I support freedom of speech. But I have not followed a single discussion about it that isn't either superficial and/or biased. I see people who blame Brazil for banning X (did they actually do it?) but are ok with US banning TikTok. Others who fight freedom of speech and at the same time dream of living in Dubai.

I recently listened to a respected crypto founder who wants to leave Canada for UAE. And then 5 minutes later, he is discussing how crazy it is  that France arrested Pavel Durov. Wtf?
