Europe community on dbzer0. Intended to be a place to discuss European news, politics, or just general topics from a European perspective. Since this is on dbzer0 expect the community to lean more leftist-anarchist but a wide range of views are accepted here (within reason).

Rules:

1. No Bigotry or Hate SpeechAny forms of Homophobia, Transphobia, Queerphobia, Racism, or Ableism will be met with swift and harsh action and will not be tolerated here whatsoever. Bigots will be banned immediately on-sight. This includes apologia of it. Trying to be politely or intellectually bigoted i.e. "Just asking questions" won't be tolerated.

2. No ZionismAny forms of Zionism or Zionist rhetoric will not be tolerated here, this includes Zionist apologia, accusations of antisemitism towards anti-Zionists, or blatant denial or downplaying of the genocide towards Palestinians. Any attempt to uphold or prop up the IHRA definition of antisemitism, will be treated as Zionism. Anyone engaging in Pro-Zionist sentiment or apologia will be actioned in accordance with its severity.

Note: Trying to find loopholes or whataboutery to see what is or isn't genocide denial or Zionism will be treated as a violation of this rule. Don't test us.

3. Stay CivilPlease maintain civil discourse in the community. Do not engage in arguments with others, name-calling, or insults. Note that calling out bigotry or Zionism is not considered an insult. In heated arguments users are encouraged to or even required to disengage failure to do so will result in mod action.

4. No MisinformationSpreading of misinformation intentionally in this community is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Spreading misinformation hurts the credibility of the community and can mislead people sometimes in dangerous ways. Users who intentionally post misinformation as articles, comment answers, or in attempt to win arguments will be actioned swiftly.

Note: This includes Russian and Chinese propaganda. Users with a history of such posting will be banned on sight.

5. No AI ContentPlease do not post articles or content primarily created using generative AI. Generative AI content may contain misinformation or be lower quality and thus is discouraged. Posts and comments featuring it will be removed. However this community does not allow or tolerate Anti-AI trolling or hostility and users who engage in such behavior will be actioned for it, additionally Anti-AI trolling violates Rule 3 and often Rule 4 so it is generally unacceptable already.


Note: Rules 1 & 2 may be subject to preemptive mod action due to their severity, and they apply to a user's entire post history. Not just this community.

Germany is revoking the citizenship of a recently naturalised man of Syrian background in Berlin after he allegedly praised Hamas on Instagram one day after receiving his German passport.

According to reports, he grew up in Berlin from early childhood, obtained German citizenship under the 2024 naturalisation rules and then posted a picture of two Hamas fighters with a Palestine flag and the caption “Heroes of Palestine” with a green heart. Security services flagged the post, and the Berlin immigration authority treated it as evidence that he had violated the declaration he had just signed; a withdrawal notice was issued and sent to his lawyer. If the decision becomes final, he will lose his German citizenship and the authorities would then have to decide in a separate procedure whether he can remain in Germany at all.

Under §35 of the German Nationality Act (StAG), citizenship can be revoked for up to ten years if it was obtained through deception. Under §10(1), applicants must declare that they support the protection of Jewish life, a commitment that administrative practice understands as including Israel’s existence.

We really gotta remove this protection for the Israeli state from our laws. People wouldnt have this done to them for saying "Russia should be dissolved" but somehow Israel is treated like this innocent place of moral perfection that could never be wrong despite the majority of its population being in favor of genocide.

If Germany ever allowed someone to support Hamas, they would get called Nazis until the end of times....

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Nobody said anything about Hamas...

But also germans wouldnt be called nazis for this. Hamas is only classified as a terrorist organization because of Israels international lobbying. All other countries just copy the Israeli governments opinion.

[–] Goodlucksil@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 16 hours ago

A. OP's article does mention Damas on the first paragraph.

B. Hamas has committed hate crimes against Zionists, which is the lowest definition of terrorism.

Germans are nothing hut filthy boot licking minions of the most vile genocidal piece of shit currently defiling the earth with its footsteps.

Prove me wrong.¹

¹oops! You fucking can't.

I'm not even going to pretend to defend the behavior of the Israeli military, government, orthodoxy, and settlers, but it is hyperbolic to claim a majority of Israelis are in favor of genocide. That just isn't true by any reasonable measure.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Polls say otherwise sadly. The majority of Israelis has repeatedly been shown to be in favor of settling all of Gaza which means erasing Gaza as it was/is and pushing out or killing its people. Thats genocide.

People have to stop looking at Israel as a normal country like any other. Israels population hasnt evolved organically over time like most others. It is largely made up of very religious people that came to Israel out of religious belief and or because their local religious groups in other countries told them that they will only be truly happy/safe once they are in Israel. This is a completely absurd demography chart. Their entire plan is population growth and expansion.

Its basically a complete ethno state filled with only the most radical religious people that were willing to give up their life to move to their divine land. There are some really good documentaries on this and its very painful to watch them.

Basically put all the anti-society assholes in one place and let them ferment in a place where the children's songs and hit pop songs have lyrics that translate from the black speech as 'exterminate the brutes' and 'rape murder defile! Rape murder defile! Fuck them in the skull and crush it under the tread of your tank! Defile everything! Violate it all! For the glory of the Jewish master race! Rape murder kill feel the fresh blood as you fuck the bullet holes in their sacred places! Tear their children's asses wide!’¹ and given them unlimited money.

Theres one way to deal with these fucking monsters; they all need to die, or they will keep doing atrocities. There's no other way at this point.

¹genuinely might rate on the charts if you translated it to the black speech and gave it a nice beat

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Can you define "they" and "them" please?

[–] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Zionists, like you, nazi scum.

Fuck you and your rape apologia.

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -2 points 1 day ago

I see you are too fired up to actually have a back and forth. Maybe some other time

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

First of all, please cite your polling sources. You cannot make such a strong claim without providing a reputable polling source.

Second, your population chart is misleading as it is only marginally more bottom heavy than the world average

2022 world population pyramid

I appreciate the argument you're making and I'm not dismissive you outright but you have not been convincing.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (1 children)

You are right i should have added some sources, but honestly i assumed that this was common knowledge for people on here at this point.

July 2025: https://www.israelhayom.com/2025/07/31/52-of-israelis-want-gaza-settlements-back/

more than half (52%) of Israelis support renewed Jewish settlement in Gaza

June 2025: https://archive.is/4ioWh This one was according to themselves not a good poll, but they quote another one done by Tel Aviv University which is still >50%

A recent poll among Israeli Jews, as reported in Haaretz, produced truly shocking results: 82 percent of respondents reportedly supported the forcible expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza, while 56 percent supported expelling Palestinian citizens of Israel.

At around the same time this poll was conducted, Tel Aviv University fielded a comprehensive, large-scale survey as part of its ongoing Israel National Election Studies research project. In that study, participants were asked whether they would support a solution for Gaza that includes transferring its population to another country or countries. Among Jewish respondents, agreement stood at 53 percent, and among the entire Israeli population – including Arab citizens – it was 45 percent.

So yes, the Israeli population is completely full of genocide supporters, especially the jewish population.

The fact that there are still so many uniformed people like you is just a testament to how deeply embedded the Israel lobby is in our media landscape. The top levels of the Israel government have been very open about how they would love to torture and kill every last palestinian on earth, but our local media apparently cant read hebrew.

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

IsraelHayom is as bad as FOX News in terms of bias and hackery while your second source very specifically talks about expulsion, not genocide. I'm not gonna suggest that forcing everyone out of Gaza is even remotely okay but it is a far, far cry from "most Israelis support exterminating everyone in Gaza".

It is frankly concerning that you have been convinced by a fear-mongering news source and a marginally related opinion piece that "most Israelis want to exterminate all Gazans". Please do better.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Expulsion is definitely genocide.

"the destruction of a nation or of an ethnic group" by means such as "the disintegration of [its] political and social institutions, of [its] culture, language, national feelings, religion, and [its] economic existence".

[–] neatchee@piefed.social 0 points 3 hours ago

Gaza is none of the things you listed there.

Moving people from Gaza to another location achieves none of the things you named.

For the record, I am NOT in favor of relocating anyone but the fuckfaced Israeli settlers in the West Bank

Still doesn't somehow mean the majority of Israelis favor genocide.

The hyperbole needs to stop.

[–] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They have made themselves into something incompatible with humanity, only for killing.

Translate some of the shit they sat on twitter, or the lyrics of their popular music. Tell me those are human once you've done that. I don't even need to direct you anywhere in particular, just feed a few random posts or songs through your translator of choice. I'll wait.

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I do not disagree with you that the government and a large contingent of Israelis fit that description. And I'm not sure why you think otherwise. No society is a monolith.

[–] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Translate a random sample of the shit they say on twitter. Random sample of their music. See how many until you find one that's not genocidal, not about their glorious rapes, not about Zionist supremacy.

Fuck even the milder swastika nazis will occasionally fantasize about fucking a lobotomized zombie tradwife instead of a bare throat hole left by a decapitation while the still living head stares on

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Would you like me to find vile Twitter posts from any particular nation or culture? it's not hard

Or would you prefer the articles about social media bots supporting netenyahu?

[–] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

You are wrong, and I wish you the fate of an average Palestinian child. I hope the Zionists dont use lube.²

²they rioted for the>r right to rape prisoners. No way they use lube.

[–] neatchee@piefed.social -2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Wishing harm on strangers isn't the strong position you seem to think it is

You just aggregated an entire national population into a single "they" and I don't think that's okay

[–] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I'm sure there exceptions in the sea of monsters, pockets of relatively clean water in the open sewer.

But the genuinely healthy ones leave. They can do that.

Look up the lyrics of their popular music and feed it into a translator. Just random samplings of songs. How many til you find one thats not genocidal? They don't do anything else, don't think anything else, are not anything else. Rape murder dominance. That us all that is left within their flesh.

We can't risk any surviving after what they've done, and I don't just mean to palestinians. Every single one. Fuck your hazbara lies.
