you madman, what would possess you to willingly look at the comments of a WSJ article

i wont say who but that account is run by a beloved hexbear user lol

Even Germany won't slam you with a decade-plus sentence and you may even have grounds to seek asylum elsewhere with evidence of persecution if push comes to shove.

they came up with a way to get around this https://hexbear.net/comment/6287311

@yanisvaroufakis

It seems that our rulers, here in the 'liberal' West, have homed in on a new way of turning a person into a non-person. Here is a man, Hüseyin Doğru, a German journalist (of Turkish origins, but not a dual citizen) whom the EU authorities have found a novel, immensely cruel, way of punishing for his coverage of, and views on, Palestine.

The German authorities learned a lesson from my case. Not wishing to be answerable in court for any ban on pro-Palestinian voices (similar to the court case I am dragging them through currently), they found another way: A direct sanction by the EU utilising some hitherto unused directive, one introduced at the beginning of the Ukraine war, that allows Brussels to sanction any citizen of the EU it deems to be working for Russian interests. Clinging to the argument that Hüseyin’s website/podcast used to be shown also on Ruptly (among other platforms), they are using this directive aimed at an ‘anti-Russian asset’ to destroy a journalist who dared oppose the Palestinian genocide.

In practice, this means that Hüseyin’s bank account is frozen; that if you or I were to give him cash to buy groceries or make rent then we would be considered his accomplices and subject to similar sanctions; it also means that if he were a civil servant, he would be fired; if he were a student he would be expelled from his university; if he received a pension it would be suspended; if he received any social benefit it would be frozen. It also, astonishingly, means that he cannot leave Germany! Last, but definitely not least, it means that Hüseyin cannot sue his government for turning him into a non-person but only challenge the European Commission in Brussels – where he is not even allowed to go!

Need I say more? Is it not abundantly clear that we live, today, in a nominally liberal Europe where, in a jiffy, your political and human rights can be rescinded, including your right to challenge your government in a court of law?

man HB is libbing out, this is identical to what any generic democrat would put out and you're getting attacked for pointing that out

before someone comes in and inserts words in my mouth no im not saying he should be putting death to in amerikkka in all caps or something like that but idk, put something that actually sounds like a socialist wrote it, power of the people, the masses, literally anything to separate yourself from a bluemaga dem

dont type anything you wouldnt want read out in front of a court room etc etc

not even, we dont even have 2k active users a month lmao

wish i had someone who loved me like bolsonaro loves hospitals

/gen is he prepared for them to bring the full violence of the state down upon him??

lol if armed socialists got into a full on confrontation with ice the news mega would have easily over a 1k comments, you'll know

it's just a turn of phrase, like he needs it so badly it should have been done yesterday instead of today

he needs an armed guard of committed socialists like yesterday to prevent this exact scenario from happening.

i dont really disagree but who though? FRSO seems like an org that would be willing, and maybe even able with how secretive they seem to be, but they're tiny from what i can tell and i'd be very surprised if they want to bring down the state on their head for a DSA member. PSL might have the size (no clue what their new york chapter is like though), but i have seen nothing to suggest that they have any sort of armed wing/training and seem very unwilling to do so, at least from all the protests i've seen. CPUSA are the biggest fraud sheepdog of the democrats of all time, and if DSA (and especially NY DSA) ever provide armed socialists to anyone anywhere i might have a heart attack and die on the spot in shock. who's even left? IMT/RevCom? too busy selling news papers. SRA? it honestly isnt a real org and is pretty small anyways. only other org i can think of is john brown gun club tbh lol

so it'll take a few years to train them

ive always wondered this, why does it take so long to train fighter jet pilots? i understand they're very complicated, ludicrously expensive machines so the last thing you want is an undertrained pilot to lose one of these things through an easily avoidable error, but even still the training time seems crazily long
