Just to note some speech that has been considered illegal in Europe:
- calling Muhammad a pedophile - convicted of blasphemy (JFC!) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.S._v._Austria_(2018) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.S._v._Austria_(2018)
- posting the government's own crime statistics - convicted of inciting hate https://europeanconservative.com/articles/news/afd-politician-convicted-for-warning-about-gang-rapes/ https://europeanconservative.com/articles/news/afd-politicia...
- a video of a dog doing a Hitler salute - hate crime https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-43478925 https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-43478925
So if that's illegal you can imagine how tame the legal content that was removed is. There is no freedom of speech in Europe.
- interactivecode 2y agoWhy are you so worried about freedom of speech when you haven’t even separated state and religion? Also, Freedom of speech doesn’t mean acceptance of hate. Im glad that content and people who encourage racism are removed.

Yes it does. “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Party_of_America_v._Village_of_Skokie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Party_of_Am...
- fallingknife 2y agoYou are the ones that have blasphemy laws, so I find it hilarious that you are complaining that we haven't separated church and state.
