The Germans think they can partner with the muslims in order to accomplish their goal. It will not end well...for the Germans.

Social media companies are obliged to delete or block any online "criminal offenses" such as libel, slander, defamation or incitement, within 24 hours of receipt of a user complaint -- regardless of whether or the content is accurate or not.

Well, I guess anyone can play. Let's all complain about the leftist propaganda -- they'll have to take it down. Start with anything from Der Spiegel.

I have never trusted any German I have met in Canada. They all have the same pat story of “my father was a conscientious objector who opposed Hitler”. I call BS. The German people have never fully owned up to their Nazi past. They want to kill free speech as much to bury their own past as to defend another anti-Jewish culture - islam.

Seems to me, Spain had this problem several decades ago.
They came to their senses at the time and threw the mooselimb turds the hell out.
Germans are famous for lining up and doing what they are told.
Americans are famous for telling you to take you line and shove it.

Darkness descents on Western Europe.

Will Eastern Europe keeps the lights on?

A top priority here in the USA, if we were smart, would be to get rid of hate crime laws. Once you concede that hate crimes exists (and they do, but deal with that at sentencing) hate speech laws are not far behind.

The Germans have been a problem ever since the days of the Roman Republic. I thought we finally domesticated them after WW2. Apparently not, turns out Eisenhower was no MacArthur.

“”In the UK, Prime Minister Theresa May also said that she will tell internet firms to tackle extremist content:

Industry needs to go further and faster in automating the detection and removal of terrorist content online... ultimately it is not just the terrorists themselves who we need to defeat. It is the extremist ideologies that fuel them. It is the ideologies that preach hatred, sow division and undermine our common humanity. We must be far more robust in identifying these ideologies and defeating them — across all parts of our societies.””

I don’t see her statement as the same as what Germany is doing/proposing. I read it as preventing or at least attempting to prevent the spread of extremist ideology on social media. How can that be compared to jailing someone who posted a picture of the Mufti with Hitler?

I think the sooner we accept this as their goal, the less time we will have to slam our heads into brick walls every day. It’s not a pleasant or welcome thought but aren’t we fooling ourselves that they haven’t achieved the upper hand? SOMEONE elected obozo to the office of the presidency - SOMEONE wanted to elect Hillary to the same position. Those someones have not gone away - they are still out there working to finish the job.

::Same groups, same objective, same methods, just called Antifa, BLM, Anarchist, Socialist International, Democratic Socialist of America, Soros’s Open Society Foundation, and many other subgroups::

They somehow have the persistence, perseverance and time that the rest of us do not have. I guess these groups are made up of people who don’t need to work for a living when they are financed by the most evil of humans imaginable. If we could pick Soros off, would it all go away? I don’t know but I wish it would happen!!!

Wouldn’t take them long to assemble a new one out of the other EU countries’ forces. They’ve been adding the militaries of countries like the Netherlands and Czech Republic to the Bundeswehr of late. There’s also a central command structure in Brussels.

When did Europe ever have free speech. It’s a myth.

  1. Every person shall have the right freely to express and disseminate his opinions in speech, writing and pictures, and to inform himself without hindrance from generally accessible sources. Freedom of the press and freedom of reporting by means of broadcasts and films shall be guaranteed. There shall be no censorship.

  2. These rights shall find their limits in the provisions of general laws, in provisions for the protection of young persons, and in the right to personal honor.

  3. Arts and sciences, research and teaching shall be free. The freedom of teaching shall not release any person from allegiance to the constitution.
German Basic Law, Article 5
Second clause nullifies the first. Never mind the lack of “negative liberty” format, where the government cannot ever take away any rights.

... fighting "Islamophobia" is now a higher priority than fighting terrorism?

Germans caused World War I and II... they're probably going to be behind World War III.
