You can end up in jail for posting "wrong" things on Facebook in the US too.. It's just a slightly different line.

> In some European countries (including, ironically, Ukraine) you wouldn't even be able to criticize the government the way we do it here in the US.

That's not true.

WTF are you talking about? Unless you're referring to state secrets or CSAM, or threatening an official, there's no way you're going to jail over a Facebook posting. And it's not a "slightly different line." Those and political speech are miles apart.
