    I don’t see anyone in US LARPing freedom bullshit since at least covid lol

    Well besides regime whores on tv… But that’s a different story

    But in us unlike china or russia, shit posters don’t get charges or at least not nearly as much for saying stupid shit online. People in russia peope get prison for being anti war.

      A friend of mine travelled to China, to talk about politics with locals they used his phone because they were afraid of their govt listening in. So yeah maybe the EU/US ain’t so bad.
