The German state of Baden-Württemberg's deputy speaker stepped down after admitting he drew a swastika on a ballot beside an AfD lawmaker's name. Daniel Born said he had made a "serious mistake" during a vote.
How does one discern support or protest. 2 people can stand on the street holding a sign with a sign with a politicians face and a swastika background.
One could mean this is a NAZI, don’t vote for him.
The other could mean this is a NAZI, vote for him.
Politician says oh I don’t identify as a Nazi 😉, at their rallies and you legally have a Nazi party running openly again.
Note, obviously you could hang flags and banners on your house, business, etc… because it is just saying that guy is a spade.
The big deal is that he broke the law. In some countries that’s the end of a political career.
Sadly Germany only seems to be one of those coutries of you’re not on the right.
Seems like he should stay in goverment and fix the law then. Identifying nazis as nazis should not be a crime.
When is half of the Bundestag stepping down then? They broke all sorts of rules but sometimes got rewarded instead.
Seems like pretty stupid law, feels like this is the type of speech that should be protected
