This is where the propaganda machine you swallowed fails. You could bad mouth Tito there, or the government, many people did and they weren't put in jail or executed. Tito only jailed or executed, the butchers of Ustasha who were a nazi group that would go around butchering up civilians with knives. And yes you could have as much if not more freedom. All socialism means, is workers control over production. That was in there in SFRJ. Socialism is not this scary dark place of doom like you make it out to be lol.
