Sitting here in Europe, reading this, I can only chuckle. You will get fined if you call a policeman a "buddy" (Hawara) in Austria [1]. You got fined for sitting outside alone on a park bench during COVID or if you played with your kids on a public lawn [2]. All public parks were closed. We had lockdowns until mid-2022. If you insult a politician online, you will be fined or put in jail [3].
It feels like a completely different world that the author of this post is living in.
