Do European countries arrest foreign tourists for offensive social media posts?

I am American, and as an American, we have free speech. I use my freedom of speech to say things on X, on an account that is not linked to my real name, that would be considered by some to be offensive. I say things that are anti-immigrant and occasionally racist. It's my right to feel that way and to say how I feel. However, I know that freedom of speech does not exist in Europe. I am planning a trip that starts in the Netherlands and ends in Germany before flying back. I have never been outside of America before. I am worried that they'll be able to detect my app on my phone, read my posts, and try to punish me for my posts.

How do I avoid this? Should I never open X at all while I'm over there? Should I delete the app from my phone before I fly over? Are people in those countries allowed to use 4chan? I don't know how to navigate in a country without the first amendment. I don't plan to say anything offensive in public, I just want to have a good time.

America arrests people all the time for offensive social media posts. Even if someone in your WhatsApp group chat shared a JD Vance meme you will get arrested and deported. There is no free speech in Trump's America.

Every country that requires a visa vets your social media now. I doubt it really matters unless you have a relatively large reach on whatever site you use.

>>2892205
Not having social media basically bypasses all free speech laws
Posting that you hate niggers on /pol/ is safe because they need to subpoena to get your IP but by the time they go through the process your post is archived off the board and they cant get it

>imagine being so gullible to actually believe this nonsense
Sometimes I really wish lib/socalist/commie Americucks could be deported to the 3rd world so they would realize how good they have it here (and so privileged they can afford to pretend about this sort of shit).

No country I've been to asks about social media. Not even China gives a shit. America is the only place that cares about

In the Netherlands there is even a prison colony for Americans who commit wrongspeech specifically called America.

No bro we literally ACTUALLY get arrested in Europe for naughty words, it's not a meme.

>>2892241
They don't know how bad it really is. A complete inverse to the dialogue 20 years ago
>American: We have freedom of speech
>European: We can say what we want to
>American: NO we actually have freedom of speech
>European: It's not that important if I can say what I want anyway
>American: Good luck

Don't attach personally identifiable information to your radical posts. Don't post from a personally identifiable cell data connection. Post from anonymous WiFi if possible.

>>2892224
They don't ask, they just do a background check. And they can find your anon accounts through your isp as well. Watch what you say on the internet

Elaborate on your logic mate. You think going to the gym will stop the police arresting me when a darkie murders someone? Maybe
But what about my mum.
