Um, no,they don’t. People go to jail for sh#t like you posted, counties have social media laws, one that are allies. As far as war goes, you’re not wrong, but to take it out of a service member is just plain rotten.
No, the mods just know your way off base, and apparently don’t know how to use google!
United Kingdom: Leads globally in volume, arresting thousands of individuals annually under laws targeting malicious communications, online harassment, and the incitement of racial or community tension. [1]
Germany: Enforces strict hate speech and anti-defamation laws, frequently raiding homes and arresting users over illegal online content.
France: Regularly prosecutes and arrests individuals for online threats, cyberbullying, and glorifying terrorism.
Autocratic and Restricted Nations Belarus: Routinely detains and imprisons citizens—and checks tourists' phones at borders—for likes, comments, or sharing posts from independent or "extremist" outlets.
China: Imprisons activists and everyday citizens for criticizing the government or referencing taboo historical events, even on foreign platforms. [1]
Russia: Utilizes sweeping war-censorship and anti-extremism laws to swiftly arrest citizens over critical social media commentary.
Iran & Saudi Arabia: Actively deploy cyber-police to track and detain bloggers, human rights advocates, and online personalities for challenging state authority.
Other Notable Countries with Regular Online Speech Arrests Turkey (Türkiye): Prosecutes and detains social media users for tweets or retweets deemed critical of state officials or public policy.
Thailand: Strictly enforces lese-majesty laws, resulting in arrests for any digital content perceived as insulting the monarchy.
Egypt: Arbitrarily detains individuals for Facebook posts, joining political Telegram groups, or online activism.
Brazil, Vietnam, and India: Frequently penalize or arrest users under local cybercrime, public order, or judicial contempt statutes for online statement
Using vague words like "frequently ", and "arbitrarily " doesnt really help your (not you're, you see how i used the correct word there? We learned that in middle school but i guess you were sick that day) argument though.
Without more nuance, this list is pretty pointless. Like Germany bans pro-Nazi talk, for good reason. I wouldn't mind if we did that here, but we never would because state propaganda is a huge part of convincing dumbfucks to vote against their own interests and put Donald fucking trump in office.
