Sorry, it wasn’t meant to be a blanket statement of all countries but “other countries” as in there are countries that you can’t talk shit about your government and it is much more than the 3 you mentioned.
It can also be much more subtle than it is in say North Korea. Russia seems to have a lot of people falling out of building windows when they oppose the government. Jails house political opponents, journalists, whistle lowers, and the like.
A good portion of Europe have constitutions in place. The EU itself has a constitution. I’d also like to add that “freedom” means something different to different people so it’s tough to say someplace is free.
It’s an annoying process, but it’s not that bad. There are areas in this country where it is, or worse, but it’s also nearly a continent and some change worth of people and places, so it’s hard to generalize. Police are also a locally controlled thing in the US, so it diverges more then say the post office.

Try filing a police complaint in the US, see how long you go without falling into a stop and frisk.
I have and it was easy and where I live we don’t have a stop and frisk law.
