Not really. Communist Party and National Party is banned from Qasarastan, remembering their infamy in past. Qasarastan also banning party that represent atheistic/pro-LGBT ideologies.
Can people ridicule the government in a way that's unharmful?
Actually, it's very limited. "Ridicule" isn't something normal here, especially if followed with "Government". If you mean something like South Park, or depicting Imam Hamid like the pig with big boobs, then no. But if just criticize some of our policies, well, that's okay.
Can people criticize the government through media?
Yes, as long as it isn't go to "So let's hang the motherfuck Imam yeah!".

No, slavery is declared illegal, even since the British Colonization.

Nice Little Quotes
“Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together.”
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Yet human intelligence has another force, too: the sense of urgency that gives human smarts their drive. Perhaps our intelligence is not just ended by our mortality; to a great degree, it is our mortality.
-Adam Gopnik

Fighting for peace, is like fucking for chastity

What is the full name of your nation? The Unequivocal Ideology of Worldwide Destruction (More culture; less country)
Does your country allow abortion and euthanasia? Yes
Is capital punishment allowed in your country? Yes
Give a number of executions held every year: 2,500
Does your country use torture to expose secrets from criminals? Yes
Is it used to exercise political re-education? No
Describe how jails look in your country. Jails are relatively unseen, as the culture sees conflict as evolution, and through committing and defending against crime, people evolve. However, some small institutions that are simple concrete buildings with torture devices, firing squads, and cremation ovens do exist
Is slavery allowed in your nation? Indentured servitude, not slavery
Do people have the right to believe in any religion? Yes, but the culture almost requires that conflict be essential to the individual's existence.
Do people have the right to NOT believe in any religion? Yes
Do people have the right to change religion? Yes
Do your country's people have the right to be heard by an impartial tribunal? Court cases are almost nonexistent, though when a court of law must be held (mostly due to corporate events), a jury is always composed of literate citizens.
Do your country's people have the right to a public hearing? Sway us.
Do your country's people have the right to interpretation? If you have no brothers of language, you shall not be heard.
Can your country's people have the right to speak without interference? Yes
Does your country's government respect citizens' private lives? Yes, the people are free to do whatever they wish in the pursuit of self-improvement.
Do your country's people have the right to get healthy food and clean water? Depending on where they live, food and water may be easily accessible (mostly in urban centers), however, it is not a right, and one must pay for their survival in the only way that is universally accepted: currency.
