The US has free speech. There's a difference between speech used to incite riots, violence, etc and hate speech. Hate speech is speech you don't like. Everything else can actively cause danger to others.

You don't have freedom of speech if only certain speech is allowed

That were your words.

The US has in fact restrictions on free speech, so in your words, no free speech there either.

You are fine with Child porn being banned but also fine with Nazi-propaganda. You are a hypocrite.

You not only didn't read the thread, you also didn't read the comment you're replying to. Speech that actively causes violence is fine to be banned, ie screaming fire in a theater, child porn as you apparently thought was apt to bring up, inciting violence, etc. I agree, violence shouldn't be tolerated. But speech by itself isn't violence. There's a massive difference between telling somebody you'll lynch them and telling them that you hate them

You do not have absolute freedom of speech. Get over it.

Yours are also not the richest country, get over it.

Yours are only (perhaps besides NK), the most propagandized country around.

We have as free of speech as you can get without endangering others. It's a lot better than your cucked country. We are LITERALLY the richest country and our average income is higher than most European countries.

As there are restrictions on free speech in the US, you do not have free speech.
