nice freedom of speech you got there.
You have the 'freedom' to agree with what Merkel's Fourth Reich dictates you must believe, or else

Ah yes, "the rules"

People like you are the ones leading us down the road of authoritarianism and restricted civil liberties.

>cries about corruption
>cashes checks from the oil cartels



lmfao you gonna prove you have “free speech” by posting crap like this again?







stop crying you sauerkraut freebasing voyeur descendant of joseph talking about overlords

better not tell the thought police, or else this would happen to Heinrich:

Bp are not a cartel, they are far more powerful than that.

absolutely fascinating how some obsessed hacks are trying to make a conversation about silencing people that oppose corrupt lawmakers into a discussion about free speech in germany. desperate shills are desperate...

The "Look over there!" fallacy

well, i guess the desperate attempts to silence anyone exposing obvious bribery and the right's reflex to protect their (corporate) overlords resulted in something positive: now it has become a nationwide story:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/energy-environment/wp/2018/02/12/she-was-naming-lawmakers-who-took-oil-and-gas-money-so-they-barred-her-from-the-public-hearing/

let's see if the "she had to be silenced because she was totally out of line, there's nothing wrong with the legislation" narrative holds up or if we see a fresh spin. maybe she drives a big truck, so it's hypocritical of her to oppose fossil fuel buying politicians to get legislation in their favour?

The legitimacy of the 'silencing' was already explained to you in clear language.

Your ignorant claims about free speech and what it entails turned the issue into a discussion about that.

l2r, cletus. not only was my comment about property rights (i specifically stated that btw), the whole "reading out campaign donations are 'personal comments' and therefore have to be silenced" narrative is a bs excuse to protect your corrupt politicians, you fake libertarian hack. no, the real reason for this going off topic is a desperate deflection attempt...
