Defamation is illegal in plenty of non-dystopian countries.

There's a difference between defamation and denigration.

You're allowed to criticize anything, but if you knowingly publish lies, especially maliciously, then it crosses the line.

There is a difference, but there are countries where it is illegal despite it being true. Sweden is an example of this.
