        Domestic abuse is a problem in the US. I believe in empowering victims to have every resource available to escape and defend themselves from abusers.

          And we have the freedom to call you out on your American bullshit (that doesn’t even work in the US).

            Ok, I appreciate the update. I don’t really take the opinions of foreigners seriously so it’s good to know where you stand.

              …if you don’t “take the opinions of foreigners seriously”, then why would you - a foreigner - share your opinion?

              Grab both of your brain cells, and use em to find someone more on your level, okay? And trust me, “more on” is wording I’m sure you’re familiar with.

          The first amendment applies only to government action on your speech. It has nothing to do with your speech on a private website and it doesn’t apply outside of the US (even if you’d like to think the US owns the world).

            Yeah buddy I’m still posting. Stifling free speech is never a good solution. Maybe you are intimidated by opposing opinions and need some kind of safe space.

            I do not.

          You make it sound like thats unique to the US and a foreign concept to the rest of the world.

          Freedom of speech doesn’t mean you won’t face consequences of what you say.

                So free speech that is constitutionally protected is a sign of an underdeveloped nation? Weird viewpoint but ok you do you.

                The US is the only country with a flag on the moon, from where I live I can watch weekly launches into space. Europe depends upon us for manned launches. Our military is also more advanced than any other nation and is globally dominant which reinforces our hegemony.

                We are one of the largest energy exporters (which hopefully Biden will curb, I don’t want the US exporting so much Natural Gas and oil that it drives up our ultra low domestic prices and exposes us to higher over seas rates. Preventing further global warming is a good bonus).

                Did I mention that our economy is larger and is growing faster than the EU? Nearly forgot that one… https://statisticstimes.com/economy/united-states-vs-eu-economy.php

                Seems like we have a few things going for us.

          The irony of you tooting about 1A, celebrating your “right” to free speech, based on your ability to post something in a forum where 1A doesn’t apply.

          It’s delicious.
