And when Germany ended up being invaded, they had less freedom of speech! Nazism is still illegal in Germany.

Germany allows most political speech, and doesn't execute teenagers for repeating foreign propaganda. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmuth_H%C3%BCbener So this is a very strange instance of "less freedom of speech" to justify this whataboutism.


There are a lot of tabu themes in German political speech. They also have a very strong "insult" law which can land you in jail.
