I honestly don't know what the perception of people is that they compare modern day US with the Stasi times.
I'm serious, the comparison is so out of this world, but I keep hearing it.
Tell me anything that is politically incorrect that you could say in a bar that will get you tortured/executed/imprisoned.
I'm really not saying that this political correctness craze is any good and I'm pretty much on the it's too much in many cases side, but the degrees between getting bad looks and a discussion that gets heated.
Whenever I also have this argument, some people go nut picking and get me a couple of example where you could say that, I'm not even saying those don't exist, and they are terrible, it's just not even close to systematic and nothing to do with the Stasi times.
Also in regards to Germany, have you ever been there? I know it's anecdotal but people basically there just speak their minds, I've heard mall kinds of right wing politically incorrect stuff, on both sides.
