"...truthfully, you'd better off researching the political/legal history of free speech rather than wielding your own unexamined definition like some international legal touchstone. Until you do that research, you are just sharing impressions, however dogmatically asserted and accompanied by ever so many adjectives. And that research would have to include "irrelevancies" like the relation of free speech to non-government authorities, or questions like 'Can the US really have more free speech than Sweden if Sweden's press is freer?' and the like."
Show you can navigate such questions beyond bald counter-assertion. . .followed by assessments of the people who don't agree.
I'll be happy to respond to this, as soon as you make the connection between the individual right to free speech and a free press. Also, what criteria decides what constitutes a "freer" press? The mental gymnastics you're displaying trying to excuse people being arrested for having an opinion in much of Europe but they are actually "freer" than us poor folks in the US is amusing to watch. Also, kindly shove your condescension. Thank you.
