Regarding Press Freedon index Germany is ahead of all countries outside of Europe (appart from NZ) included USA but also big european countries like UK, France, Spain and Italy. 

Sure, sure. When the government was working with facebook to censor anti-migration comments.

Well I didn't hear about that. It also depends what those guys were saying not all countries have the same definition of "freedom of speech". Freedom of speech shouldn't give the right (and don't give the right in many places in Europe) to share racist speeches full of lies or unverified informations. 

Actually that can be suprising but there's mechanisms in many national consitutions since WW2 that limit democratic powers of population in subjects related to descrimnation because of race or religion. 

Unfortunately, it is difficult to find real informations about the situation today because opinion are so polarised and there's lies in both side pro-migrants / anti immigrants.
