We vote in the government. Putin appoints your government.I am showing that there are limits on your freedom .How does this put claims of freedom in perspective? You seem mentally challengedOutrage after Netflix pulls comedy show criticising Saudi Arabia
Netflix has taken down an episode of a satirical comedy show critical of Saudi Arabia in the country after officials from the kingdom complained, sparking criticism from Human Rights Watch, which said the act undermined the streaming service’s “claim to support artistic freedom”.
It comes three months after the brutal killing of the Saudi dissident and Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi – which US senators have blamed on the Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman – and as the war in Yemen continues to devastate the country.
The American comedian Hasan Minhaj was critical of the Saudi heir in an episode of the standup show Patriot Act, delivering a wide-ranging monologue mocking the Saudis’ evolving account of what happened inside the country’s consulate in Istanbul in October, when the journalist was killed.
I sort of think that they are a private company and can do whatever is in their interests. But it does make all these claims of "freedom" in perspective.
What "limits" to my liberty are you referring to? Can you as a British citizen simply go out and purchase a firearm? How about your householders and the use of force against intruders? What about property rights? Can you criticize Muslims, gays, or transvestites without being arrested for "hate speech"? Can you even own a knife with a sharp point? Do you have a constitution that guarantees your first amendment rights to free speech, or to arm yourselves?
No. You are not free. You are a slave to whatever your government decides is best for you.
Poor Tommy, that BS is circling the drain as you struggle to type your crap
