    Those civil liberties in America still matter in practice?

      Uhhhh yup? For example, it’s extremely hard to get arrested and pretty much impossible to get convicted for saying words in America (despite all the hysteria + legitimate complaints about cancel culture). Not the case in France. That single distinction makes a huge, huge difference in practice. It’ll make an even bigger difference if Europe finally teeters over into full far-right populism, as it’s liable to do every few years lately.

You can't get arrested but you can be socially lynched. You will be fired and unable to find new employment.

        Do you think in most of the world people don't react negatively when you say things they don't like? I don't think this is unique to America and using the word "lynching" is beyond hysterical (in the hysteria sense, not the "haha" sense).

        if Europe finally teeters over into full far-right populism I don't think the USA is in any position to throw stones about far-right populism.

        Even Trump or someone much smarter than him wouldn't be able to convict someone for 99% of speech in America. The exceptions to free speech are well-established and they're far, far, far fewer in America than in Europe.

        See, good example! It really does require making death threats. That's not even close to the bar in most of Europe.

better wear license plates to confuse cameras. Or a speed limit 100 sign.

Shirts with stop signs you mean, those are actually decently effective.
