Where would we be without the edit function?
One piece of advice on the German trip - stick to coffee. The Germans can't make tea. Not sure if that's racist.
Neither can Italians.
They focus on espresso.

HopefullyI drink neither...except at Chinese restaurants.
Water is me beverage of choice.
Available in Krautland?
So what do the Nazis call for? A wider choice of ice cream flavours?
How does the law treat violent
works like the Bible & Koran?
Hmmm....unbelievers need their own bookThat's a great question. A Muslim can call unbelievers "the worst of God's creatures" because he's merely quoting his holy book (8:55). If the reverse were to happen, it's off to jail.
Hmmm....unbelievers need their own book
to quote....if they want to respond in kind.
(I take no offense, so I don't feel the need.)
Hmmmm (again)....I suppose that by the premises
of the Koran, the word, "worst", would have a meaning
that I'd embrace with pride. To lack belief & despise
submission are qualities I value.
Where do you live?Back in the 90's I remember telling my wife that one day it will be illegal to hurt someone's feelings. She didn't believe me.
Where do you live?
(Your moniker suggests Canuckistan.)
Safe travels.Calgary, but starting this year we'll be spending 6 months is beeeoooootiful Avalon Beach, NSW.
Currently we're on a cross-Canada road trip to St. John's ND, and back through the northern states. So far, so good.
I can confirm - partly. East Frisians were addicted to good tea before the Brits.Where would we be without the edit function?

Out of the tap - at the same or better quality as from the bottle. But beware if you order water in a restaurant, you'll get sparkling water if you don't order "stilles Wasser".I drink neither...except at Chinese restaurants.

And Christians can cite Psalm 14:1 but when I call them idiots, I get a warning.That's a great question. A Muslim can call unbelievers "the worst of God's creatures" because he's merely quoting his holy book (8:55). If the reverse were to happen, it's off to jail.
Weird...silent water, eh.Out of the tap - at the same or better quality as from the bottle. But beware if you order water in a restaurant, you'll get sparkling water if you don't order "stilles Wasser".
Perfectly rational. You can hear sparkling water but flat water is silent.Weird...silent water, eh.
It's interesting that this is their focus.Perfectly rational. You can hear sparkling water but flat water is silent.
I was reading gas meters up there (Avalon beach) only a week ago. (Small world ay)Calgary, but starting this year we'll be spending 6 months is beeeoooootiful Avalon Beach, NSW.

Your lucky to be well off enough to spend six months up there.
Anyway stay safe and hope you have a happy stay in Australia
Free speech was designed to allow the open exchange of ideas. This was considered the best way to deal with those in power, who lack common sense, and who may try to suppress free speech, so their nonsense idea can be disguised with con artist tricks. Censorship has always been a way to create a lopsided data set, so bad ideas can appear to be better than they are. Good ideas can handle free speech and far more analysis data.
The idea of hate speech was a political game and work around free speech, since hate is subjective and it can be defined, by those in power, in ways that allow one side to get away with nonsense, without any opposition. It is type of censorship to avoid the bright light.
For example, the Left side of the political spectrum hated President Trump when he was elected. They made no excuse and would say they hated him and even express emotions of hate in rants against him, comparing him to Hitler. However, even with the word hate and the display of the emotions of hate, this group behavior was not considered hate speech, due to the irrationality of word games. This was a self inflicted game due to irrationality, which is why they could not accrete any responsibility.
On the other hand, if you did not buy into and agree with the idea of gender pronouns, this was hate speech. In this case the goal was to end any further rational discussion. Hate speech has become a political game that has no rational basis or any consistent set of rules for all. For example, only white males can be called racist and sexist, with hate speech not applying to anyone else. This helps with nonsense social engineering, since white males will pick this apart.
In my observations, men working at construction sites, decades ago, could and would can get abusive to each other, most often for laughs. Men, in general, seem to handle a wider spectrum of speech. It was part of a male toughening up ritual that made men emotionally sturdier.
As women began to infiltrated these once all male jobs and all male organizations, male free speech was dumbed down to protect the ladies from their emotions. On the one hand ,one was told women can do anything men can do, but other other hand one was told, ladies present so be careful. The male ritual of saying what was on their mind, was no longer allowed, in favor of more control over free speech. At that point one could con the women and men could not fight for their souls. One was not allowed to question the obvious dual standard, at risk of censorship and dismissal. When the Constitution was written, only men who owned property, could vote. Free speech may have been designed with adult men in mind, who were self sufficient.
This schema of dumbing down free speech, beginning with women's liberation, has been extrapolated, by the Left, to stifle free speech, to protect new pet social engineering projects, from common sense logic. Even comedians, who make fun at human situations, with humor and not hate are now considered hate speech. This is starting to reverse. This is how bad ideas get more traction than they deserve, based on lack of common sense and open debate.
Men are visual animals while women are more verbal, based on how the male and female brains are wired. Men can handle free speech easier, since words are secondary to visual evidence. Science, for example, does not care if you claim to have created a perpetual motion machine with words. It need visual proof. With women, words come first, since they lack the same primary visual checks and balances, that would allow them to double check the words, against hard visual reality, to help control their emotions.
Words are not gods that can control you like a puppet. This may be why religions tend to have the husband lead the wife, since he can handle more word data and can reach better conclusion due to more data and visual feedback. The Woke culture, is way overly sensitive to free speech, since there is a lot of nonsense to hide. My advice is keep speech free open, since it can help those who have been made shell shocked, by being conditioned to think words are gods that can control you. They often lack the gift of sight and need free speech to help them get this.
