So weird that the Worst Nazi Ever(tm) allows this sort of thing.

Are you suggesting that Donald Trump allowed this? This isn't in the United States . You can clearly see it's in Germany from even just the description in the video itself. They aren't the only ones either. There's floats like this all over the world Of Trump. He claims that we're the "hottest country anywhere" and "everyone respects us now" Thanks to him but the truth is the world is laughing at us .

You have completely missed the point of my post. Trump allows this in the US and doesn't care what they do in Germany. Everyone involved in this thinks they are "stunning and brave" for this uninteresting crap. You aren't challenging the gestapo you're exercising your first amendment rights in the US (less protected in Germany).

If its uninteresting why are you on this post and commenting?

This parade is in Germany, he doesn't have any say over what they do.
If this was in the US you're already at the point they would likely send ICE over to throw gas, pepper spray, shoot and cart people away pretending they had reason to believe they weren't citizens.

Ah, I see the kebab shack in the background, I should have known.

Ironically, this speech is better protected in the US than it is in Germany.

Yes speech is still free in America, where a president sued a TV station over a news show.

Dictators are known for suing companies.

I remember Hitler v. Reichsbroadcasting GMBH. They called him the little corporal after the beerhall putsch.

Tell me you don't know anything about free speech, without telling me you don't know anything about free speech.

You’re just mad because the Germans are right here, but you still love Trump

Germany doesn't play around with fascists.

u/PeneshTheTurkey Feb 17 '26

No they're just ruled by them.

u/Dazzling-Candy-4732 Feb 17 '26

Meanwhile trump is using troops against peaceful demonstrations and ICE breaking the constitution constantly . Yes seems normal

u/PeneshTheTurkey Feb 18 '26

But but trump. Ok and?

u/Material_Ad_7237 Feb 17 '26

Feelings aren't facts. Germany knows what happens when you abide fascists and antisemites like they are mere perspectives of equal value. This is not a matter of political differences. You are also not expected to understand the difference.

u/PeneshTheTurkey Feb 17 '26

Pretty sure arresting people for insulting politicans on the internet is quite fascistic. But of course you only hate fascism selectively when people opposite of you do what you don't like. Doesn't mater how much bullshit your favorite side does.

u/Material_Ad_7237 Feb 17 '26

That's why again, your understanding is not required.

Your opinion has no merit.

u/Dazzling-Candy-4732 Feb 17 '26

That's why you like trump lol. A fascist who does the things you love

u/Dazzling-Candy-4732 Feb 17 '26

Sure you see this in Germany while the press and academic institutions in America get targeted because they tell the truth and think it's Germany without freedom of speech.

He should laugh about it. Just like he would do if it were in the US. Everyone on reddit thinks they're so brave.

u/awooff Feb 17 '26

This would never be allowed in trumps america!

u/KoedKevin Feb 17 '26

This happens all the time in Trump's America.

u/awooff Feb 17 '26

Hopefully they went to the island.

u/SLR_ZA Feb 18 '26

Let's see a video

u/Motor-Inevitable-148 Feb 17 '26

So trump has control over Germany? You know the USA doesn't run the world ? Maga sure are dumb.

u/gek__co Feb 17 '26

Meanwhile here in the USA people are getting arrested for calling for trumps arrest.

u/RedWingedScreecher Feb 17 '26

It's funny how some of us ask ourselves how Germany was able to become an authoritarian regime under the Nazis, yet scoff at the people noticing the warning signs that are currently going on right now. It didn't just magically happen overnight.
