“I personally will continue the just struggle for freedom of the press and freedom of expression, which is indispensable for the continued existence of democracy”

Dude, it was democracy that got your ass convicted.

Germany will always slide back to its modern roots. Hegel. Nietzsche, Schopenhauer.... prophets of doom. Shut up slaves. All hail the Fatherland.

I hate Europe.

Screw them. Get out if NATO. Let them defend themselves. Too busy surrendering to their Muslim overlords anyway.

When Germany unified wasn’t the communist part supposed to disappear?

Some philosopher once said that if you give the American people and the German people a choice between chaos or injustice that the Americans would prefer chaos over injustice, and the Germans would choose injustice over chaos.
A very strong authoritarian streak has always run through German culture going back centuries, as in; ‘do as you’re told or suffer the consequences’.

Oddly enough, the Japanese have an ancient saying “… the nail that sticks up gets hammered down …”. They’re very strong on conformity.
Maybe that explains, at least in small part anyway, being culturally simpatico with the Germans and their joining ranks against America 85 years ago.

They’re afraid of freedom, including freedom of thought and the freedom of expression.
Both cultures have a great deal in common with America’s political left.

The attempt to put President Trump in prison to prevent his return to power is a perfect example, and very similar to the jailing of this German journalist.

I’m beginning to think that the only hope to save Europe from itself is another D - Day Invasion, this time to defeat the communist leaders of the European Union.
It will never happen of course, but they’re so far gone that Europe is no longer Europe, and the distinct cultural differences of each nation has morphed into an unrecognizable heap of inescapable liberal horseshit.

Shameful treason.

Imagine if she had posted some memes with Bible verses

That will eventually be outlawed

And a few will cheer....

Many places in Europe already outlaw the Bible and Christianity.

The Bible condemns the two holiest sacraments of the liberal left, homosexuality and abortion.

The international political left sees Christian beliefs as the greatest existential threat that must be eradicated.

Biden’s DOJ targeted conservative Catholics for this very reason.

Leftism everywhere must be crushed politically, meaning permanently discredited and impotent, without power.

Christianity is the foundation and rock that the West was built upon.

Without it, Western Civilization and freedom will disappear, probably for all time.
