The judiciary in Europe has to be purged of leftists. When unelected activists dictate what can be said or done by elected representatives, that's not democracy.
They've given the principle lip service since the first French revolution, when they were also ignoring that same principle whenever it got in the way of chopping heads off. Post-enlightenment Europe never really took it seriously like we or the ancient Athenians did. They have rights on paper, but it tends not to end well when they try to exercise them.
They all have freedom of speech in their constitution, in fact Sweden has one of the oldest entries in the world. This shit here is laws on top of it, unconstitutional laws but still enforced.
If you paid attention to it you'll notice that free speech doesn't exist in the US either for the exact same reason. Say anything you want, but once you say something the tribe don't like, you're in big trouble.
The question is, does it have a caveat baked in? Because technically Austria has freedom of speech in its constitution as well, however it comes with the tacked on "except muh hate speech tho".
None of that, because then it wouldn't be free speech. Every single tyrannical limiting law is violating the constitution which defines your God given right to say anything you want.
