    I'm sure you're not alone in your preferences, but this is a key difference between Americans and Europeans.

    Granted, both Europe and America have been moving in an authoritarian direction.

    Pretty sure that If i scream about the Algerian genocide in France I do not get death threats, or put in Jail like in Turkey.

    I'm curious to see what Turkey would do if the rest of the EU follows suit. Or if more of the world started acknowledging the genocide.

    The US has an extremely effective system of censorship that is not so crude as the French method on display here. It's much less obvious.
