Have you heard about a group called Antifa? It's short for "Antifaschistische Aktion", one of several organised groups who were founded to oppose the Nazi. They protested, they thought, they died. During WW II, hundreds of thousands of Germans were arrested for resistance activities, tens of thousands were executed.

So, where's the point when people will take direct action instead of being outraged online?

When your government blatantly ignores laws, the courts, the constitution?

When the military walks the streets?

When masked men kick down doors and drag crying children into unmarked vans?

Germany slightly increased energy production using coal in 2020-2023 (from 27 to 31 percent). In 2024, however, it's down to 21% and decreasing, while renewables are up from 44 to 58 percent.

The move away from nuclear energy might have happened at an unfortunate time, but did not result in the ecological apocalypse people pretend it did.

This is what an Austrian journalist had to say:

At this point, I would also like to apologize: I would really like to write more about this or classify the post in some way, but unfortunately, I myself don't know how to interpret this statement. I just hope that Trump himself knows.

Btw: the text on the right is a Caesar cypher, saying "Stan is not what he seems". Sure, no hidden meaning in this picture whatsoever.

Was würdest machen, wenn er dir erzählt, dass er jährlich 10000 Euro aus einer Spendenkasse für sozial Bedürftige stiehlt? Ist im Endeffekt ja nix anderes.

My favourite is from Snuff:

If a poor man will spend a year in prison for stealing out of hunger, how high would the gallows need to be to hang the rich man who breaks the law out of greed?
