Germany is undergoing what a typical US public school goes through: the anti-bullying rules are so easy for bullies to metagame that they serve the bully once the bully masters the rules.

This was going to be the end result all along wasn’t it?

An acquaintance of mine (half swede, half filipino) got fired for calling his ex ‘white trash’, the crazy fuck reported it to his Portland based company. I’m not condoning the behavior (I actually hate the guy) but would he really have received the same punishment if he had said the asian slur, or the nword? Somehow, I don’t think so. For every instance of some highly publicised ‘cancellation’, there’s probably 2x as many ‘untouchables’ being railroaded for just a hint of violation of those same rules.

It's ilegal to call German cops nazis because, if you do, they are legally obligated to start acting like nazis, which is ilegal

You see Hans, it's okay to be a Nazi, but it's only against Palestinian people, remember that.

I have a friend who attended an action in Germany where some cops were beating some of the protestors, I think it was a woman but I can't remember anymore. My friend said he told them, "You act just like American cops!" and the cops were really hurt by it and began to console one another.

Moral of the story: Call them Americans, it hurts their ego more. Nazi is just a fact.
