The post is factual, but intentionally misleading. It suggests Kier Starmer is leading a crackdown on free speech using Andrew McIntyre's conviction as an example. However his social media posts were direct calls to violence, which is illegal in many countries. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cr56g4v28g7o https://www.icnl.org/anti-riot-laws-in-the-united-states#:~:text=A%20person%20commits%20the%20crime%20of%20inciting%20to%20riot%20if,of%20public%20terror%20or%20alarm.
