You can 100% say and post a video like that in the USA and not end up in jail. However there is something called consequences for your actions and words.

So the people of Thailand are free to criticize the king. Jail is just "consequences for your actions and words". Gotcha.

By your very logic you could claim we are not free because we have to wear clothing in public.

Um, yes? We're not free to go around nude in public, because apparently some people freak out at seeing body parts that everyone has got.

Anyway, haven't you heard? ["Freedom" is a fascist dog-whistle. We should be glad that we don't have freedom, because that proves how free we are.
