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.
No country in Europe ever had freedom of speech and association to begin with, that's just the consequence of that.
I don't know a single party in Europe that has something close to the US first amendment as a political platform for constitutional revision.
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.
