CBS Teams Up With German Police for Raid Over a Meme
Citizen Watch Report ^ | Alex Mark

Posted on 02/17/2025 4:49:23 AM PST by davikkm

Imagine waking up at dawn to six armed officers storming your home—not for drugs, not for weapons, but for posting a meme. That’s exactly what happened in northwest Germany, and CBS was there, cameras rolling, treating it like some noble act of justice. This isn’t journalism. This is collaboration with tyranny.

The suspect’s crime? Sharing a so-called "racist" cartoon online. German authorities, operating under their draconian hate speech laws, seized his laptop and cellphone, claiming these devices were used to spread "hate." Fifty homes were raided that day. Fifty people had their doors kicked in. For words.

Germany’s speech laws, originally designed to prevent another Nazi rise, have now veered into outright authoritarianism. They claim to fight extremism but use Nazi-style tactics to silence dissent. Meanwhile, CBS, rather than questioning this insanity, gleefully played along, presenting this as some noble pursuit of justice.

Hopefully it’s the European public coming for the Deep States that have bankrupted them.

If not, if the public continues to submit after what it’s learning...

Just be very glad there’s an ocean between them and us.

If people bother to think about it, Trump’s interest in Greenland makes a bleep of a lot sense.

It’s against the law to insult someone there. Can you imagine if the US arrested people for calling Elon or Trump a “Nazi”?

If I’m right, that EU emergency meeting today isn’t really about Ukraine.

It’s about their US cash cow going dry.

Oh, to be a fly in the wall...

I suppose its too much to hope we have the venue bugged six ways from Sunday...

As much as the ruling class and Catholic prelates in Germany may deserve it, I hope the people don’t go the Jacobin route when they finally wake up to the reality of how they have been betrayed.

The worst mistake that the Russians ever made was losing East Germany. That may come back to bite all of us.

Disarmed the population first and now going after their free speech. There would be less of this if the police were afraid they may not come home that night.

Perhaps it’s time to dissolve Germany. Give it to the French that screw both nations

VP Vance nailed it. And the tepid applause was because they know the censorship is well known.

Would have helped if the article had detailed the contents of the meme for those without the time to chase them down.

Maybe Margaret Brennan was right? Because this is how free speech leads to a holocaust...

How did we get allied with these dictators-in-training in a war against Russia?

From 5 years ago, another reason the Europeans are freaking out...

America is subsidizing Europe’s socialist medicine — with higher drug prices here

The Canadians, too, BTW.

Agree about Greenland. This could become the western hemisphere century if the countries can work together. Mexico if it ends its criminal rulers. Canada .... perhaps.
