Two new cases involving journalists in Europe give a frightening glimpse of how freedom of speech is being systematically snuffed out in Europe. One case comes from Germany and the other from France, and follow a long list of attacks by government suppressing free speech in both countries. The situtation is also particularly dire in the UK and Ireland.
In France a TV journalist for the conservative network CNews during a program oriented to Catholics referred, correctly, to abortion as the world's leading cause of death. Although factually true, it was something that the French establishment did not want said on TV, so the French media regulator fined the network 100,000 euros and compelled them to apologize on the air.
In Germany, the editor in chief of the conservative news website Deutschland - Kurier has been heavily fined and could face up to three years in prison for posting two satirical memes on controversial Social Democrat Interior Minister Nancy Fraeser. One of those is a photoshoped image showing Fraeser holding a sign that reads "I hate freedom of expression". That was published after Fraeser had illegally shut down a conservative magazine in a well publicized raid with dozens of masked policemen, an action that was later overturned in the courts.
Americans can thank our lucky stars that we escaped this same sort of nonsense from free speech opponents Harris and Walz., who George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley, who is a leading advocate of free speech, called the most anti-free speech presidential ticket in American history.

Opponents of illegal immigration are frequent targets of the censorship mafia in Europe, and that even extends to elected officcials. A French senator has been indicted for "hate speech" for posting "immigration kills" after a particularly brutal murder of a young French girl by a Muslim illegal alien. Free speech is dying in Europe and it is the leftwing totalitarians who are responsible for killing it.

It is the Social Democrats and the Greens who are the new Nazis in Germany. On top of goosestepping all over freedom of speech, they are scheming to ban the country's second largest political party, which is way more popular than either of them. That is what Hitler did to his opponents. Globalists are the fascist threat in the 21st century.
