Ja! Tócate los cojones, Mariloli! Free press: when you can't even record the police, it's illegal (kind of, in theory. Absolutely forbidden in practice). Freedom of speech: unless it's against the Crown, or the Church, or national unity, or... Independent courts: independent from fairness, and the truth? Sure. Independent from the establishment's power? Not at all. So, yes, you're too privileged to care for any of this, but worry not, amigo, those privileges are being transferred upwards so (unless you're part of the top elite) you'll care soon enough. We don't have anything to envy the USA or China (on these matters). I've been there, not as a tourist, so it's not hearsay.
