        There is an obvious reason why countries like Germany make a strong stance against any “trolling” nazi joke/imagery/salute.

        But America’s First Amendment seems to not understand that reason (or only understand when it is weaponized against communism, black people, trans rights and all the “woke culture” stuff)

          Like alot of things in the USA, laws are selectively enforced to protect the status quo.

          America’s first amendment doesn’t grant a total right to free speech. Conspiracy to commit murder is just speech, but is very much illegal, and so is copyright infringement.

      The permission of unrestricted hate speech is what leads the people like your current president being your current president.
