My name is Daniel Alman, I was born in 1971, and I’ve lived in Squirrel Hill for my entire life so far. I’m the only person in the world who matches all of those things, so there’s no doubt as to who I am.
At 8:58 in this video from “60 Minutes,” Josephine Ballon happily says, “Half of the internet users in Germany are afraid to express their political opinion.”
Josephine Ballon is an evil, authoritarian scumbag.
I dare her to have me arrested.
Thank goodness that I was

NO money to nations and no defense to nations who don’t promote our values and who don’t hold free and fair elections.
Charlie Kirk is heading to Germany in the next few weeks. He said by the time he’s done, he may need Marco Rubio to get him out.
This is what 80 years of US protection for Western Europe has produced - a set of East Germanys with better technology. US out of NATO now.
That kind of repression by the state blows back on the state bigly. It will come.
They abduct him, that’s almost am act of war.
Globalist, neo-marxists, WEF drones in Brussel are weak, scared and reactionary. They don’t have much time remaining.
That's a giveaway that you weren't German.
I saw it just a little while ago without knowing what it was.
I was actually confused, they were talking about arresting people for “spreading lies” and she was smiling. Then they started talking about how people could be arrested for posting falsehoods and she seemed even more happy.
I Kept waiting for her to start criticizing them…Never happened….SMDH.
Liberal females are truly a threat to western ideals.
It looks to me that these anti-free speech laws in Europe are mainly meant to suppress one thing: valid criticism of Islam.
If so, Europe is doubling down on stupid.
But I guess “stupid” is not quite the right word there. Because a civilization that willfully commits suicide is far more than just stupid.
Oddly it never occurred to the woman being interviewed that the most likely reason “half of the internet users in Germany are afraid to express their political opinion” is that they are afraid of being persecuted by the government and people like her for having a different opinion that the approved opinion.
Airy I should make clear I was speaking of the 60 minutes interviewer. She seemed perfectly happy with the oppression.
AfD is polling second in the upcoming German elections; I suspect they may be stronger than that because people are afraid to be outed as supporters and face government persecution.
The leftists will be shocked at the results of the election:
“But, but, we were way ahead in the polls and social media!”
> AfD is polling second in the upcoming German elections… <
I’m actually surprised the German Deep State hasn’t banned them yet.
But if the AfD continues to gain strength, perhaps the German Deep State will stage a false flag operation to “expose” the AfD as Nazis… and then ban them.
Hayek wrote about a soft fascism coming to the west in this form
The gleeful CBS interview is Sharyn Alfonsi. I’m going out on a limb and saying she is a Tylical far left, fake news. DemoRAT.
I don’t know much about her but she has some shares of decidedly ant-Maga, anti-trump posts on her social media.
She is from Mississippi. I suspect she is getting heat because her FB and X pages are very limited. Beyond that I dont have much.

China already has all of this - Censorship, Social Credit, a Totalitarian Government. The purpose of a Church in China is to report dissidents to the government.
A love of censorship is not a Western trait.
