    Is it safe for you to say this? If you say something they don’t like, they could do the same to you, no charge, no trial.

    Who is this they you are talking about? It sounds like antisemitism.

    And yes its safe for me to say. I think not having ties with Russian state propaganda for living normally is a risk I’m willing to take, as its no effort for me.

    All these other speculations you’re pointing to you would have to prove to me first.

      Your fucking government, dumbass. The EU. The people implementing the policy in question. I know y’all act like any criticism of the Israeli government is antisemitic, but does that protection now extend to any criticism of the EU?

      I think not having ties with Russian state propaganda for living normally is a risk I’m willing to take, as its no effort for me.

      Nothing to hide so you have nothing to fear, eh? Yeah, millions of Americans were fine with our government using extralegal punishments and detentions because they thought it would be limited to terrorists. Now we’re being dragged away to secret torture dungeons in El Salvador.

      But fortunately, I’m sure that nothing bad will come of European governments having the tools to punish people without charge or trial. I mean, honestly, what do you even need rights for? Just trust the people in charge to sort out the good guys and the bad guys.

      Say, unrelated, but how’s the AFD doing these days? And, purely hypothetically, if they got into government, how would you feel about them having a precedent that would allow them to apply these punishments to anyone they consider to have engaged in wrongthink?

      All these other speculations you’re pointing to you would have to prove to me first.

      What speculations would I have to prove? That domestic polls are unreliable?

      I’ve seen a lot of people dismiss domestic polls in China that show overwhelming support for the government as unreliable. I’ve never seen one of them feel the need to prove it, or present a shred of evidence. In fact, when outside polls have confirmed those results, they just say that they’re all “brainwashed” or “propagandized.”

      Not quite as fun when it’s your people’s perspective that’s being written off, is it?

      Your government, you fucking dipshit.

      Fucking genocide enthusiasts, the Germans, now using claims of antisemitism to shut down any criticism of an ongoing genocide. It’s in your fucking blood I swear.
