Berlin’s immigration authorities are moving to deport four young foreign residents on allegations related to participation in protests against Israel’s war on Gaza, an unprecedented move that raises serious concerns over civil liberties in Germany.

The deportation orders, issued under German migration law, were made amid political pressure and over internal objections from the head of the state of Berlin’s immigration agency.

The internal strife arose because three of those targeted for deportation are citizens of European Union member states who normally enjoy freedom of movement between E.U. countries. None of the four has been convicted of any crimes.

“What we’re seeing here is straight out of the far right’s playbook,” said Alexander Gorski, a lawyer representing two of the protesters. “You can see it in the U.S. and Germany, too: Political dissent is silenced by targeting the migration status of protesters.”

Ah sorry, I didn’t realize being trans gives you a free pass for spreading political propaganda but I know better now.

Actually I think it’s kind of patronizing to say that trans people just can’t help themselves from posting shit like that because of their circumstances.

Trans people probably can't help themselves from responding to Democrat apologia when most of the things Trump is doing were first legitimized by Democrats either in speech or action.

Okay buddy, American far left accelerationists working hand in hand with the alt right to dismantle democracy will never not be funny from an outside perspective.

You’re beginning to see the regime you brought on but instead of owning up to it, you blame it on milquetoast technocrats like Kamala Harris lmao.

Ahhh yes it's the far left that's working hand in hand with the fascists not the Democrats who are currently rubber stamping things like Trump's cabinet picks, the Laken Riley act, and even the recent spending bill that just barley managed to limp over the edge thanks to, you guessed, the Democrats!

You're actually just blue MAGA, you somehow make fun of Red Hats for still blaming Biden for everything while blaming the boogyman leftist for your parties failures.

It'd be hilarious how you people think you're so different from Republicans if I didn't have to deal with the reality of your representatives working with fascists to dismantle OUR rights.

Lmao, you were presented with a classic trolley problem and you failed it. Now it’s everyone’s fault but yours. Good luck in the impending fascist regime, I’m sure boycotting Kamala was worth it!

I appreciate that you're unable to refute any of what I said, doubled down on blaming others, and assumed my vote all in one message. Even more on brand of you doing all that with a condescending tone.

You do nothing productive other then vote for your team, point fingers at everyone when you fail, and are unwilling, or more likely unable, to engage with anything that doesn't fit your world view or threatens to scrutinize it.

You truly are a Republican with a blue badge, bravo.

Edit: they continue to prove every point I make lol

So unable to. Thanks for verifying.

Edit: still unable

There is nothing to refute you dumbfuck ameritard. If you think Democrats are just as worse as Trump Republicans then you deserve everything that’s coming.

[-] VanillaFrosty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Aha so you're German! Think of the US Democrats as the social Democrats who signed off on the enabling act in your home country. Hopefully you're not too retarded for that comparison.

Also the irony of saying enjoy fascism as your country deports legal citizens for protesting Israel lol

Except that they’re making perfect sense and you’re simply calling it political propaganda because it doesn’t fit into your world view. There’s nothing to patronize because it’s a perfectly sane take, you’re the one trying to gaslight us here.

Alright buddy, good luck in life!
