Dude wouldn't have DARED to talk like that in Iran. I've noticed this is a recurring tactic of fascists: Say, with impunity, lots of things that would get them jailed in a dictatorship (and maybe tortured), and simultaneously call the place a dictatorship.
For extra credit, they often deliberately violate the law in a way which would get them punished no matter where they were, but fairly mildly because it's not a dictatorship, and then claim it is because of their speech, which it bloody well isn't.
