As a European, I'm seeing a lot of bigots from the USA (and Europeans that simpatize with Orange Man) say that Europe is against freedom because:
1) We are woke and poor
2) universal healthcare is paid with taxes
3) Hate speech is censored
Well, maybe some of us are poor. I don't have much money and I struggle to find a job, but I prefer to be poor than to be a fuckin' d*ckhead with no empathy. Being poor is not a flaw, being poor is a condition. MY grand-grandma was really poor and with 6 children, she was a widow from South Italy in a post war country. None of you bigots will ever be half of what that woman was, how she carried her life with love and strength. If there are poor people, it means our society is wrong and should change. Also, not all European countries are Italy, some have better incomes for workers. Like, they actually get paid the right amount for their job. Crazy, right?
Unfortunately, many countries are not "WOKE". Here in Italy they blame "communism" even for a nail is badly placed. They hurt minors that are peacefully protesting against genocide, but let fascist do the "roman salute".
Let's continue, shall we? Are you unhappy because your taxes will help everyone get healthcare? First, you're an idiot, because taxes will help you get cured too without paying 10.000€. Second, the capitalistic idea of individualism has ruined basic empathy, because you prefer to spend tons of money than to help the community. It's funny, because many of you aren't even that rich, some of you have low paid jobs.
To conclude, freedom of speech shouldn't be freedom from consequences, but don't worry! In some European countries pigs enable hate speech and justify discrimination. So, unfortunately, even Europe is at risk to become the hellhole you desire so much.
My heart goes to the people who are suffering because of far-right governments, and to the victims of modern society all across the world.
