Well, inciting violence is a crime in many countries. Next time, please show your sources so that everyone knows you are defending a racist: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c703e03w243o.amp

Are you saying the free speech of Racists should not be defended? Sorry, that's what it seems like from your comment?

The US can also put anyone in jail for a Facebook post, or as in this case a single student newspaper article

Well, two down, then. That leaves about, oh I don’t know, 207 countries with universities. Probably at least a hundred of those are functioning democracies where you can expect rule of law and due process.

Sorry to disappoint you but people in Europe don't have as much free speech as in the US especially in the press.

In European countries like France or Switzerland you get sentenced to prison time for describing someone as "a fat lesbian".

Free Speech is much better in the US.

Nah.

This whole "freedom" thing is what led to Trump administration, which routinely thinks they are above the law, being in power. And if you think its not that bad, just wait till 2028 when Trump will coup the government like he tried in 2020 except this time he will succeed.

People need to be on a tighter leash. And as for who holds the leash, nobody = the leash is the law, and anyone who tries to circumvent it gets punished. Nobody is above it, even if you feel like the law is unfair - work to get the law changed if that is what you want.

I've been reading hilarious comments about what Trump will do since 2016.

I remember the "gays will be in death camps" from reddit.
