  • Okay, but you’re misinformed and trying to prove a point that’s just not related to the report linked in this thread. If you were interested in if this statistic is useful and what information is contained in it, you’d just translate some pages and read before making wild assumptions based on nothing but your ideology.

    Yes, violence does not constitute the major part of felonies mentioned in the report. 37% are property damage and “propaganda offences” = using anti-constitutional symbols like swastikas, etc. A further 40% are insults, intimidation, coercion, incitement of violence, etc. And this has nothing to do with hate speech laws. It’s not the state who’s suing here but people who have been insulted, intimidated, etc. and it’s of course very much their right to sue in this case.










  • If you think Russia can never be trusted you’d have to say the same about the other countries failing their security obligations. Those who guaranteed Ukraines territorial integrity, the US, the UK, didn’t act and send their own troops to stop the invasion.

    IMO the friendly way hasn’t been tried as NATO also didn’t care about how Russia feels about this and that. The story is well known. There’s not a single country or single person to blame but many of the involved actors.

    To me it’s lunacy to think Russia will be defeated and split up. Who’s going to defeat them? With which soldiers? Europe is an old continent, there are so few young people… It would be the final demise of the European economy having to fight a war with Russia. And do you consider the risks? Russia has nukes. Before anything even remotely to the scenario of being split up happens, it will have used them. No sane person can ignore this threat.



  • The move to expel him was utterly shameful. A lot of smart people ridicule pacifists and people believing in peace through trade etc. They should be ashamed. Schröder was a great chancellor and he should be praised for a lot of good decisions during his tenure. His vision to position Germany and Europe in the middle between the US and Russia was farsighted, still is today. He kept Germany out of the Iraq war, turned out he was very right about that. He also fostered a shift towards renewable energy.

    A lot of good could be said about his years as chancellor yet smug online “experts” on foreign policy of course know everything much better lmao.
