German Govt Hires Ex-Stasi Agent To Patrol Facebook For ‘Xenophobic’ Comments
Breitbart ^ | 12/17/2015 | Donna Edmunds

An organisation run by a former Stasi agent has been recruited by the German government to patrol Facebook in a bid to stamp out “xenophobic” comments. Those caught posting material that the government disagrees with are likely to face criminal prosecution.

Germany is set to welcome one million new immigrants this year, a move that has not been without controversy. Determined to see his fellow Germans embrace their new multicultural homeland, Justice Minister Heiko Maas has decided to crack down on those citizens who criticise the influx, especially those who take to their own private Facebook accounts to do so.

Maas has recruited the help of an organisation – Network Against Nazis (Netz Gegen Nazis, or NAN) – to aid him in his crackdown. NAN was founded by, and according to it’s website works in partnership with, the Amaedu Antonio Foundation, run by Anetta Kahane, who between 1974 and 1982 worked for the Stasi under the code name ‘Victoria’.

Last week Maas wrote to Richard Allen, Facebook’s public policy director, who is based in Dublin, to complain that not enough was being done to root out “xenophobic” comments on the social media site, Deutsche Welle reported.....

This article is from last year but it shows the extent to which Merkel’s Government will go to push it’s Islamic Immigration policy onto the German people. Former Stasi agent Anetta Kahane is a real piece of work....

The candidate with the most relevant experience was hired, obviously.

And Reagan was so right when he said that freedom has to be won by every generation.

Or: "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."

“Lives Of Others”. A Rush Limbaugh and NurdlyPeon recommended movie. Looks like Germany is coming full circle.

The Wall coming down was, I regret to say, a BIG MISTAKE. It DUMPED millions of communized brainless German twits into the German Republic.

Like a dog to its vomit, they have returned to their fold.

Hmmm... maybe we should assemble a list of nice German Facebook pages where we can post our xenophobic comments and memes?

Maybe we can just post the video of drug-crazed and drunk, half-naked fat cow Angela Merkel dirty dancing?

If you want to post it into Facebook or Twitter, simply copy and paste this:

National Socialist. International Socialist.
Not a heck of a lot of difference there.

It also freed a lot of Germans who knew exactly how bad socialism/communism was. Maybe there were more of the former than the latter, but the real problem was that West and especially the conservatives thought the battle had been won.

The ideological battle is never won, as I quoted Reagan above. Unfortunately, he was no longer at the helm, and GH Bush did not understand that part of the Cold War. And let us not forget the treason in the British Conservative party only a year later. John Major was no Lady Thatcher by any means.

The Xenophobia nonsense is a cover. The government is criminalizing political opposition.

Nearly every “anti-nazi” or “anti-fascist” organization is run by hardcore communists. That way, they appoint themselves as gatekeepers who can designate any right wing opposition as “nazi” or “fascist” to delegitimize them.

This holds true from street-level anti-nazi skinheads, to anarchist “antifa” groups, up to business-suit clad groups like the ADL or SPLC.
