I left Europe decades ago and now I stand corrected, the law's been repealed in 2023 based on judgment from 2021. > I’d love for you to attempt to explain how it’s a bad thing I'm not here for that, I was just stating facts. Each country/culture/civilization has their own characterization of good and bad. Some goes as far as saying that tolerance for everything is "good" and that if you don't tolerate everything you're "bad".

Respectfully, you brought it up. Now when pressed on the issue YOU brought up you pivot to saying "I'm not here for that" and "I'm just stating facts." You were clearly trying to make an argument to say that the EU is being unfairly restrictive of speech. So back up your argument! In my opinion, you are refusing to back it up because your statements were weak to begin with.

  Not at all, I guess the way I've phrased it made you misunderstand it but when I wrote "It's by design and has always be in many European countries that you can say anything you want except what is prohibited.", I don't see how you can interpret this as "the EU is being unfairly restrictive of speech". You're making a shortcut, maybe based on the fact that usually some people use this arguments to complain about EU. > In my opinion, you are refusing to back it up because your statements were weak to begin with. No, you're wrong from the beginning. I think it's an excellent thing that there are restrictions on public freedom of speech and what I wrote is merely a stating of facts. You find my arguments weak because they only exist in your imagination.

    You’re right, I read it more as an argument against that system. In retrospect as I re-read you indeed never made that argument, even if the same facts support those who do.
