Some European countries consider politicians a legally protected minorities, critiquing their speech that was broadcasted on national television on your own website/blog can get you in trouble if you are not considered a journalist (distinction here being freedom of press and freedom of speech). State aligned journalists could even hang you out for online harassment and hate speech if you don't choose your words carefully, satire is essentially dead in Europe. This kind of bs would never fly in the States, EU is becoming the new and capitalistic flipped mirrored version of Soviet Union, we just haven't had our Stalin yet.
