The US has limitations on it as well, they just draw the line a little further back than others, while you claim that this makes it somehow superior over others.
I start to think that you don't actually know the meaning of pedantic.
Youre not reading any of this right. I even said in a previous comment I'm not American, and wouldn't live under that free speech. I'm Canadian and fine with our form of free speech. The original thread is some dude saying we should bring these German laws to NA. And all i said is that they are in NA (Canada) just not in the US.
Half of you are arguing I think the US is superior, and the other half is saying Canada has as much free speech as anyone else. Too bad none of you can read.
And it's pedantic to pretend I'm talking about free speech in general, when everyone knows the US has a specific meaning for free speech not shared by Canada or Germany. Maybe you just looked up "pedantic" and put all your effort into reading that while leaving none for this thread.
Go argue with this dude that everyone actually has FrEE sPeEECh and tell me that's not pedantic. You know what he means
