    You can be placed on a watch list for many things, even seemingly mundane things. It just depends on which three letter agency is feeling the most paranoid at the given moment.

    You can’t get arrested or charged for exercising your right to free speech in the US. What you can get arrested and charged for is plotting to overthrow the government. 18 U.S. CODE § 2381

    Discussing the benefits of anarchism or generally advocating for a move in that direction, without planning or participating in a coupé, is not a crime. Coming up with a plan to violently revolt and destroy the government is a crime. There are nonviolent ways of achieving political change.
