Ah, no wonder I missed it. Here in MAGAland our government is making bolder threats to its own citizenry than saying they have "surprises" for us that don't agree with them! Our media in general has been pretty graphically violent my whole life. I know many Europeans tease us that we can depict so much graphic violence but can't handle mild nudity.

Thanks for filling me in on the names also. It seems left extremism is globably clamped down on harder than right extremism. I think of so-called eco-terrorists that get punished more harshly than corporate and industrial polluters that hurt and kill many times more people.

An individual in Connewitz, Leipzig, named Tobias N. was attacked with hammers and suffered a broken skull, the treatment of which required surgery and metal plates. He was wearing a hat with far-right symbolism. He later claimed that he was no longer active in the far-right scene, and that the hat was an old part of his wardrobe.

German fashion police are no joke! ๐Ÿ˜†
