I thought that libel tourism was basically a UK thing, which doesn't have a law against Holocaust denial.

I guess I'm saying:

  • Different nations can have different Schelling fences
  • Some nations can establish Schelling fences and others can be on slippery slopes. The strategy of the nations with Schelling fences would depend on the extent to which they care about the other nations.
