      Jail is a bit extreme. But he is the proponent of fascist dictatorship and write poems praising it. I don’t feel much sympathy for fascists.

      Idk man, if people got jailed for being openly treasonous there’d be less idiots running their mouths.

        Who decides what’s treason? I despise my country at the moment, it’s a piece of shit country that doesn’t deserve my praise or allegiance. So should I go to jail?

        I see you don’t like freedom of speech, at least not for people who disagree with you
