Germany is behaving too much like the old Germany.

History doesn't repeat, it just rhymes, but the rhyme is terrible. If you wrote this in a book prior would say it was too much.

I can't put it in words, here's pictures and quotes…

The German capital has the largest Palestinian population in Europe and has been a flashpoint for the conflict since the October 7 atrocity, with pro-Palestine protests being initially banned and protesters arrested. Germany’s government is a strong supporter of Israel, with Israel’s security sometimes described as part of Germany’s Staatsräson or reason of state.

A vote passed in the state senate with the support of the ruling Christian Democrat and Social Democrat grand coalition and the far-Right AfD. The state parliament also wants to assist in passing the law on a federal level.

text with some bits highlighted

The National Federation of Persecutees of the Nazi Regime, Resistance Fighters and Antifascists, the VVN-BDA, has accused politicians of "historical amnesia." The body has also attacked Berlin's city representatives for engaging in knee-jerk politics in the fight against antisemitism and enmity toward Israel. At the same time, the VVN-BDA expressed horror at the symbol's "misuse."

From the mid-1930s, political prisoners were forced to wear cloth badges with the triangle in Nazi concentration camps. It was part of an extensive dehumanizing classification system.

"At first, the majority of political inmates were German Social Democrats or Communists and the red of the triangle referred to their party colors," Jens-Christian Wagner, the director of the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Memorials Foundation, told DW.

Later, he explained, most were non-Germans from across the political spectrum who had opposed National Socialism or Nazi Germany's occupation of their countries.

underlined: occupation of their countries.

On May 1st 1890 in Paris, left-wing activists wore a red triangle:
🔻
One for 8 hours work,
one for 8 hours leisure,
one for 8 hours rest.
