When political parties weaponize police services and forces, and the police willingly obey, despite violations of the constitutional rights of citizens, freedom and the rule of law are under severe threat.
Leftist fascist politicians are increasingly emboldened globally. Given the history of the Gestapo in Nazi Germany, the case of Compact magazine is even more disturbing.
Crushing freedom of speech under a jackboot is what that government is doing

“Gestapo Knocking: Elon Musk Says Germany ‘Crushing Freedom of Speech Under a Jackboot’ with Ban on ‘Compact’ Magazine,” by Richard Abelson, Gateway Pundit, July 17, 2024:
German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser (Social Democrats) ordered police to shut down the leading right-wing monthly magazine “Compact” and sent 200 armed officers to raid the home of publisher Jürgen Elsaesser Monday. Now the crackdown on free speech seems to be backfiring, however, as more and more call for Faeser’s resignation and Elon Musk chimes in.
The Gateway Pundit has reported onGermany’s “Antifa”-aligned homeland security minister Nancy Faeser, who published a comment in “Antifa” magazine 2021, which is run by a group considered “far-left” and “communist aligned” by the Bavarian secret police.
In 2022, Faeser was involved in a plot to oust Germany’s head of Cybersecurity, Arne Schönbohm, presumably for not being sufficiently pro-censorship as a conservative Christian Democrat, together with public broadcaster “comedian” Jan Böhmermann and a shadowy group of anonymous journalists who call themselves “Policy Network Analytics” on Twitter and are loosely tied to Germany’s “Media Matters”, Social Democrat donor backed “Correctiv”.

If hitler could laugh, he would be. Does the woman who ordered the raid have a mustache and hair parted down the middle?
Munchenfez says
No, but she is fat and incredibly ugly.

Could have been Goering in her last life

More likely, Goebbels
somehistory says
Thanks for the response. I’ve noticed that the evil people, are genuinely ugly, even those who may have what would be considered “nice features.”
Rarely says
I suppose there will be a trial.
BTW Each democratic country has its own definition of Freedom of Speech.

*Just appalling*. Glad to see there is a backlash against this crushing of freedom of speech, though.

The Germans seem to gravitate toward totalitarian government and it doesn’t seem to matter if it’s Fascist or Socialist.

Could it be the beer?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Maybe it’s the legendary German efficiency? ?
David M says
“Stirring hate”, or more accurately, “exposing the truth of the government’s treachery against the German people.”
࿗Infidel࿘ says
In 1989, everyone thought that East Germany became a part of West Germany, which inherited the umbrella name Germany. Today, 35 years later, it looks like precisely the opposite happened: it was East Germany that devoured not only West Germany, but the EU w/ it
Erich Honecker must be laughing in his grave

Publishing words in a Magazine that people willingly wish to read is now… spreading hate…
However standing on a street corner screaming about jihad yesterday, jihad today, jihad forever is perfectly okay in Germany today and if you disagree then you must be a racist bigoted Islamophobic evil person.
I mentioned to an old female German friend that I disagree with the teachings of the Vatican and I disagree with teachings of islam and she called me an islamophobe… No mention about the Vatican though…
Go figure…
