Anyone who really thinks words and opinions = violence is probably overdue for a few brutal ass-kickings to remind them what the difference is.

Sometimes we need that shocking reminder that the US is unique in freedom of speech. Whenever someone from Europe tries to claim that free speech doesn't include unpopular ideas, remember this shit or how the police in the UK will come to your house if you offend someone on Twitter with an extremely polite response which was vaguely politically incorrect.

Europe has free speech too, you know. Have you not seen the Quoran-burning debates? Some try to say we should ban the burning of holy books (cause Iran and Turkey etc get very angry), and they are facing significant counter-arguments because free speech is so important in Europe.

It's important to a degree but we've definitely seen TiA posts over the years where European countries do some weird stuff and you get people defending it with reasons which boil down to "free speech doesn't include X". This is what's going on in this Mexican article they are saying free speech doesn't include "violence" but the violence is politely stating the objective truth.

Also, I'm aware the US isn't fully innocent on this either. It's most noticeable with BDS where people are being denied state jobs like teaching if they have dared to say anything positive about Palestinians.

How did Mexico get so woke? I don't think this could happen even in Canada yet.

Any country which is begging for money is at risk of being taken over by the woke globalist borg.

Because Mexico doesn't have bigger REAL violence problems.

Cartels on every road? I sleep.

Offending some crossdressers? REAL SHIT.

“man who self-ascribes as a woman”. = violence?

"You keep using that word..."
