the problem here isn't football. It's rampant censoreship and net blocks in the EU.
(same problem different methods in other EU countries. In germany theiy raid your home for harmless political satire)
- thrance 2y agoWhat kind of "harmless political satire"? Where can I find more about this?
- ptrl600 2y ago"Pimmelgate", Stefan Niehoff raid are two examples of hilariously disproportionate law enforcement response for minimal offense.
- kiney 2y agothose are the better k own examples. But its pretty common. Friend of mine got raided for posting a meme that contained a swastika in negative context.
- gambiting 2y ago>>In germany theiy raid your home for harmless political satire) Can you give some examples so we can see what harmless political satire you have in mind?
- smolley 2y agoAndy Grote comes to mind. Someone tweeted "Du bist so 1 Pimmel" (something like "you are such a willy") at him. Got his house searched and everything for that. Issue here being the fact that insulting someone is a criminial offense (hope that's the correct english terminology) in Germany. https://theweek.com/news/world-news/954635/willygate-german-minister-ridiculed https://theweek.com/news/world-news/954635/willygate-german-... e:/ Whether this is actual satire or not is up for debate i guess, but this was in my opinion way overblown
- thaumasiotes 2y ago> "Du bist so 1 Pimmel" (something like "you are such a willy") Sure, it's something like that, but it's more like "thou beest such a willy". ;D
- ohgr 2y agoI travel a lot in the EU and the Internet is a total shambles. Blocked stuff everywhere. Right down to VPNs not even working.
