Germany on "full democracy" at the same time it bans symbols of Palestinian support and uses the state's violence to contain such manifestations.

Germany bans stuff al the time. It’s a consequence of our history and the historic leniency towards extremist edges. Your example is debatable in it’s execution, the general thought however is not.

Nobody's perfect, and if you're in Germany you should reach out to your politicians about it.

Protesting IS exactly that. Keep licking that boot.

I didn't say not to protest.

In fact protesting is incredibly useful when the calls of many go unheard or ignored.

And having an effective protest is only possible if you can get a lot of people together, so it's best to not shit on people from hello for saying exactly what you think is the "right" thing.

Not to mention having a large community of people reaching out before having to protest is also helpful, so doing good community building is also important.

I'd like to know your sources, because to my knowledge there is no such ban in Germany.

Are you implying that this hasn't also happened recently in the US?

Are you implying two things can’t both be wrong?
