There are a number of outright lies in this article. For example, Pirinccis quote has been maliciously taken out of context to give the impression, Pirincci wanted to send asylum seekers to concentration camps. If you read the quote in context, it is obvious that he is insinuating that the liberal Pegida haters wanted to send government critics (like him) to concentration camps.

It is still an interesting read.

As the postwar consensus that has ruled Europe dissolves, the brown will once again rejoin the red and the black in European extremism.

The only “hate problem” is the hate people like Merkel and other elected officials have for Germany by allowing Jihadist hordes en masse whose ideology is utterly incompatible with western and Judeo-Christian values and bring in nothing but violence, mayhem, destruction and looting (of the state coffers) when nothing positive is received in return. It is high treason at best and complete insanity at worst, with it not being mutually exclusive.

There are a number of outright lies in this article.

I haven't read the article (yet), but my first thought on seeing the headline was, no, Germany has a problem with lying media (and politicians, but that's expected).

Residual guilt. Sometimes you just have to fight back.

This article is revealing of how the left operates in Germany as it does in America by resort to the following propaganda tactics:

1. Resort to anecdotal evidence which, of course, opens the whole fact-finding process to distortion.

2. Resort to name-calling i.e. "xenophobic," "far right," "neo-Nazi" etc. which are replete with in this article.

3. Exaggeration.

These and many more demagogic techniques are deployed to establish a predicate for the government to control expression of opinion, the very thing our First Amendment is designed to prevent. Time and again the authors complain of the ineffectual measures, or complete absence of measures, taken by the government to interdict and even criminalize free speech. Note how threats of physical violence are neatly conflated with arguments against open borders.

Were politicians bored?

Is that why they set policies that would create problems so that they could exert more control over the people?

Or maybe they just wanted more control? more power?

Create problems so that they can have more control in the name of security?

Truly Orwellian. Their love of country is being called hate.

We are seeing here the same thing as happening in Israel. Those who seek to defend themselves against the homicidal violence of Islam and labeled “haters” and branded terrorists themselves.

Hate, like anger, often stems from fear. If the fear is valid, the hate/anger are also valid....

Defending yourself from invaders is hate?

Why did Germany vote for Merkel, a product of East Germany? The background of a leader is crucial to how they will lead, as the USA has learned by Obama’s disastrous reign.

Most people don’t hate unless given a reason to. Just sayin’.

[IronJack]

They are absolutely right to be “hating.” When tinhorn politicians sell out their safety, security, and integrity to a swarm of ingrates, who would not be angry?

[combat_boots]

Seems to me that Germany has a no sense of self-defense problem.

[zzwhale]

GERMAN HATE PROBLEM.... yes, just like the USSA has with COMMIE OBAMA
the government is going against the rights and will OF THE PEOPLE...
the people have the right to vote em out or physically remove them...

[SaraJohnson]

Disagree with the lefty globalists and you are a hater. Get used to it Germany. We are used to being called haters in America. Who cares.
