   A sadly very accurate English language article about the very open and public authoritarian developments in the German government. Some quotes by the German minister of the interior:
   
   > Banks are already being sensitised. Financial structures are being analysed in detail, but we are coming up against legal limits. At present, financial investigations are limited to incitement to hatred and violence. That is not enough. I therefore want to amend the law to ensure that the potential threat is taken into account. This involves other factors such as potential for action and social influence. We also need to make procedures faster and less bureaucratic.
   
   > Those who mock the state must have to deal with a strong state, which means consistently prosecuting and investigating every offence. This can be done not only by the police, but also by the regulatory authorities such as the catering or business supervisory authorities.

     It's blocked behind a pay wall, but I think I got the jist.
     
     Yeah that's pretty pathetic.

     @mrsaturday yeah, I think so too. The people who are not on board left long ago, or are leaving now.

     @lain As much as we can try to legislate or tweak certain cultural aspects out of nations, some things will always remain the same. It doesn't help that the Germans that just wanted to be left alone largely left after 1848.

     Are they called GoZis in English yet? Globalist Socialism is such a fad in the West. Communism with Chinese characteristics is basically the same thing they figured out in old Germany. A party member overseeing every business and transaction. Nails that stick up will be violated.

     Just look at nationalization of luxury hotels if you can’t see nothing else… That’s something everyone can see if the financial news is too much much jargon.

     The milder version being "As a German, ..."

     You've never done the thing I expect of all Germans. Start a social media post with "We Germans..." and speak for the people as a whole. I am disapoint.
