Sometimes I'm in a bad mood and I think as you do. At other times, I do see that this piece of paper still offers some protection. I have no doubt that the ruling class would like to take the people's guns away, but they are not able to due to the Second Amendment.
And if you think America is bad, you should take a look at Europe. The German government hired a former Stasi collaborator to terrorize its subjects for 'hate speech'. Homes are raided for 'illegal opinions'.
While I still prefer Europe over America, because the main threat to free speech comes from corporations, and robust job protections do not allow companies to fire you for your opinions, there is no doubt that the US Constitution at least provides some protection, as opposed to having zero rights like Europeans.
I'll explain why. First of all, because I may not live in the Krautistani shithole. Secondly, because these people can only catch a fraction of the 'hate speech' out there. Germany and England are outliers, but I daresay even there, you'd feel more comfortable voicing your opinions under your own name than in the US if you have a job - unless, you know, you want to say "niggers are subhuman apes who should be hanged".
There is a smart guy here who can be crazy, who thinks that I don't reveal in what country I live because I am an agent for the FSB. The reality is because I'm guarding myself against being doxxed as well as prosecution.
Perhaps, but just from personal experience and of people around me, I don't think that people are much chilled by laws specifically. It's not exactly widely reported on, at least when ordinary people are persecuted.
And you would have to compare that by how much Americans are chilled by being fired and such things.
Of course, the problem is that you cannot be fired for anonymous posts, but you can be prosecuted for them.
