Please do differentiate between us and our fucking government.

Why aren't Germans protesting the government? Not about Palestine but about their assault on German citizens' free speech?

So many things come to mind. There are protests. We're in transition right now, this is a brand new government. People are afraid that the alternative (!) is literal, outright Nazis and this is the lesser evil. We've been protesting shit for some months but right now I think everybody's tired. No, these are not "good reasons". I don't even know, man.

Germans on Lemmy seem to try their hardest to make it clear there is no difference.
