How about if “I bite my thumb at you?”
Or maybe stick my thumb between my index finger and middle finger at you?
Or just flip my four fingers at you? Does that make the insult four times as strong?
In America, those are expressions — AKA free speech. If you cannot do that anywhere else, blame your parents for their choice in birthing you in the wrong country.
Free speech is a natural right (Gawd given to the folks who have made their decision), as is the right to defend you life by any means possible. Those are not rights granted by a gov’mt. You get them when you pop out.
Anyone telling you differently is the type of person who would readily rat you out to the tyrants.
