Native born German. Calling BS on that crap.
I recommend reading up on "freedom from" vs. "freedom to". Explains quite a lot of differences between the European tradition of ensuring people are "free from" an potentially oppressive state vs. the US tradition of "freedom to".
In each "freedom of speech" index I know, Germany fares better than the US, or Britain, or Australia. Or quite a lot of different countries tbh.
RSF World Press (lower is better):
- Germany 14/180
- Britain 18/180
- Australia 33/180
- USA 64/180
Freedom House (higher is better):
- Germany 95/100
- Britain 92/100
- Australia 95/100
- USA 84/100
