- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Ouch
Thank you
According to the German newspaper TAZ, judges in the Thuringia district of Gera share close ties with AfD politicians, both locally and nationally, quoting statistics of judges deciding in favour of asylum seekers in single-digit percentages. The judges have denied having any right-wing-leaning biases.
It is, alas, basically impossible to nail judges for perversion of justice based on statistics because you have to prove at least reckless intent. Add to that judicial independence and the possibility to do anything are very limited, I think at most stuff like re-distributing judges among districts to even out statistics would be constitutionally viable. Giving a general directive to state attorneys to appeal sentences which seem too harsh or lenient is also an idea, and push come to shove those appeals could be done by a special task force.
"record high"
I mean... Pretty sure there was more racist violence in Germany 80 years ago, but what do I know?
I think it's going by recorded incidents
alles Einzelfälle und die linke Gewalt erst...
Jeder redet immer von Einzelfällen und beschwert sich wenn die Anderen es tun
/s ?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Violence against politicians has been dominating the headlines, but instances of everyday racism and antisemitic attacks are causing German victim advice centres to sound the alarm.
Mayar, a 20-year-old nurse who fled Syria during the war and has lived in Germany for nearly nine years, feels a strong sense of German identity, having grown up there.
Country-wide mass protests were triggered in January when it emerged that AfD members held a secret meeting with German and Austrian far-right figures, including the neo-Nazi leader of the Identitarian movement Martin Sellner, to discuss a "remigration" plan.
Whilst figures released by the Association of Counselling Centres for Victims of Right-Wing, Racist, and Anti-Semitic Violence e.V.
Zobel pointed to a representative study by Prof Dr Dancygier from Princeton University that suggests between 38.7% and 42.5% of hate crime supporters would vote for AfD.
According to investigative outlet Correctiv, "48 AfD representatives and employees at district, state and federal level have recently been involved in violent acts".
The original article contains 1,083 words, the summary contains 162 words. Saved 85%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
The same as in many other countries, too. I mean what could be different when Germany goes far right? /s
Just how many times we need to teach you this lesson, Germany?
But they banned the Nazi salute!!!! Didnt that take care of the problem????????????
I helps. Last week ago a Neonazi was stupid enough to do the Hitler salute and has now to face the consequences.
