perfect, but I still think, unless statistics show otherwise, that the US has the greatest amount of freedom to speak what one desires. "
I need statistics proving this true first, I dont see many other "first world" countries rounding up protesters and taking direct action against political figures (like sending police to their house likely in an effort to kill them in a "welfare check", luckily in the recent example they werent home)
the police here directly give support to fascist activities in an effort to suppress every freedom of minorities, not just speech.
also, the majority of the upper gov just ignores the law (has for a long time). So it really doesnt matter how well you know it
I believe @mobb is making this post due to my comments on the Steemitblog's TOS post.
Plenty of European Countries lock people up on all sides of the spectrum just for being offensive online.

i read the first link, it seems like they are arresting alt-right, which is fine by me
Anyone who posts "offensive speech" can be arrested in the UK. That includes you, me, someone from the LGBTQAAIYP, white people, black people, Christians, Muslims, you name it.
Unjust laws are unjust period.
Yes let the divide and conquer continue. They have won.
lol the police literally go out of their way to go to fascist rallies and protect them.
Its left vs right, not auth vs lib lmao
