Title: World Freedom Index

I find it hilarious that "democracy" has declined over the years it has been touted as ascendant! 

But, for 2022 it is also hilarious that Statista hasn't come to the realization yet that there needs to be a new category called "Nominally free but degrading rapidly to mostly unfree".  Fitting this new category would be pretty much all of the "free" nations in North America, South America (Brazil has been taken over by corrupt communists for God's sake!), Europe (Hungarians are more free than so-called free!), Africa and Pacific nations.  Cannot speak for Mongolia...but must suck being stuck between China & Russia, poor bastards.

Some guy said 400 people arrested in Russia last year for social media posts. Not surprising to me.
In England? 3300.
If you live long enough you see everything.

No link. I heard that Czech just sentenced 8 people for posting pro Russian stuff on social media.

Which looks right on the map for them...partly free...which is why rest of Europe and US should also be...and Brazil should be that and going hard into not free...

three countries - Iran, Egypt and Saudi Arabia - accounted for 90 percent of all known executions

Figures, matches the map above too.

Maybe we could make a push if we ever got around to legit justice in dealing with the traitors evading accountability?

*America (Trump)
*Brazil (Bolsonaro) - not arrested yet (just scammed out of his election and the commie rat bastard praised by FJB...
*Pakistan (Khan) - https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/imran-khan-arrested-given-3-years-prison-banned-pakistan-politics-ahead-elections (https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/imran-khan-arrested-given-3-years-prison-banned-pakistan-politics-ahead-elections)

One could argue Bibi (targeted several times) is one who emerged victrious...suspect DJT will too, we shall see...
